Yeah I saw his starav and it was incredible but I've never seen anything to compare it against. Jack Haig has HR for all the stages and it was still low but he is still pretty fresh in GT races.
Maybe Dumoulin was just to under prepared he hadn't really raced much and maybe focusing so much on the TT last year was not helpful. Yates said it was his goal to win and like people said three weeks is a long time and he was an unknown. It's not like Froome didn't know what was instore or was some unknown racer that just came with of no where to win.
