  • Except a lot of performances were all over in the Giro, Doumoulin proving the only other consistent GC rider over three weeks. Hindsight is a great thing, and with it Yates burning matches day by day and riders like Pinot and Pozzo trying to follow and doing the same paved the way for a softly softly catchy monkey approach by Froome.

    And Sky executed it well, Froome took his chance and Doumoulin was isolated and dithered.

    Yep. Dumoulin even knew the day before exactly when and where they would, and still couldn’t do a thing about it

  • Doumoulin needed a lieutenant, no-one from Sunweb so he had to lean on Pinot and Reichenbach, since Lopez and Caparaz where fighting each other. He admitted his mistake too: had he pushed on Solo he might have limited losses, stayed in pink.
