He has not been well health wise. 

Seems there's a bug and/or covid ripping through the peloton? 

Morkov didn't start today, Cav said because of covid. Izaguire, Renard and Declerq got off yesterday while Wright OTL'd. Bilbao abandoned today, and the rest of Bahrain looks terrible. Jakobsen has looked terrible all tour and abandoned today. Pidcock allegedly tested positive for covid too.

Any news from the ground?

I'm really hoping the GC battle is won by a real contender and not whoever manages to stay healthy for 3 weeks.

You’re all in on Roglic cracking hey? 😂

The man has been dropped on pretty much every climb when things heat up, and has managed to limit his losses by coming back on descents. If the climb carries on for 30 min rather than 12, I think he's gonna ship time. I hope not though. My heart wants Roglic to win, but my head says Jonas has this locked down.

Pog marginal gains by getting COVID 2 weeks before the tour to have his antibodies at their highest

I was going to suggest that he goes back to ski jumping, but he crashed out of that sport.
He needs to find a sport that doesn't involve hitting the ground at such regular intervals...

I actually hope he wins a stage this tour, phuck man. I feel for the guy... had the tour snatched from him on the last day... and apart from winning other tours just constantly finds himself on the ground

So free climbing isn’t it then….?

Primoz's best support will be to add 2x training wheels to his bike....  Perhaps not aero, but will save him minutes....
