It’s interesting, for a lot of teams today’s stage is about protecting their GC ambitions, very few of the top teams will be focused on winning the stage. If Quick-Step don’t win I’d be surprised.
I think that’s because this stage will be very hard to win due to mechanicals/flats/other shit you can’t predict and really easy to loose lots of time in GC if you’re not careful. Sort of high risk low reward situation.
That’s exactly what they were saying after yesterday’s stage. They will ride for Majka.
