The bald fraud is not a fraud after all? Or Ayuso is already peaking in March just like last year?
No mate, the bald fraud is still a scammer. Do you remember how he was beating his chest after Christen won the stage in Algarve? Well, 3 days later Christen was smashed in the TT. Ayuso is a great talent but he will never reach his full potential while being coached by Mr. San Millan.

"I've never been better. I'm at my best, but that doesn't mean I think I'm at my peak of form. The leap I've made this winter has been the biggest, by far, of all the ones I've made in the pros. I think I still have a margin, and this was my most relaxed winter.

Hello 👋 is there anybody here? Roglic, remco, jonas are u here... One of the best teenage sensation has now got the right training regimen. Good luck!

Not sure why you posted this in the Pogacar thread, so I'll answer here.

I'm looking forward to see him ride in the Giro, but he still has to proof he's able to challenge the current top 5 in GT's for a TDF podium.

So for you, Ayuso is the future Giro winner?

Yes, just look back from where jonas came from. He was at best a secondary domestique behind kuss in vuelta 2020 and won the tour 2 years later. I believe if a talent gets the right stimuli it can go to the top.

The way up for those two couldn't be further from each other. But not disregarding that things can move fast.

Visma sent Vingegaard off to an "academy" after his Tour of Poland meltdown. Turned him around or more likely, calmed him down, but even so he had a babysitter at breakfast time to make sure he ate his Weetabix. One day we might find out what that "academy" was.

While I still have my doubts about Ayuso, there are some that seem a bit too eager in writing him off as a GT winner.

Its true that his development in the last two seasons hasn't exactly been great but its also worth remembering that he had his fair share of bad luck in those seasons and yet at 22, he has already stepped into a GT podium, got a top5 and won one of the big7 one week stage races.

It remains to be seen if he will be able to win this Giro but he does seem to have improved this season, even though Tirreno and especially Catalunya will tell us more about that.

Damn, Catalunya will have a very good start list. Ayuso, Yates, Vingegaard, Roglic...also Landa, Mas, Carapaz..

I mean, mentioning these mere mortals alongside Vingegaard is ridiculous but yeah.

What is considered Ayuso's best climbing performance to date?
Something from the 2022 Vuelta?

This guy is obnoxious. He is blaming his team for being alone and having to respond to everyone. My biggest hope in the giro is seeing this guy getting destroyed in the mountains.

He is not so likable I agree. But to be fair he is right today. He should have had 2-3 teams mates.
