Funny thing is, just a week ago some were like "oh poor little Alberto it would be cool if he could at least finish the race"
And now they are acting like he just won the Tour.
Imo he is finished where he should have finished, Kwia already has 10+ race days on his legs and is a massive talent suited to this kind of race so it's "normal" to lose to him in GC (although imo he should have been able to follow him on stage 2). And finished just ahead of Costa who wants to fight for the top 5 of the Tour so is a "direct" rival for july.
Let's see how he does in Tirreno and Catalunya against Froome and under normal circumstances he should win Pais Vasco .

Arredondo said:Luckily for him this climb was relatively short, i don't know if he can sustain a long range effort.
Against Froome, no, but he should beat Nibbles in the mountains.
