Yeah, been thinking this, hadn't appreciated their consistency until I say your comment. They seem to have developed a very fluid approach, with 3 or even four riders capable of going for the win, then adapting to the conditions and strengths of the riders. Everyone thought Kwia was the protected rider, yet he was used as a foil like Bentancur to tenderise the remaining peloton. Presumably that was just a decision taken on the fly, rather than a rigid race plan. Lucky lady who picked up Poel's discarded gloves, better than bidon as a souvenir.

I think Sky deserved that, their tactics this spring have been much improved and they've used their strength in depth aggressively rather than defensively. I think they've the best record of any team in the monuments this spring, 2nd, 5th, 3rd and 1st.
