Not even the joy of seeing GC Kuss become a reality can make me not detest Jumbo-Visma

Yeah they're just so massively overpowered, and without Evenpoel it's just basically rock paper scissors on who wins the stage. I do love the GC Kuss mania but I was hoping he would get a good challenge.

Yes, bet he will phone home to his wife as usual and complain about kuss, vingo is out for blood. my fear is that kuss is to nice to get the GC, he will have to burn bridges here with his team chasing down vingo over the next days, this is his only gc chance to be honest
TJV are just handing out the spoils. Today was the day Jonas gets a stage win and secures a place on the podium.

Who knows what the allocation will be tomorrow :D

What why? There are such great teams that overcame so much to come out on top. Jumbo just can buy anyone they like. You can maybe throw UAE in and say why won't they bring Pogi... but yeah that's it. If 8 or 9 of the top climbers ion the world are on two teams it will be boring very often,
Would be a great narrative if Jumbo bought the obvious next big things like Ineos did with Bernal. But buying a guy from AdriaMobil, Rally Cycling and ColoQuick with no rich backgrounds in the junior ranks is hardly shopping for the best climbers.

Not going to happen, Jonas want the double, will be fun to see what Kuss does
Agreed. I don't see how the team is going to tell Jonas to soft pedal it as a domo when he's finding his legs like this, not gonna happen. Sepp will win if he can hang onto his lead mano a mano with Jonas, and if he can't, he doesn't win.
