Mild reaction. There's a reason why he's called Superman

Yeah, if Roglic doesn't get some major bad luck or something, 3rd place should really not be a problem  

 

If Roglic actually has a really good day and Nibali doesn't, 2nd place is not even entirely impossible.

 

Edit: I just notice now it's only 17km, yeah forget the potential 2nd place unless Nibali has some terrible luck

its the last day,so they are too tired to do more.roglič got more then minute in first time trial against landa in 8km, but he cant catch nibali,cause he is too good.

too bad for rogla that he was ill and he was the only favourite without helpers almost in all stages

Yeah I think the past months will turn out to be a valuable lesson for him for next year: don't try and be in top shape for all those small tours in the run-up to a Grand Tour, dominating in February or March or something isn't gonna help.

Campenaerts is my last pick too.

It must be today Thomas De Gendt is going away in a breakaway. I think it' s going to be a 17km solo breakaway.
