  • I'm glad Dumoulin won, he was clearly the best rider in the race, although he seemed to be running out of steam a bit this last week. All the talk beforehand about this being a climbers' race was just that, the mountain stages were tough, but the two time trials swung the balance in the favour of Dumoulin.

  • I would argue TD is a pretty all-round rider. The 'real' climbers didn't put nearly enough time into him in the plentiful mountain stages. And he took Oropa like a boss.

  • I wouldn't dispute that for a second, he was easily the best time-triallist in the race, and one of the best climbers.
