Plenty of talent and it is still early days for him. Not totally convinced yet he will be successful in grand tours.

No WC ITT? The route suits him and he just finished 2nd in a tour de france TT. I think he would have a chance to get a medal.damian13ster said:Plouay --> Tour of Britain --> TTT in WC ---> Individual Race in WC --->???---> Season end in Lombardy is his schedule
I fear Bodnar won't have a big chance either because of the climb at the end of the route.damian13ster said:The schedule is from his live feed on youtube. He was non-committal when it comes to ITT.
To paraphrase, he said Plouay --> Britain --> TTT ........didnt say anything specific about ITT or individual race, and after that he answered the question about end of the season which he said will be in Lombardy.
So no idea whether he will go to ITT. Poland has Bodnar and Bialoblocki as possible contestants as well, although Kwiato > Bialoblocki imho, but if he doesn't see a chance for a podium then why bother going at all?

We should keep in mind what CF said during last TdF: I'm not sure who should be a team leader, who should be a teammate..
very close, last year Caruso was 6s faster than Kwiatkovski. It will be very close. The final TT will have more impact than it used to, last time only GVA and Sagan made similar duel, but that time the MTF was cancelled.huge said:How is Kwiato TTing compared to Caruso's?
