Pogi says he is going to attack on the Capo Berta or maybe even the Turchino. You thought he was joking in Strade Bianche and he wasn't. Cyclingnews think he's joking, excited for the reaction when he pulls it off

@mou
Is this legit or is it BULLSHlT?
Why would you ask him when we have already heard it from Pogi himself

""I'm going to attack on the Capo Berta or even the Turchino…" he joked to Cyclingnews and other media behind the stage of the team presentation with a mischievous smile."


They think he is joking but it's going to happen

Perhaps even his team think he is joking. But he's not

If possible. And assuming his lieutenants have the ability to survive this pace. And with energy necessary to assist on the cipressa. Maybe he will shed at least enough top level domestiques for the opposing favorites. And maybe he can shed those who can outsprint him. And maybe he can shred the legs of top favorites who manage to be with him after the poggio.

It's the best chance for Pogacar. 1.7 km at 7%.
Cipressa and poggio are too easy.

Poggi knows Poggio is not enough. Cipressa actually has one steeper moment so if UAE drill for the first part of the climb then who knows. Capo Berta is most suiting indeed but guys will still have plenty of helpers and then there are two flat sections left in the last 39 km.
