Maybe they didn't prepare a bag for his 3rd week which is why they are riding for Ayuso, if he tanks 25 minutes tomorrow we will know.
That didn't age well.

The whole UAE seems relatively weak after the rest day (except maybe Majka and Del Toro). I really doubt IDT has the privilege to use a blood bag... yet.

He's riding his first GC as a second choice leader, no way they prepared anything special for him this time.

Ayuso got the dodgy one Iban Mayo style :laughing:

Yeah these lot riding a bit with the breaks on is making for cracking racing, Gee being in the mix for the win doesn't do much for Coffeeplanter's (rip) 'they've lost the carbonmonoxide edge' theory though.
 
It's weird I had not put two and two together as it's so logically easy; the reason UAE are tactically a disaster is of course because they prefer to solve every problem clinically.

If I am completely cynical for a moment...

... suddenly I'm not convinced cycling would die if UAE or Pog would be found guilty. Because they're from UAE. It's not the same kind of blow like Armstrong. UAE isn't from the west, but cycling and its fans are. UAE could be the perfect political scapegoat.
