There multiple races he is able to do that and is given that opportunity. He could be focusing on Giro for example. Don’t think he is pissed at all.

Yep..more than enough races to go around.. Landa looks to be in good form building to the TDF..think a solid GC result is on the cards for him.

You think so?

 

I reckon Landa is going to lose big time in the tail end of week 2.

 

Top 5 maybe.......  I have no reason for this, I just have a feeling he is going to capitulate and then spend week 3 playing catch up.

Top 10 IMO achievable hell maybe even top 5 if he has no bad luck and maybe even some good fortune, he also takes with him a good team to support him.

 

I donno what you all think good GC is..but I see a top 10 as a good GC result.

Sorry, I meant top 10 but then some reason typed 5..... My mind is obviously wandering while watching the cricket.

Landa not going to do his trademark ‘ship 5 min in the first week and then fight valiantly to make up the difference and get achingly close with a confused look’?

 

 

Whats different for him this time is the Numero Uno.

Hopefully no Movistar tacticians have moved across and it was a clean break

Meanwhile, Lulu Sanchez claims his first national jersey.

Mathieu solos for 44 kms to claim the Dutch jersey. Incredible feat against what is always a deep field in Nederland.

DeMare earns the French title and Nizzolo for Italy, a rare highlight for Team NTT.

And I like this American mountain goat - servant, humble and grounded.

Just read that he has a background in mountain biking.

What a prospect.

Max having a very quick turn around on the broken collarbone. It's not a hard working entity in the body, so they'll just rely on the screws and plates to keep it in tact I presume.

 

Good reason for some TUE as well...

Fair enough that is a hell of a workload especially with only 2 real sprinters days in this years tour.

Yep.... but he had committed to the Giro well before the Virus hit..and the Giro went all out with the marketing with him participating..they normally also pay a nice appearance fee as well ... this means he isn't doing the cobbled classics as they overlap with the Giro.[emoji17]

 

As we are well aware you don't need to win the sprints to collect Green Jersey points..just be there or there abouts and collect points along the way...but they'll be working hard for Buchmann and GC.
