sure, with some gymnastic we can make Wva look better, but I prefer to look at last man VS man, since the conditions were same for both, it kind of reminds me when Pog beat Rogla in Slovenian TT, nobody believed in him in tour despite that.

At least while Rafa is still playing
Still Rafa would need 5 sets to beat Wout Almighty.
Not only was it a completely different type of TT, clearly more suited for GC-riders, but the conditions were everything but the same.
Oh no, poor WVA lost time cause of bad conditions, come on man
He lost a hell lot of time on the flat, so until he proves othervise I can not see him gaining time. but it doesnt really mater what we think we will soon find out.
it’s kind of remarkable that he gets to use his great sprint weapon as often as he does. He’s pretty far removed from the typical range of pro cyclist physiologies. Everyone else as diminutive and light as he is tends to be an excellent climber but he’s bad at that too. I suspect he trains like a demon and has great capacity to suffer.
Okay, I totally agree. The guy hasn't proven anything on the flat in his career yet.Oh no, poor WVA lost time cause of bad conditions, come on man

For Milano-Sanremo:
1.Sagan
2.Ewan
Is that the ranking of the gruppetto?
Bryan Coquard is lighter than Ewan, but he's still a very bad climber.

So far in any race where Alaphilippe, van der Poel and van Aert all started, one of those 3 won. This might change someday this week

That’s a good point. Quite similar riders in a number of ways except that Ewan has a world class sprint and Coquard doesn’t quite.

He isn't when it comes to actual mountains. Maybe he underpeformed a bit during the Tour last year, but he only finished it because Debusschere sacrificed himself on the Col de la Loze stage.

Carlton Kirby still with hyperbole stuff...his head was not close to touching whatever...it was not that big of a stretch.
