I think Sofiane usually goes pretty all out from the beginning and while he is incredibly fast he does get tired and the pace drops towards the end. So it's not like Strasser who might keep more reserves for speeding up at the end.
Some of that section seems to be the same as it was in 2021, it's relatively fast until Naryn as they get to a lower elevation, but there are some punchy short climbs here and there. And there's a huge climb from the coast to where James is.
Justinas and Sofianes pace were ridiculous, and reckon they have the experience to keep it up
Interesting to see Skinny drop behind at CP1 but already catching up places
With such a strong lineup yearning for more Josh Ibbett like coverage or podcasts of the tussles
