Poels which exploded everyone in moutain and the other 2 not tired at all who walks and Poels that ends right behind Pinot.. LOL
And Dumoulin.. better than Carapaz, Pinot, Aru in high mountains .. ok ^^

Poels didn't do much work till now, this is what his job is for Froome.


This is why cyclists can't win all 3 Grand Tours (Giro, Tour and Vulta), and most can't be good in 2 Grand Tours.

And why can't Dumoulin be better as Carapaz, Pinot, Aru?? He trains for this whole season, he is just as skinny as those other guys. Dumoulin has more power in his body as those little guys, you can see the difference with time trails.

Hope you will be this critical when 2 French dudes are 1 and 2 in the Tour, which is impossible.

or Froome needs a miracle ;)


Yeh, Froome and his miracles ;)

I'm not a fan to Pinot.. ( rather Nibali, Sagan, Alaphilippe)
if terminated 2 and 3 it's because the others, Froome Contador etc, give up the tour..

Poels was forced to slow down otherwise he was letting everyone down.. if after he stop ok, but no.. finish after Pinot.
Dumoulin are more power yes, but the high moutain is not good for him..look Rod Dennis.. The new Rasmussen ;)
Yates world champion on track and win in moutain.. stop ( and i like her brother Adam ^^ )
Froome is horrible during this Giro, and today, with big stage, he flies away :D

French are not better.. Jalabert, Fignon etc are doping, and your country is well known for cheating by doping .. not so patriotic ;)

Everyone was using doping at some time. I'm pretty sure Dumoulin does everything by the rules. Has nothing to do with patriotic.
