I watched the stage today live and obviously there were tons of crashes and.a lot of hard efforts. Opinions on who will suffer and who will benefit?
 
Kwiatkowski had to chase a lot. Lost contact early on and had to fight back and then he had a mechanical in the second to last cobbles-section. But on the other hand, he gains more and more confidence in his abilities. Not sure if he can keep his form for 3 weeks this year?
So for the moment I think he's fine but what about in 12 days?
