Too many kms of ITT for Masnada at the Tour, I am a realist. A shame to waste him today, maybe he is not as strong or exciting as remco but it was pointless for him to pullI heard Masnada is training in the Giro in order to lead DQS at the Tour?
Only Bernal, no Roglic.It's only the Giro... Wait till he rides the Tour.
Wheelsucking Bernal in a headwind and make 0 pulls doesnt indicate anything about his climbing level, but he is smart. We see his true climbing level on the Giau and the Zoncolan.To me the only real concern is his bike handling / descending skills.
At one point Ineos will try to exploit this, have the whole team attack on a descent and see what happens. If Remco gets distanced and Ineos still has Ganna/Castro/Moscon in the valley it's game over.
Plus I hope he's well prepared for the strade bianche stage. That's a key point of the race. Gaps could be very big, especially in bad weather.
His climbing level is obviously very good already.
If there was any justice in having to eat crow for making stupid remarks without consequences, I would be serving it up to all the “It’s just like the flu” loudmouths from a year ago, including a couple at my worplace!Yeah it's sometimes annoying that people have constantly typed 'wait until he rides a WT race' 'wait until it's not Tour de Pologne' and yet never have to publicly eat crow for it. But that's the internet for you.
I agree. Begin a pretty good wheelsucker myself, I can only testify that it enables me to follow anyone on the biggest climbs with ease.Wheelsucking Bernal in a headwind and make 0 pulls doesnt indicate anything about his climbing level, but he is smart.

It's still a week to go but for now there's no rain forecasted.Plus I hope he's well prepared for the strade bianche stage. That's a key point of the race. Gaps could be very big, especially in bad weather.
Well, he was capable of following Bernal on a climb, a thing that all the other GC riders except himself, Martin and Ciccone didn't do.Wheelsucking Bernal in a headwind and make 0 pulls doesnt indicate anything about his climbing level, but he is smart.

If following Bernal says nothing about the climbing level, why were Yates and Vlasov distanced?Wheelsucking Bernal in a headwind and make 0 pulls doesnt indicate anything about his climbing level, but he is smart. We see his true climbing level on the Giau and the Zoncolan.
I think bernal did have more power left. Had he already made a gap he would have increased it on the last 2km. But he didn't get the gap, so it was pointless to fight against the wind and give up the bonus seconds.I wonder if Bernal has an idea on how to beat Evenepoel.
I really do not mean to be insulting but how old are you?There is no lack of TT, there is a 30k TT at the end which Remco probably gains 1.20-1.30 on Bernal
It looked like so easy, he has to follow Bernal till Milan ITT.The hype is real, so far he has performed a lot better than i expected. Now he is the clear favorite to win this Giro, how absurd isn't that?
No matter that the other favorites really doesn't seem to have hit their form, its still super impressive
NiceI really do not mean to be insulting but how old are you?
38kms of TT is an historical low.
This giro favors climbers by far. If Remco is competitive it is even more impressive...
You took 'lack of TT' way too literally. It's embarassing. Everyone else knew perfectly what Big Doopie meant.Niceare you ok?
Lol, that is hardly lack of a TT then is it ?when one of the favorites are so clear favorite in that discipline compared to the rest of the favourites.
You have to take that account, as I'm sure the other favorites are.
If you choose to ignore that, you choose to ignore a factor that might decide this years Giro.
1.30 isn't dogshit if this Giro is tight.
So it doesnt matter? we can just ignore it?You took 'lack of TT' way too literally. It's embarassing. Everyone else knew perfectly what Big Doopie meant.
i really think you are missing the point.Niceare you ok?
