This is (in my humble opinion) a strange pole. Sagan did seem to have great potential, although he's passing now beyond the "potential" stage of his career. He seems to consistently lack power at the business end of the major one day races, and since his career is supposed to be that of a monuments rider, this is a serious problem. Maybe he'll solve this problem in the future but based on results, the order should be:
Kwaitowski (WC and Amstel, and easily out-powered Sagan for last year's Strade Bianche, tied with
Martin, who has two monuments and would have three if he hadn't crashed at the end of last year's LBL,
GVA
and then Costa, Sagan and Thomas as pretty much equal.
Where do you fit Alaphillipe in, or Kristoff, or Degenkolb?
