Just thinking that routing, finding places to eat and sleep, fixing his own mechanicals etc. would be a new world for him in a race like this and it might be an equaliser for others.

He's a pro, so he has more time than some people when it comes to route planning. So, really, I'd expect him to have a better route than many given most of us have full time jobs doing other shit. As for mechanicals well, just because he races with a team car doesn't mean the training he does is without incident. Obvs he won't have my mad skills but I presume he could fix most normal stuff. Guess we'll find out.

He's strong but this is still new territory. Time will tell if the front runners have gone out too hard and/or he is riding well within himself and can claw back time.
