  • Dumoulin remains unproven in a mountainous final week. He's clearly the favourite now, but he still has a tough week of five consecutive mountain stages to face and, history shows, that the type of rider he is can struggle with that.

    Just look at Alex Zulle in 1998 as an example.

    he lasted until the penultimate day in the Vuelta 2015 without planning to go for a GC top 3, I'd say he's proven himself but got caught just short of winning the thing. He's prepared now.
