Apologies if this was asked already, but on stages like today and yesterday is every rider using disc’s? Feels like a given with the improvement in braking in the wet.

Aren't Ineos still on rim brakes? They were in the Giro even on the stages when it was chucking it down.

They worked out it gives them a competitive advantage in wet conditions. Other teams will notice the rim brakes and think twice about playing too aggressively near them.
