I think he'll be a helper and stage hunter

 

[velaso montador]

Indeed but its still a questionmark how he will fare in 3 weeks racing and how he recovers thats what im most interessted in.
Wouldnt be surprised if he won a stage like you say agree.

I can’t wait to see what Giannetti does with this talented youngster. Poor Poggy going to be discarded soon

That's awesome!! For me watching a 20 year old kid from a dusty Mexican town.. First year pro, first professional race and gets a win. First pro season and already has multiple wins..but besides getting a contract extension, when he needs advice he can ask so, so many people!! Can't imagine having Pogacar to tune my time trial technique, asking Pog or Yates..am I doing this right..and team has multiple under 23 yo riders, each w talent and ambition!! No matter what happens for Del Toro at the Vuelta his season is an overwhelming success!!

I'm sure he'll be pushing 7w / kg next season under the direction of his leader Giannetti and mentor Pogi! Exciting times! I wonder if he could do those numbers right now or if they'll keep it under wraps for unleashing next season. I'm excited for the kid, I like watching him.

Anyone knows what's up with Del Toro? He was supposed to start hos season in AlUla Tour, but now he's been removed from the startlist.

More reasonable if you wanna ride decent spring one week stage races + Giro.

Yeah, I suppose so. Could be the reason. He did burn out pretty fast after his great start to the season last year.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Regression due to incompetent administration and fraudulent coaching, should've stayed at A.R. Monex!

 

[Potomac]

He had something like 1100 uci points before May last year, and "only" 300 or so afterwards.

 

[Unchained]

Del ,Toro stumbled,,, cancelled for Alula has a race 3 days later..and still penciled in for Giro..and penciled is important because UAE has erased him from 3 races,, late 2024, and already moved his schedule forward for 2025..

It's a good rule, and it is proper to enforce it in this case. Football players are also not allowed to take their shirt off when celebrating a goal.

Apart from the fact that his zipper might very well have been broken.

I don't think so, and even if that was the case, 200 CHF fine for a broken zipper is good and proper too.

It's good and proper to give someone a fine for something they can't help? Riiiiight, then...

Definitely looks broken:

It broke when he unzipped it

 

[RedheadDane]

It broke when he unzipped it

Yes, it broke when he unzipped it... at some earlier point during the race. Not like he unzipped just before going over the line.
