Takes only one rider not able to brake and miss a corner because of frozen fingers for him to be right.

Could be but I hate hate hate Lefevere so whatever he says I won't react on what he says I will just call him out.

with an helicopter?
There is no road. You can't use Umbrail Pass now. It goes to Switzerland. Too many problems.

It's not possible to skip it though. It's the reason the Stelvio is there, to be able to get from A to B.

If Stelvio descent is too dangerous they will have to finish on the Stelvio somewhere or just cancel today.

I guess we see what happens at Bormio, if they decide to stop, that would be the logical place, not leave everyone atop a summit freezing in the snow.

But if they all get down the Gavia without incident, no real reason to stop. They all knew it would be cold, just like it was last year.
