Vuelta a Espana 2023 (spoilers)

What a ride by Remco. Not sure about him winning an overall grand tour GC yet, but you never know, he's young and has time to improve.

I can’t see Sepp moving if he really is happy to NOT be a team leader. I reckon Rog will (understandably) find this week’s events hard to reconcile.

Rogla for me is the only one who'd consider leaving.What is he 33/34 he's already won the Giro and Vuelta was it 3 times ?
I'd say he's only ever going to get joint leadership for the Tour , to be honest can anyone see Vingo standing aside for him in the Tour ? There could be a temptation from another team with a promise of guaranteed leadership...
All speculation and bollox from me 😁

Er, didn't he actually win the Vuelta last year...?

I do apologise, in my defence, I forgot that I didn't watch the Vuelta last year due to being away on holiday for most of Sept, so I'm remembering Roglic winning for the last years.

Ok Yea I know the Tours not over yet but some interesting news here if true.
Jumbo-Visma will go to #LaVuelta23 with both Primoz Roglic and Jonas Vingegaard. They want to win all three Grand Tours in the same year.

No shame in it but you forgot to mention Sepp,in post #1, Adam 😅

Didn't want to ruin his odds ....I wish !
Right sprint stage I'm going to have a snooze 😁

As futile doomed breaks go, this is a tour de force of doomed futility.

Four relatively anonymous guys tootling along a minute off the front.

Ganna time ?

Bert pipped Pippo...

All finished thankfully after that crash.

Bert pipped Pippo...

When Groves went down thought he might nick it !
“Second time in a sprint is not a bad thing considering you speciality is time trial”

Ganna - “Yeah it’s like ask Groves to do a TT"
🤣

 

[Cathryn]

Ganna time ?

Ganna time is my favourite time

Pah...hear it all the time from my other half...scruffy long haired lout !

So will they all stay at JV? I reckon someone will leave after these shenanigans.

Kuss under contract until end of next season, Roglič the season after, Vingegaard end 2027. I reckon Kuss will stay and whether Roglič does will depend if he has and exit or buyout clauses.

Was just looking at my Vuelta Fantasy team and picking my winner for today and was a little shocked at the NTT data predictors pick for today,

I would love to know what data they use to come up with their predictions.
