He's not going to win in the Ardennes at his current weight.
In the same way that he came along and out-EBH'ed EBH, plenty of riders like Matthews, Degenkolb and Kristoff have come along and do exactly what he does: ie can climb and mix it in bunch sprints.
Except they're all tactically more canny.
He'll have to find another way to win.
