Can't ask for a much better setup going into the final stage for GC combat, with the current placings. Remco can still win, but Jorgenson is in great position. I think McNulty has done a great job of defending the leader's jersey, but he might still be suffering a bit from the illness he picked up at UAE. Jay Vine didn't look well, today. Same for Almeida. Team flu?

Think the weather is against Vine and Almeida. I have see nothing to indicate McNulty is suffering from his illness, just not his terrain.
 
Still impressive to me how much Evenepoel improved his sprint. Can't be that long ago it was considered a bit of a joke?

He's definitely improved his explosivity over the last couple of years. Now it's really good for a GC guy, not on the level of some yolo accelerations by Pogacar though.

Tomorrow should be fireworks, the race is still wide open. Short and crazy stage. I'm expecting interesting action from Peile on (last 45 km). Evenepoel's attack is on the cards.
 
It is very likely the race will be in pieces quite early tomorrow.

Those who have multiple riders could have an advantange.

Both Vlasov and Kelderman looked very good today for their respective teams, which is good for both Roglic and Jorgenson.e
That's why I'd like Mads Pederson and Jasper Stuyven in my team for that early stage part tomorrow ......race will b won before the last climb
