@elswick. Nope. Unproven at the distance, needs a decent lead out, and he really can’t climb. I’d be surprised if Kittel’s still around after the Cipressa, and he surely won’t be after the Poggio.
Saying that, it’s a kinder route for pure sprinters than when the peloton somehow allowed Cavendish to win in 2009... but nah, it’s still not happening.
