Very underrated IMO. Would like to see him go for another GC at Giro or Vuelta.Billie said:First on in the Dauphiné.
Stage wins:
Paris-Nice 2x
Catalunya 2x
Suisse
Dauphiné
Giro (Stelvio)
Tour (Mont Ventoux-Chalet Renard)
Plus many KoM jerseys and ofcourse a final podium in il Giro.
Great rider

Am I missing something here? No ITT or TTT win at the Vuelta. He has won a couple of stages in the Volta (a Catalunya) though.
Oh, if it's Nibali then he's won the 2013 TTT with Astana as well!bambino said:Tank Engine said:roundabout said:Maybe he would prefer to ride over the line first, but he has won a stage in the Vuelta.

Are we still talking about Nibali here? In official papers he did win stage 20 in Vuelta 2010 when Mosquera was wiped out from the results.
