Milan
Vingegaard
Someone from a breakaway Visma offload the jersey to after stage 2. I'll take a punt on Leknessund for that one, but there are dozens of candidates.

4 seems most likely, if Vibgegaard takes it on Blockhaus

1% chance he takes a flyer on stage 2 cause he disrespects the field that much

I just had to interview somebody. How do I explain that I was not making notes on their responses as I was investigating the run-in to blockhaus

You are a charming character, act like you understand everything they say while you secretly analyse stages and breakaway candidates.

I bet on Vingegaard dropping everyone on the final climb. 2.5k at 9% in the middle is plenty, and knowing Visma their plan will be to choke the competition as early as possible so that they can go into energy saving mode as early as possible too.
Big ask to drop all of Narvaez, Christen and vine if we just consider UAE

With 2x6s available at the Red Bull sprint, the jersey after stage 2 could also go to someone who targets those. I guess everyone who takes a day #1 finish line bonus will be dropped anyway.
