Have no idea if there are already stats or knowledge out there about this, but I wonder if sprinters are more prone to injury a la track (running) sprinters due to the type of specialism, and so have shorter runs of success? Similarly are track cyclists who specialise in shorter events more prone to injuries?

Interesting piece at INRG about Alaphillipe winning the Tour. The answer has to be if Thomas can, then he certainly can although he will need a different approach and imo a different team. No way Lefevre will rock up at the Tour and go all in for the overall. Talking of Quickstep, any rumours of who they will replace Viviani with? With Gaviria gone they are looking sprinter-lite. Ewan and Groenewegen are looking the hottest property in sprinting right now, and Quickstep usually go for the top boy.
And what happened to Gaviria? He looked like the next big thing but he seems to have regressed.
