Too true INEOS do look very thin when it comes to climbing domestics. Very good but not great leaders in Rosriguez Arensman, Only, Bernal and Vauquelin. but who supports them on the climbs? Deplus does anot seem back anywhere near 100% and after him nothing.

The more the merrier but I’ll wait to see if it really happens. There’s the question of support.

Like I said, the numbers are smalltalk and hearsay, nothing scientific, nothing that can be thoroughly scrutinised. They are probably “leaked” for psychological and strategic effect more than anything else.

If MVDP can win Stade Bianche with it's super steep final climb, he might be able to handle this final punch too. But I'd prefer to see someone else take this one - why not Roglic?

Already Jonas has shown his now inability to climb for 3 weeks strong. At the TDF last year the only reason he stayed near Pogi was because Pogi was sick the last week. Yet he still couldn't catch him. I betting he finishes off the podium if everyone shows up in good to great form

Oh.... a jab at someone in the forum :) Yeah, I'll be surprised if it was indeed 10% more power. He is at the prime of his youth and there shouldn't be any dramatic jump in performance unless his coach and training massively screwed up previously.

You have to distinguish between climbing ability and potential vs consistency over 3 weeks. Can Seixas out perform Jonas for that long?

The road will tell. Fast finishes have never been his forte. In the past if he arrives at the finish with Pogi, then Pogi wins the stage. That has been true all along with maybe only one notable exception
