And yes, it is predictable. Thomas and Bernal two and three, with a non-GC threat in the lead. A couple high mountain stages coming and the GC is over for everyone else. This is precisely how any honest fan would have predicted it.
The GC is fairly well inarguably the least interesting most over-hyped contest in grand tour racing. Pay attention to the stage wins.
