I don't know, I think the final climb is too much for the current weight Sagan. It was perfect for the young, lighter Sagan, but that is long gone....Serpentin said:

He will not even do Strade
Patxi Vila says that Strade is the hardest race of them all and the one that takes the biggest toll - especially if it's rainy like last year. And given that they want Sagan to stay in condition until Liège this year, they have decided that his first race will be Tirreno-Adriatico.
Strade is a big hole in his palmarès and it still pisses me off that Moreno Moser was allowed to take it in 2013 when Sagan could have won it with two fingers in his nose.

Yeah, okay, it was a comparable way to how Jungels won Liège last year - having the best rider behind, ruining all collaboration.
So maybe not the best word, but in some way, the tactics apparently did allow him to try his own instead of just setting up Sagan.
But at that time it was difficult to foresee that Sagan wouldn't easily win the race another year.

Yup. It just has the rainbow trim on the sleeves for a former World Champ.DNP-Old said:

Not sure if the course change in LBL has increased his chances. With the traditionally conservative racing I'd see him winning, but this year the peloton will attack from afar. Don't see Sagan keeping up in that case.Leinster said:
