Looking forward to an exciting battle in the Pyrenees. Pogi is going to punch hard. If Jonas can keep riding the way he has been, he should be able to hold on, but any weakness, and things could flip in a hurry. Jumbo's losing two of their strong climbers may be problematic, but UAE hasn't really shown a lot of team strength on the climbs. Expect to see Jumbo lean even more on WVA and Kuss. The strongest team is probably Ineos, but it looks like they are missing a rider who can truly compete with Pogi and Jonas. Pogi is stronger in the TT, but probably not so much so that her can make up his current deficit.
