Yeah, no, I agree. Favourite clearly is Bernal now, Vlasov also looks good and Landa, And I wouldn't write off Yates yet, it was a somewhat strange day. Then maybe Evenepoel. That would be my take for now.
Carthy has been 3th at the Vuelta. He has been very strong so far, so...he counts at least like those people. Yates loses 11 seconds in a dat with lot of rain.. he is for sure not out....that has no sense. Even almeida could be again on GC with a break...you never knows..But I think he is no so styrong in the moiuntains as other people. This Giro has better level than last one

Juul--Jensen:
If per chance you happen to read this comment, I feel for you. I was hoping you'd pull it off and take the stage win; but nevertheless, that was one hell of a ride. Bravo.

I was so hoping he'd win! I might be slightly biased here, but I also just generally loves it when a domestique goes and naps a big win.

Everyone else in the GC: Moving up, or down, like crazy.

Vlasov: I like 7th. 7th is a good placing!

We probably shouldn't make too many assesements based on this stage alone. Some riders might have been more affected by the weather than others, and if they only lost 11-44 seconds it could have been worse. We should have a clearer picture after Thursday's stage. Hindley wasn't a world-beater in the beginning last year's Giro, but he obviously wasn't a team leader at that point either.

Also probably the only time that you'll see Bettiol loosing one place on the gc while arriving in the same group as Remco and Yates on a MTF.
