Strong performance again, by Roglič and his team, on stage 15. A lot of people are mentioning Giro, and on how Roglič performed bad in the last week. He was isolated through the whole race, crashed a couple of times and due to bad nutrition caught stomach issues, still finishing on the podium. Where i feel Roglič and TJV matured is team support. TJV utilizing best riders to help Roglič and in addition this is the first time i really feel Roglič is utilizing his team, as GC contender should on a GT race. It's great to see, on just how much work Martin is investing during the race and on how the rest of the team guards the position, until the last climb. After Roglič needs to take over, to perform great against GC rivals, and he delivers. He doesn't want to play tactical games too much. He knows, he has to cope with the strongest GC rival on the stage, and he does just that. Kuss taking a stage win, well deserved and for sure that will boost the morale in TJV. I have a feeling Pogačar and López will start to play a lot of games, fighting for the white jersey. As for the closest rival to Roglič, Valverde is still in great shape.
Still long way to go, a lot of climbing ahead tomorrow. Lets hope all stay healthy and looking forward to some good cycling ahead.
