  That's a very risky move. That is assuming that UAE or Alpecin won't be able to react in time to shut down his attack. If UAE can shut him down, he would have wasted energy that he dearly needs to cover for Tadej's attack on the climb later. He may blow up later.

  The only way Ganna or Wout could win MSR is if MVDP is strong enough to keep Pogi's wheel. Then the hesitation could let him attack and not being followed somewhere around the end of Poggio or in the last 3km. But if this time Pogi succeedes to drop Matthieu, the race is over.

  "Jorgenson should have stayed with [Van Aert]. The gaps that Wout van Aert had to close, Jorgenson should have closed for him" this statement tells all about the bias of Cauwer

  Even if he empty himself on the flat, the Uae would be going furiously fast to keep him close, and then Pogi will do Cipressa like 25 seconds faster. No way anyone let Ganna gain a minute on the Peleton.

  With Pogi, its the eaiset prediction. UAE will make the race hard, Pogi will attack. MVDP will follow and win in the sprint. Let hope Ganna or Wout is not stupid enough to chase for MVDP instead of following MVDP

  It will be the same three + Del toro.

  Good luck with that, Ganna. Cipressa won't work for you, but if Pog and MVDP crash out early and you have two teammates who can spring a surprise attack with you in an unexpected location, maybe.

  Agreed on all points. MVDP is the defending champ. Everyone is his rival not the other way around.

  Like I mentioned in another article similar to this one, only 2 other riders from the top 25 GC riders (according to PCS) were at the start line on Sunday: Carlos Rodriguez and Kevin Vauquelin. The term "stunned by dominance" has meaning only when there's actual competition, which wasn't the case here.

  De Cauwer is super anti Jonas anyway. Given everything that Horner gets, I'm surprised this chap doesn't get worse- he deserves it. He "Ring Trine's door on that weekend and she'll say he can't go out all week" - Any Tom, Dick or Harry like Mou can say that but a 'respected' analyst can't. It's not proper.
