Re: Vuelta 2018 Stage 12:Mondoñedo - Faro de Estaca de Bare

Lots of people are saying the technical finish will suit Nibali but I disagree. I don't think he will want to take any risks less than a month away from the biggest goal of his season just like he didn't take any risks on the final descent in stage 20 of the 2016 Tour de France only a month away from the Olympics.

Nibali safe is still relatively fast, but yeah he'll only win if he gets away uphill.

And I don't think he will get away. His face still looks like he is not exactly enjoying going uphill.
