Following this sport for years also playin PCM, and didnt know this. Thanks ahah

So the yellow headthing is because they are the the first on team gc and not because of Pogacar GC, didnt know that (again), is that a common thing or has always been like this?
Per Wiki
“ Between 1952 and 1990, the team classification leaders could be recognized by yellow caps, until helmets became mandatory.[5][6] Since 2006 the best team has worn black on yellow back numbers.[3][6] Beginning in 2012 the best team was awarded the right, but not the obligation, to wear yellow helmets.[7][8]”

So is this Ayuso Almeida podium fantasy settled now? It’s not going to happen. They will finish behind at least 4-5 other riders even if pogi collapsed

Podium probably not gonna happen, but top 5 not completely out of reach depending on stage 9 etc?

Yates was never bothered, he's saving his best level for La Vuelta apparently, as far as I know none of the bigger riders are going (maybe Rog might though), it will be a great battle.
In the past, Yates has always struggled to perform in the GT's in the same year.

is he performing in this GT? if he embraces the dom role (including pulling the plug after he pulls off, and taking entire days off), the vuelta can be his one good gt for 24
