It didn't seem like the stage was ridden that hard. The 150km before Picon Blanco were essentially downhill or flat, and even the final climb had everyone bunched together for most of it.

Given Carapaz was fined for an illegal feed, I think it caught him by surprise too.
I have to say, it is very easy to criticise someone's feeding strategy from the comfort of an armchair.

Exactly. Skip some meals, reach to the last hill, no gas in the tank, too late.
Or too much celebrating, who knows.

Do people never ride bikes? It's too easy not to eat enough. I struggle to eat when riding at a decent pace, only remember about it when a big effort is coming and by then it may be too late.
