Well, I got the winner right.

Adam Yates, and possibly Thinault Pinot for a podium.


Adam Yates and Dan Martin have been disappointing. Thinault could have
got 3rd, maybe 2nd if he hadnt pulled out.


Sagan will struggle Sam Bennett (if he is in the team) will dominate
the sprints.


Got that one totally wrong. Sagan looks back to his old self, if he
only had a better team around him he'd be winning more.


Sagan winning the Points for 7 years, it's a pity he had no lead outs.

Quintana for a stage win again, but only top ten overall.


Looked great on one stage, but he didnt threaten anyone at all overall.
He looks to be struggling to get anywhere near his form of 5 years ago.

How many can Egan Bernal go onto win now?
Alaphilipe has been great, it's a pity he has fallen to 5th, he worked
hard for 18 stages, then just couldnt keep it up for the last 2 mountain
stages. He'll be marked in future, so unless he improves his climbing
considerably, he wont get a chance for the overall again.

The best tour for 15 years?
