- Agree. Del Toro is going to need a team this week to chase down attacks, if they make him do it alone I will no longer respect UAE. The difference between Kuss and Del Toro is a stark one. No one can attack Del Toro in his own team because he will drop them, that wasn't the case with Sepp. I hope this kid, if he has the ability to win in week three, that he wins it emphatically, rubbing it in Ayuso's face.awp27-05-2025
- Get those kneepads, boy, cause someone is going to do a tight cornering downhill.
KerisVroom27-05-2025 - Can the Vuelta pull the Q36.5 card out now without Pidcock? Seems like they should since he refuses to commit and you gotta start thinking Ineos didn't lose anything when they let him go.frieders326-05-2025
- UAE cannot do a Vuelta/Visma otherwise they won't win, like Visma did cept UAE won't come out on top... they dearly need to stop playing up Ayuso, Del Toro is clearly a natural and should be supported!
leedorney26-05-2025 - Not sure which is worse, that or the punch that lost him the TdF? But really the guy should have 2 GTs more to his name.Mistermaumau26-05-2025

- Well, he could at least try to win a stage somewhere this year. Whatever his reasons, his team won’t be getting wildcards so quick in future so better make sure he racks up more points to compensate.Mistermaumau26-05-2025
- His reason doesn't make sense. He can just take a break after Giro before a build up to Vuelta. There are a number of months before Vuelta begins and there should be enough time to have a few weeks of rest. If the priority is to be a GT rider, this is another good opportunity to expose himself. Unless, of course, he doesn't like the idea of fighting for GC, then it all makes sense that he wants to avoid riding another GT in a year.KerisVroom26-05-2025
