Well, Vingegaard hanged on for the GC and Kooij sneaked past Merlier at the death for the stage, so chapeau Visma, mission accomplished. Ineos must be glad that young Sheffield held on for 5th on GC - some good news for them.

well, Sheffield didn't come down again at least, but 5th must be pretty disappointing, given that the race was decided in a time trial, and Vingegaard didn't show much shape at all.

Both Kelderman as well as Onley would probably have beaten him without their crashes, but well... it's no coincidence that exactly those two were affected, of course.

But still a success for Magnus. Nobody could know how he‘d return from his ravine fall he survived and Mäder next to him didn’t.

Magnus is good and seems to have gotten good treatment and support. Important and basic for all future success.
