Do you really think those climbers can rip the peloton in Berta? They need roulers to make the race hard in the last 150 km.
Yes berta is 2km 7% climb and he is more than capable of shredding the peleton. But how do u think roulers can make the race hard in last 150 kms when crosswinds almost never crossed their mind to msr?

Politt and Vermeersch would be my ideal riders to put in the last two spots but yeah, PCS has Vermeersch listed for some cobbled classics. If that's the case, they should have Bjerg.

Also, I think McNulty will be a question mark after he DNF'd Paris-Nice. If he's replaced, I'd love for Del Toro to take his spot.

Well, we didn’t have to wait long. Surprised at Laengen’s inclusion but as long as he does the job of positioning the UAE guys before Cipressa, then I can’t complain. And then finally, Politt is in the lineup. He should always be there at MSR anyways.

Also nice to see Del Toro there.
No, Laengen is to do the dirty work. He won't survive Capo Berta.
