Re: Re:
Thibaut was clearly one of the two best climbers this year, his time-trialing is solid, and his team seemed to have stepped up. Only question would be if he keeps targeting July or he goes for the Giro again, but he has truly established himself as a contender in any stage race he goes to. He just needs a bit of luck.
This is cycling. If you didn't win its because you didn't want to win badly enough. If you used to win and know you don't its just because you lost that determination.Alexandre B. said:Look at his palmares, all the races he won and tell me to my face that he lacks mental strength.macbindle said:Did you read the bit where I said I'm not talking about his injury? Good. So let's put that to bed.
For the rest, it's a matter of conjecture. All race, I've seen a guy who is not tough enough to win, despite the clawing back of time he lost earlier. You have seen something else, fair enough. In my opinion, he lacks mental strength. I'll bet you a race up the Burway that I'm right.
