Extraordinary. What the hell happened yesterday that he could come back from like that?
Bad legs, then when he saw he would drop out of contention intentionally lost more time and ride easy to be allowed up the road for stages
"His tank was empty". This is understandable, I've seen tonnes of leaders blow up towards the end of a grand tour. But none of them immediately bounced back to dominating the very next day.
This wasn't him missing the last few % or whatever, he got dropped from a 50+ peloton on the first climb, he had nothing yesterday. Can you remember any comeback ride remotely comparable?
It will be interesting to see what JV will do. They can’t expect Kuss to play the supporting role while he’s that much ahead, no?
I think that Evenepoel will go for a breakaway if he has the legs today. He’s so much behind now…
Beforehand, I picked today for Wout Poels in the vuelta game I do, no real reason other than he likes tough stages and I want a Dutch win.
I agree that Remco will go stage hunting eventually. But today? I'd assume whatever hampered him yesterday will do so today, as well. Maybe take it slow for a day, recover, lose a bit more time to have a solid breakaway ticket in stages to come?
