Yep. Denz coming back from the break to drill the entrance of the climb and Martinez waiting for Rogla's group shortly after the top was great. The team did all they could to make this climb count as much as possible.Very good job today by Bora for timing. Some due to chance but they were all in the mix. Hopefully they can keep fairly fresh for the upcoming weekend!
Lipo is a diesel climber, he was amazing in Granada. He was actually pulling on 1st Hazallanas and the 5 km before the climb proper start for the last time and still managed to go with the group. He will be the best man starting from Friday againLipowitz was useless again, tho
Taking Rogla's wheel until the elastic snaps is actually useful.Lipowitz was useless again, tho
Rogle got only a few years left at this level. Next year may be the last so it makes sense to sign Remco.Well I don't know what to think about that. On the one hand it might be cool to see remco+roglic fight 2-1-1 against pog and vinge. On the other hand pog and vinge might just brainlessly power through and make any tactics obsolete, and with remco and roglic on the same team a GT where the other two are not present becomes boring as well. If RB figures out how to give them wings and make the tdf a real four-way-fight, I'm on board!
I guess it pretty much only works to go to Red Bull for him, as Remco is also heavily tied to Specialized. And his TT setup could remain intact, I'm not sure he's keen on another bike there.Any team with a lot of money should be pursuing Remco. He'd be great at Red Bull, and the company would probably kill to have him as a spokesman.
