He was better even on Cipressa.

Good thing he’ll race soon and can potentially jump up the leadership ladder.

 

[SHAD0W93]

Roglic was better in Milano Torino than Remco here IMO

Sub 200 km basically unipuerto stage, his bread and butter. Evenepoel at least has the “excuse” of crashing

 

[MLKarlos]

Tuckwell is better than Boiches in this roll and has shown it in Catalunya

He was really strong

*** blew up in Germany post Tour with Lipowtiz, still is but media is being managed correctly.

No, he did not.

So who will be the Tour leader?
Remco? (the biggest balls)
Lipo? (supported by the sponsors)
Rogla? (called up from vacations in the last moment to save the situation)
Hindley? (as a compromise between the previous three)
Or maybe that Etxebarria guy? (who'll lead the Basque Race with Rogla as a super dom )
The stakes are high: their leader (surrounded by such an armada) will be in the pole position to win the Tour!

Based on what we have seen so far they will go with Remco and Lipo and ride for dominant two 2nd places and 7th and 9th in GC. But pretty dominant.

And why wouldn't they finish 3rd and 4th?

 

[QueenStagiaire]

And why wouldn't they finish 3rd and 4th?

Because they‘re not a certain amazing ex-ski jumper.

They are not the 3rd and 4th best GT riders.

Who are?

 

[Divergence]

Rog, Ayuso, IDT and a few others are certainly better

 

[YavorD]

Rog, Ayuso, IDT and a few others are certainly better

Okay, making a case that Ayuso is better GT rider than Evenepoel is strange.
Ayuso is better one week rider (results speak for themselves), but in GTs, that's steep .


But yes, the chances of Evenepoel not competing for the GC podium are probably (well) above 50%, so good amount of riders are better bet than him.
