Like Nibali's or Contador thread i inaugurate the Pinot's thread:D The best french climber since Laurent Fignon:cool: The future and the present. The youngest rider win the Giro Valle D'Aosta. Great Dauphiné Liberé and Settimana Lombarda last year, he began the season with bad feelings but "piano piano" he recovered and did a good race in the Tour of Suisse. Then he arrived at the Tour de France due to the leave of Jeanneson and amazed the world in the Porrentruy stage. He beat riders like Bauke Mollema, Steven Kruivswijk and Robert Kiserlovski in a numerous breakaway and passed Kessiakof like a airplane in a impressive final climb. Ataccked in Grand Colombiere, La Toussuire and in the final ascent of Peyresourde. Lastly he finished in the final GC Top10 with only 22 years ¿Precedents? ¿Where are his limits? ¿Will be a podium contender in the next TDF?

Magnificent talent. If he improves his time trialing he will win many, many stage races in his career.
