Wait, so arguably his best performance in at least two years, Suisse 2011, was whilst he was devastated by illness?
Yet he wasn't able to stay with a select group on any climb in 2009 or 2010, nor get close to top10 in a decent ITT. Both these feats he achieved in Switzerland. Overall he faded quickly but the ITT was the final day, so much for jelly legs.
And then he had the "brutal" treatment and in just 6-7 weeks he was able to not only recover, but do all the training necessary to be in GT winning shape.
What hogwash.
