He was this year worse in the ITT than in the mountains. In Romandie he was quite sick...rain is not good for him...but at the begining he did not bad in the second hardest stage of the race, finishing in a second group.
At the moment he has no improved that, I hope he make a progression in this race anyway..Maybe he is overtrained..but maybe it must be like that thinking in his recovery for the future.
If he said here his main objetive is to see if he can put his training nubers in the mountains at the race..I thinbk tomorrow he wont have the necessary motivation for an ITT to perform well, but of course he will try to do well.
