weird tactics in the last few ks.
WvA works all day in break for some reason, pushes break further and further so he cannot be a satellite rider at the end. Gets dropped on final climb and clearly isn't going to win, but keeps riding and doesn't even try drop back to help vingo who is isolated (maybe it was too big of a gap, but he helped make that gap!)
Yates rides away from Pogi instead of helping keep pace / taking some amount of wind. Doesn't really make sense even if you are thinking about his GC status as he is far too far from Pog/Vingo to be an actual threat and 3rd + 2nd do not = 1st. Ends up getting passed by them anyways.
Vingo looks stronger than Pog in the final two K's but doesn't even try an attack over Rodriguez even when it looks like he has some distance from Pog. This one can be explained by him being on the limit / not wanting to give Pog a free ride, but with GC so close it doesn't make sense to not at least try.
