And without Rovny and Trofimov being unbelievably strong today his attack would have likely gone nowhere.
What about the astana riding for no reason variable? Surely that's not normal eh mate?
Pretty sure rovny and trofi being beasts was an enormous factor but if astana didn't ride which would be the normal standard, then even a standar rovny and trofi was more than enough
What was wrong with Astana riding? They are riding for Scarponi's GC place. A perfectly normal tactic considering they were the only team with numbers to help.
