Who will be the next home winner of a Grand Tour?

[Ilmaestro99]

Landa aswell, and he's actually a third-week-riser

He is also a second week crasher. I'm no going to get my hopes up until he cross the stage 20 finish

Why not stage 15 if he is a second week crasher?

Well, he might crash in week two but only abandon later.

True, but there is the Quick-Step effect, where every rider somehow turns in their best possible incarnation.

Yes, like Knox, Masnada, Lampaert, and basically everyone else except Evenepoel, the past few years.

It's notable that all the most likely candidate mentioned in early 2021 are still the biggest possibilities

Mas
Ajuso
Landa
and
Tiberi

My OP is tough to read with my high thoughts of Alaphilippe but at least the many times Ganna was brought up later in the thread make me look a bit better...

 

[RedheadDane]

Alaphilippe is indeed a possibility.

Nino

Is Mexico's flag similar enough to Italy's for del Toro to be accepted?

Pellizzari will do it on Sunday so we won‘t have to ask ourselves these questions
