Ramira said:I have to say I did expect Evans to be up there because he's shown the last 2 years he has quite a punch on short hills. That being said it does seem Evans is on good form and I'm happy for him and his fans.
However I don't see him beating Andy or Alberto unless something serious happens to them. But if he can keep the form he appears to have right now going he's a serious contender for the final podium place, which would be a pretty good showing.
Exactly, While I don't think Evans winning the Tour would exactly be "sign of the apocalypse" unlikely" Evans will need a lot more than 1,17 to beat Contador, barring tiredness from the Giro and he has taken no time on Andy. What matters most is probably his gain compared to Sanchez in the contest for third.
