It's in the World Tour thread :p

Ah yeah, there's different threads for World Tour (which unlike World Cups in many sports is not a classification people actually seem to care about) and other races :lol:  Oops

Considering that pretty close to all interesting races are in the World Tour nowadays (and some pretty damn uninteresting) I disagree ;)

I am surely not cycling expert,least to say,so i need an explanation.

How is possible that Roglic can finish 1st two times,than 2nd and 3rd out of 6 stages? He has 31 sec advantage over Valverde. Such dominance is strange for me,because all other great cyclist werent capable of finishing top 3 almost every stage,at least i think.

I am not implying anything but he transitioned from being good time trial cyclist to cyclist that wins or finish in top 3 in majority of races he participates in. :dunno:

Can you also spot a big truck and a big tree?

Stage 1 (1st): team time trial, so he finished 1st there

Stage 3: rather tough uphill finish, which he has been good at since he entered cycling (and it only got better all the time)

Stage 4: same thing really

Stage 6 (1st): again, long uphill finish 

 

It's not really strange for someone in a multi-stage tour to be strong in most of the mountain stages and this tour just happened to have quite a lot of mountain stages :p (+ definitely not everyone is in top shape yet)
