I thought we can only say that for certain after Giro stage 20 and then I realized there's an ITT in the last stage.

It's quite easy when your own top level is 50+ minute climbs and Balas is more like 3-15 minutes.I think he'll race at top level longer than Valverde.
Have a good day
With the form Thomas is showing I am very worried about his chances at Giro ( I haven't watched the stages today and yesterday because they were not broadcasted but Thomas looked very good so far, right? )
Please, Nibali, we need you to prevent the Thomas win...

Slongo says it's fine, need 8 days to digest altitude camp (lowering heartbeat to normal).
Training as usual.
Edit: But he talks about preparation for the Giro, so it's obvious they didn't even think about Worlds.

Told you it's time for Slongo. The Worlds are mentioned only when they're asked. There was always the Giro as main target.

Yes, Thomas looks on his way to become his old self circa 2019, not his older self before 2018. Yates looks also good, but to quote Nibali last year "I’m interested in seeing how Yates performs because he said we all need to ‘go to the toilet." It's shaping up to be quite a competition.

I was an inch away from pushing the panic button yesterday but I'm back trusting the Shark today.
Looked cool, kept his watts in check, even tried an attack. Yates might be unbeatable if he's in 2018 form, but Nibali will fight for the podium.

Missed most of the stage, checked the race thread here, read about Nibali attack, then nothing, saw the finish and had to leave again. Nibs didn't arrive yet. All good I'm told.

A Nibali 19th place is the much needed relief after a Contador 5th place.

Still remember how in 2017 he blew up on Blockhaus and all Nibali fans were like, sure, everything going to plan, didn't even lose a minute to Quintana

Actually he didn't do anything, there were 59 riders who finished in front in an eventful finale. I am prepared for another disappointment in tomorrow's TT.

I'll set the over/under at 39,5.
If he finishes worse than that in the ITT I'll be after all of my panic buttons tomorrow.
