Re:
Historically nobody wins the Tour at 22 years of age. Anquetil, Fignon and Gimondi were 23 and Hinault and Merckx were 24 when they won their first. LeMond was 25. The last 22-year-old to win the Tour was Romain Maes in 1935. Era has nothing to do with it. If Egan Bernal was riding for a different team I wouldn't be at all surprised to see him join the ranks of very young Tour winners this year or next year.macbindle said:Different era, different pressures.
Nobody wins a tour at 22 years old these days.
