For Roglic, such stages are always a challenge, can the froom’s feat?

Last Free Day on Garo brought a lot of guess around Primož Rogličwho eventually announced that he would continue with the race. Now the question is what the Slovenian ace can still show in this year’s race. “I have a hard time believing that it can repeat Chris Froom’s feat from 2018, when he reached a pink T -shirt in the last week. He simply had too much resin, ”says Cyclingnews Columnist Philippa York.

The Dutch commentator and former competitor, now sports director Thijs Zonnevelt: “Now we have received the answer that on this Gir Roglič simply is not in such good shape. The last ascent of Sunday stages was not so demanding, they drove at 30 km/h, in the majority you have the advantage of a v and the velocity, but it still fell off. He has never shown his explosive attacks once, and the long mountain stages have always been a challenge for him, he was never very good. He prefers short, explosive climbs. « 

What is true and what is not, it will be known today, when the stage is very demanding for all participants, Canadian agrees Derek geewho holds the fifth place in the overall standings: “So far, it has been more about who will spend 14 days with fewer blows. We have not tested our feet yet, but today there will be no hiding rooms, it will decide power, we will get the right answers. « 

There are four categorized climbs in front of cyclists, including a marathon target to San Valentina.
