There is plenty wrong with the PCS algorithm for putting a number of field quality, but they rate this as 733, which puts it in 12th place for races over the last year, between the Omloop and the UAE Tour.
But it only came 13th of the 2019 races, 19th in 2018, and 25th the year before that.
Maybe the depth here is never that great.
He would have to contest the proper flat bunch sprints to stand a chance but I would not rule him out of contending.I would include Matthews in that battle as well..
I think this year is the first year in like 5 years the Tour had the strongest podium of the 3 GTs.
Hardly the same Froome in the Tour as in the Giro.What about 2018?
We thought the same about the Vuelta last year and we saw what happened. Vlasov will win the Giro and will go on to win the Tour next year!
Can someone explain to me this Weening meme? I recall it was popular several years ago but I don't know where it came from.Just seen my mainest man is riding!

I think it's a solid 5! For no other reason than the fact that it contains a shark, a bird, a mountain, a waterfall, and a Christian holiday! Unfortunately, we already lost the superhero.
Pfingsten for the Christian holiday, i 'd think.I'm struggling there.
I'm guessing that you are claiming Nibali as the fish (shark), and either Fuglsang or Swift could be the bird.
Struggling to find a mountain, a waterfall of a Christian festival.
There is a deer, a castle, a tower and some coals in there though.

I should have known Foss and Bjerg (is there no distinction between mountain and hill in Germanic languages?), but I wouldn't have recognised Pfingsten as Pentecost (etymology?Birdsong is, of course, the bird; Swift is just bloody fast.
Foss is the waterfall.
Logic got the Christian holiday and the mountain.
Who are the deer, the castle, the tower, and the coals?
