bernal will likely finish the job tho since he's used to the altitude and the back seems to be behaving.
He now has enough of a cushion that he doesn't have to do anything aggressive to win. None of the remaining GC contenders seems likely to unleash a game-changing ITT at the end. Ineos will ride defensively and all Bernal has to do is to make sure that nobody really gets away from him in the mountains.
it's his unless bad fortune shows up.
