Unbelievable finish from Tobias Halland Johannessen, to have been so close yesterday and to ride that tactically perfectly today, chapeau.

His first WT win after untold second places. I'm made up for him.

I mean look at this... SIX WT second places this year, including three GT stages

But it may mean he turns into a serial winner now. Sometimes the talent is there, but the rider just needs to learn how to use the available watts a little better and then they become truly great, once they've figured it out.

He certainly looks like he might have the legs to do more.
He was actually racing to help Cort (last race day) today, but he was in the front group and Cort wasn't, so he had to try and remember what they'd briefed Cort for the final

Have you seen or read anything specific as to what the riders concerns are?
The only thing I have read is a post suggesting that the penultimate descent may be a bit more technical than the rest.
Anyhow, if they are going to race the other laps, but not the final lap, it’s a head scratcher.

So you don't understand cycle racing.

Well final stage, lots of waiting around and very busy at the Alhambra, difficult conditions for getting photo's but hears a few of the better ones.

Well you have to start with first and second, couldn't see Gall.

Hayter.

Skejelmose on the chase.

Some of the back markers.

Wout in Green.

And a few more back markers.

I enjoyed that!

She says that there are lots of police gathering there already. They have assault rifles, gas masks, etc. Hopefully, this is just a standard precaution and they they don't have warning of some potential outrage!

Apparently it was a PR exercise. They were showing kids the kit, posing with families for selfies, and so on...
