yeah i remember you saying about yates, spot on there, the riders form this year has been all over the place with covid restrictions meaning some have done more training that others, i don’t think G has pulled out yet but there’s little incentive for him to persist with it considering i doubt he’ll be able to fight for stage wins, i’d say it’s definitely between nibali and fuglsng but both have stinker days in them so it’s so excitingly wide open, hence why it’s always been my favourite grand tourYeah, gutted for G. Was out this morning and tuned in with 30km to go just as he was being dropped. He rode through a broken pelvis at the TdF some years back but he was a mere domestique then. Has he pulled out?
I was concerned about Yates' form, hadn't seen him ride much since the restart. He's not completely out of it yet though, the two TTs should see him claw a couple of minutes back but it's hard to see him winning from here. This is wide open now.
