Hes doing it for CN memes manWilco throwing away his jacket isn't exactly a 200 IQ move.
He already proved before that he isn't the brightest rider... Like yesterday closing Hindley too soon..Wilco throwing away his jacket isn't exactly a 200 IQ move.
Thats why I wrote - unpopular opinion. And I definitely get it. But Kelderman has limited his losses well in the last kilometers, has 2:41 on Hindley and 2:42 on Tao with a ITT still to come. Hindley actually has to distance Tao by more than 1 minute if he wants to stay ahead of him in the final stage.No way. I couldn't possibly disagree more strongly. This is probably Hindley's one chance in his life to win a GT, you don't give that up.

Don't forget rule number one of the Giro. Never trust the GPS.Kelderman has taken back some crucial time in the descent, I'm guessing Dennis drills it until the climb now

No he doesn't need a minute, it's a last stage, pan flat 15km TT. Fatigue matters more than TT ability. Dumoulin back in 2017 took 1.10 off Quintana, but that was twice the length. Hindley won't lose more than 40s.Thats why I wrote - unpopular opinion. And I definitely get it.

He may yet make the podium, would be an incredible feat.Almeida holding is own on the descent. He's clearly some way off in climbing but he still looks like keeping his head cool instead of panicking and throwing everything out the window.
Really proud to see him go down fighting like this
I think Ineos figures they have it in the bag (yes, I said it!), and taking it easy on the descent.
Have what in the bag?
They are riding for GC, not just the stage win, so putting time into Kelderman is important!
