Lonely at the top. Easy win for Pogacar. Rodriquez loves the hard third week. That’s where Roglic and especially Evenepoel will crack. I still believe Jonas will be podium.

Lets see what the level of Jonas is. I think he will be fine. If not, its free for all! Wout to sprint and break to lots of podium places.

Stage 1. Incredible opener. Hilly stage, too hard for strong sprinters, too easy for GC men. Especially with the last 15 km of flat. Opens the door for a ‘surprise’ first yellow jersey (Bettiol, Gee, Healy, Powless?). Or will it be Wout vs Mathieu part I?

Today: Part I - Course review.
Stage 1 - reduced GC sprint (Pog)
UAE will thin out the peloton on Colle Madallena to launch Pog on San Vito.
Stage 2 - Oropapa - GC day (Pog)
Santuario de Oropa. The perfect day for Pog to set the GC in stone and let the sprinter teams do their job the rest of the week.

#TDF2023 Preview alert (II) - the teams
Here it is. My (im)famous team analysis with some fantasy team tips!
Jumbo-Visma
GC: Vingegaard
Sprint: van Aert
Break: None
Jonas for GC and Wout for multiple stages. Jonas the no. 1 favourite with this mountainous tour. Wout with lots of chances. He will compete the mass sprints as well in my belief.
In this thread I'll take a look at the Giro course. Later this week I'll post my teams preview + fantasy team tips and classifications. Short and simple, in my own style. First some general observations:
- Giro for sprinters. If you can climb this Giro offers you 10+ chances. Looking at you Mads, Bling, Albanese.
- Add up the 3 time trials and the GC days and there's not much room for break away artists.
- However, stage 4 offers a beautiful chance to take Giro glory and pink.
