My personal Make A Wish Foundation scenario:
Pogacar nukes Cipressa, as he will as well. MvdP follows, along with Pedersen (I've gained more and more respect for him and the way he kills himself for his teammates every chance he gets).
They actually work with Pogi, and the trio creates an epic version. As for the winner, I wouldn't mind whoever among those three. I love MvdP, he's generational. Pedersen earning his first monument would be fantastic as well. Pog will win it regardless one year, dont mind leaving the cannibal hungry for more he's still only 26.
