Cavagna will be an interesting one, he's been starting to focus on other things besides ITT, will be a sneaky top ten in GC? Props for Bernal! I went a little JV heavy as well. I snubbed Matteo for Jai. I wonder how Haig will do after suffering in the Giro?

I snubbed Jai for Bernal ...

The early podium collapsed and it seems some of the mighty got caught in the scaffolding.

Well done Marcel, scoring some other points on top of the 60 breakaway points for the ironically named warriors to top our little league. Top ~11% overall. Slightly edging out some real riff-raff.

We're on to Suisse.

Was a good race with Jai and O'Connor showing their cards? What happened to the south Americans? I hope they're being cagey! Yates looked very good.
