5'31'' would be 10% delay
8'17'' would be 15% delay
Edit: but I somehow suspect that time cut is greater than 15%

Yes although he was pushing for time in the last couple hundred meters, I guess he only lost about a second though.He doesn't win that often, it is possible he wanted to enjoy it and forgot about the GC. That could become costly.
And that's not even counting AyusoUAE...
Del Toro, Almeida, Yates!
If Vingegaard doesn't get ready for the Tour, and Roglic crashes as per usual, it seems quite conceivable UAE can take all 3 podium spots.
I'd like to be a fly on the wall at the team meeting, where they decide who out of Yates, Ayuso and Almeida is to be the domestique - so the other two can podium with Pogacar
Do we watch Vuelta 2023 scenario in this case?If Vingegaard doesn't get ready for the Tour, and Roglic crashes as per usual, it seems quite conceivable UAE can take all 3 podium spots.

I can't imagine a cannibal like TikTok Merckx gifting gc leads to team mates/not attacking them.Do we watch Vuelta 2023 scenario in this case?
Noooooooooo... I thought the dynamics got really weird between Rogla, Vingo, and Kuss. Think Rogla ended up the odd man out if I remember correctly? Wouldn't want to see a repeat of that.Do we watch Vuelta 2023 scenario in this case?
Yeah, but I think that in UAE there is a clear no. 1 so I would be very surprised if something similar would happen.Noooooooooo... I thought the dynamics got really weird between Rogla, Vingo, and Kuss. Think Rogla ended up the odd man out if I remember correctly?

Touché.Yeah, but I think that in UAE there is a clear no. 1 so I would be very surprised if something similar would happen.
If you put it that way he’s not quite as bad—because I tend to do that as wellI am more interested in the rocket program in Blitzingen he was talking about.
Also I think Kirby just likes doing stuff with words, and a coherent sentence is somewhat less important.
Maybe he got motion-sickness on the trainyeah, he was brought back by some team mates. No idea if he had a mechanical before, but he didn't look comfortable.
