No, It is not the only way he can win. You have to choose the stepedt part of those soft climbs tk attack really hard, but once you are in a soft oart if VdP IS at your wheel he must be at his wheel, always at his wheel..if he stop, no problem, maybe another rider attack later, and MVDP as the main favourite and stronger Rider than Pogi has to attack...
Second..in the flat between Cipresa and Poggio , with 1 minute advantage..why to pull even more than MVDP??? Why??? That very stupid, he is a better Sprinter and apoggio is a soft climbs to drop him..
He attacked to times on the Poggio, the second one in a flat part after stop very little and didnt take really time at another wheel..that is very stupid...and at the end, when you are alone with MVDP after apoggio, always at his wheel...always, and he was pulling a lot trying Ganna didnt conet, as he want to be second...with Ganna he had a chance, MVDP has to take care of 2 Riders, but just with MVDP and pulling...no way, NO WAY.
It is not attack and attack as crazy, It is to attack when you can make pain and if dont work stop and look for a mistake of your rival.
Thay didnt use welnl the team. Del Toro??? Burbthat is another history, even doping the same the team he had a chance and he refused that chance riding as a junior. He is stil a Júnior..with the level of Merckx bur no more than a junior.
I really wanted he won this race, i really wanted he get all monuments. But he has to improve tactically for this race.
