There will be plenty to do with break management because of the yellow jersey. They may just let it out being down on numbers nowNow, the Tour will start. What are the odds of UAE going crazy tomorrow?
Imo super low, the last climbs tomorrow are easy, plus without almeida they have to pick very few stages to focus onNow, the Tour will start. What are the odds of UAE going crazy tomorrow?

Do you think they will put a rider in the break and Matteo will try to bridge?Small chances. it's more likely that Visma will try something.

I hope not. He should let his team do the work and maintain a 1 minute gap. Pogacar can close that easily.If they can get Matteo in the break they won’t need to work at all. For this reason, pogi will attend very closely to his wheel

This. Pogacar will launch his attack with 5.5 km to go on Hautacam. He can gain 1'30" on Matteo. In the MTT, he will lose another 1'15". So more than 4' behind Pogacar.Matteo will go in the break tomorrow at some point, no doubt about that. Use your team, don't ever panic and don't ever chase him. Has a really good squad for medium mountains despite Almeida being out. He won't be a thread at all in the long run, stage 12 and 13 is around 4 minutes already.
Soler, Sivakov, Yates and Narvaez are good enough to control tomorrow.Sure, if his team is still strong enough they should do the job. He may get a bit isolated by Visma, especially without Almeida (more likely in higher mountains than tomorrow).
I really don’t think they can allow Jorgensen into the break and this is one of 3 total guys they need to attend to carefully.Matteo will go in the break tomorrow at some point, no doubt about that.

Pogi must save energy for Hautacam.
On Wednesday the battle will be about history.
Tadej Pogacar vs Bjarn Riis.
Cement the legacy as the greatest climber who has ever walked this planet
Thursday my friend!Pogi must save energy for Hautacam.

Tomorrow without Almeida is the second most dangerous day for Pogacar in this Tour.
He needs to be smart and not chase Jorgenson like a mad dog.
