I really don’t understand how Yates, Ayuso and Almeida outperform Haller, Denz and van Poppel.
If RB/Bora were going to be strong on any day, I thought it would be today.
I screamed when Vlasov crashed, was convinced I saw the Slovenian bands on his arms as he went down.

Rider for rider UAE are a considerably stronger team than Bora, so that Rog didn't lose any time on a stage where he was dropped/distanced a few times is probably mission accomplished for that team.

Yeah, but we’re not talking about the high mountains here. I thought the discrepancy would be less on this type of terrain.

And yes, I’m happy Rog didn’t lose time. But the stress must have been draining, I was stressed on his behalf…
