I'm not so sure. Roglic seemed to have quite some in the tank today. I hope they both go full gas in the ITT.Oh and given that he was likely significantly the heaviest rider in the main group today, he is the number 1 favorite for the ITT on Saturday if he is allowed to go 100%.
I guess we can say Hulk Hogan in fake wrestling was extremely talented. Similar concept. The point is WVA is doing stuff he has never shown before, and unlike other support riders (e.g. Michał Kwiatkowski at Sky / Ineos) hasn't dropped away in the last kilometers of big climbs in the high mountains.Also extremely talented
