I don't think so, on stage 2 and 11 are the only moments he did push with similar rage. Everything else on this edition is far far far behind that level.

Was very surprising to see that Evenepoel didn't have grinta and legs to go away from Vingegaard in the endgame. Where's that sprint leadout-world champion-multiple Liege punch now?
Greatest climbing performance ever is not impressive to you?

On Remco, there was no point in sprinting for one or two seconds advantage

Numbers wise, yes. Last week he proved that. But recuperation, no. The lack of training and his crash affected that part of the equation, IMHO.
Yeah, you're probably right, actually. Vingo was flying for the 1st two weeks. Same as Pog last year. It seems that lack of sufficient preparation limited them both in respective years.
Fingers crossed that next year we see them both healthy all season so there will be a duel to the end.
