I just hope that the time lost because of that crash won't haunt him in the end...Salvarani said:Hope he will be strong in the third week. Could gain some more time back and who knows. A lot of climbing left.

Landa could leave the team...Valv.Piti said:With Carapaz and Quintana gona, Landa is the best GC rider on Movistar next year.
He hasn't done anyrhing GC wise in the Vuelta and showed already two times that he can be competitive at least for a podium in both Giro and Tour, why should he change his approach? The ones that needs to avoid the Tour are the riders that waste a season to focus on the Tour like Bardet and Pinot, not him.Red Rick said:I would hope Landa goes Giro/Vuelta unless the routes indicate otherwise. He's done two very good Tours after having done the Giro, but I don't think the race suits him especially with his tendency to lose a truckload of time in early stages. And even if he was good this Tour, the freshness was kinda gone.
I'd really hope he stays at Movistar honestly
This is the third best axe scene I have seen since The Shining!Cycling may be in a coma but Landismo is alive.

However, if Landa doesn't have any use for that roller setup anymore could I still use it?
Wouldn't be surprised if Froome still has Wouts testicles.
Movistar riders are an old Valverde, a Mas that way overachieved in the Vuelta 2 years ago, and Soler... They will not feature in the Gt GC top ranks even if they are in their best form.After Burgos and what we've seen in Dauphiné so far, he's clearly the best among his countrymates. Axing the roller has worked for him. Spain's lockdown only affects to Movistar riders.

Damn...Mikel. All was set up perfectly and then you did me dirty like that...Landa is going to attack today.
