It was exciting watching him go for it.
The post-race interviews were more than the usual enlightening. MvdP talking about how he knew Campenaerts had a 58 tooth large ring, so he knew he had to measure efforts, and not chase downhill attacks. Pidcock clearly unaware, sort of laughed/shrugged when told. "Well, there you go." Tiny details.
Dang, Ineos owned at marginals gainz. Makes sense. I thought it was slightly odd when MdVP kind of sat up after initially chasing VC's attack. I had thought it was the DS telling him not to signal he was going to chase every attack....but might have been his own call to wait until it flattened to organize a chase.
Maybe MdVP is smarter than we often give him credit for.
