I just hope he stickt 100% to stagehunting at the Tour. Two years ago, I would have believed he could have gotten a good result, but now - with his back injury, and Pogacar getting involved in stuff - I don't. However, I suppose there's a possibility that the French public will expect him to at least try for the GC, but there's a pretty easy solution to that:
It's a well-known fact that he's not exactly great in the crosswinds, so he can hope it's windy on stage 2, then he can just chill at the back while they go over the bridge, while Küng sticks Gaudu in his pocket, and gets him across.
