Let's see. Yates still out with concussion and a lot can happen to the others.. I'm sure McNulty are first in line as backup!
Another win today in Romandie TT. I had thought he was deliberately losing time in the first two days to save himself for a stage win, but apparently he came here with GC aspirations and was just bad to start.
Ironically his disappointing GC form basically offered him the stage win on a silver platter.
Mcnulty won the NC ITT 33,7km
53,6km/u average
Powless 3e at 1:02
6e win for Mcnulty this year

America, continuing their campaign against GdI even with Tour of California being cancelled.
He's really developing nicely, without crazy expectations. He'll probably never win a GT but there's a lot of races he can win. Maybe someday LBL or Lombardia.
Stites seems like a good rider on a conti team, wonder if hell make a move up next year
So is everyone else except Roglic. at some point in the next 10 years he could have a shot. He’s got the characteristics to be best of the rest.
How many times do we have to see Roglic struggle at monuments before he’s put in the next group?
He’s still a contender in LBL and lombardia if he targets them. But ask me again next year….
Guys please make it more clear when you are discussing Rogla in some thread. I almost missed it.

He was saving himself for this instead of helping his teammate win Romandie. Classic UAE rider
I didn’t watch it that closely but didn’t UAE have a stacked team in Romandie with guys like Yates as final domestique, and McNulty rode the whole way except DNF on the final sprint stage?

McNulty rode the whole race in the grupetto, except for the ITT, where he suddenly found some magic legs and won the stage.
The national Road race is Saturday, he certainly has chance there.
Hopefully he will ride in Dauphine or Suisse next month

He didn't find magical legs, he found the only part of the day the roads were dry, while all other favorites had to ride in the rain and/or on wet roads. No magical legs. Looking at the times of other riders in the top 10, who did ride in the rain, there is no way he would have won that TT in equal conditions.

He was still going full throttle through the ITT for no reason at all, instead of conserving his energy and helping his team win the race, while he was always one of the first to be dropped in the other stages.
Yes, but him winning was not due to magic legs. He got lucky with the weather. That short downhill section in the rain alone cost others 10 seconds.

'Magic legs' comment was sarcastic. Considering how easily he had been dropped on an easy cat 2 climb the day before, he was surely saving himself for ITT. Which shows what kind of teammate he is. There's a reason why he hasn't raced with Pog since the 2022 Tour.
I mean, he did go really hard on that stage for Pog while he was sick earlier in the race.
