Don’t think that Quintana was in the height of his powers in that Giro, had he been fresher, he would have been able to put on a bit more hurt on Dumoulin.

Froome and Lopez to work together to launch sneak attack ala Quintana and Contador in Vuelta 2016

Quintana's powers are being light and previously uncrackable. He has no pacy injection when climbing, or doesn't when he's been neutralised for hours on end by a stronger team. I'm not a big fan of contador, but he had (drug assisted probably) change of pace.

Maybe so, but on the super steep stuff, being 58kg and able to float up day in day out and set punishing pace has served him well (when on top form)

Egan Bernal looks to being an improved Quintana, 60kg, great TT and more agressive style. Looking forward to seeing him in GTs!
