The guy doesnt really seem to catch a break anymore. Suboptimal preperation for the Giro, no start at the Vuelta cos of a UTI, probably still feeling the impact of it at the Deutschland Tour as he cant keep up with the best. In between that results that are okish but still way below what we have seen from him in the past.
After apparently reaching his peak with 26/27 could it be that he just has physically declined now that he is 29?
Maybe he burned out, in 2018 and 2019 he was one of the riders who would be in peak shape from February to October, being ultra skinny and riding e.g. the TdF 2020 clearly injured maybe didn't help it either.
