Lipo vs Remco- that battle is definitely not over, lol. When is Lipo's contract up?

Why would he quit? Too much projecting by Wiggins. Jonas was very straightforward- it wasn't his day. Still- a group of fantastic climbers still couldn't catch him. This Tour is far from over.

I was going to say the same thing. I'm also surprised how he didn't follow it up with a book promotion or at least link Vingegaard's struggles to how he (Wiggins) has had a terrible life and everyone's been nasty to him. I hope Ben Wiggins hasn't inherited that.

Who are you replying to, yourself? Or just admitting you didn’t realise half your statements were opinion?

I think Tadej turns boring stages into GC firework. Compare this to Chris Froome era where nothing happens until big mountain stages, we get to see firework even on punchy stages. I doubt a more conservative generation of GC riders will turn stage 6 into firework. They don't attack from that far on GT and the last climb won't make a big gap on GC.

Good Point! Maybe A.S.O. should make the stages different..only putting the High Montains (queen stages) in last week or so? They did change Green Jersey points this year because of POGI almost winning last year, so they are making adjustements.... Its a Tough Topic this one... It was cool they made some kind of a pool to know the fans opinio. Are we divided in this?

If I may gently remind you, Javier Ares is Spanish. Spanish only care for GC
