Why is polti pulling the ayuso/roglic group??
They have their GC guy in the group, Piganzoli (only 17th but that’s relatively important for a small team like this). I thought they had their sprinter too, but I am not sure.
Yeah but you still have to leave it to bora/uae to do the chase. Wasting energy that could be used later
Used when?
Dunno. Breakaway in later stages… get your TV time later in the race, not pulling 2 teams with more to lose and motivation to pull… Either way, seems like a waste of energy for no gain
Maybe i play too much pro cycling manager trying to conserve the green energy bar
