Stage 18 El Puerto de Santa María > Jerez de la Frontera 32.1 km

It is good for the pure testers . Roglic has to make big gains ..

 

[T4tomo]

yes he's kicking the arses of the 2nd level sprinters - will be interesting when it cmes to next year whether he gets a crack a the TdF or whether Koijjijjjii (*sp) still gets that gig. Visma continue to go all in for Jonas and don't take a sprinter.

*I forgot Koojijijoiji had buggered off to decathlon this year!!

What's the wind like?

No, he'll get disqualified for dangerous riding if he has to take both hands off his bars to celebrate a 6th victory.
