Absolutely, it is both ridiculous to declare the race over after yesterday, but equally Jonas is strong favourite.
If he can keep that form through today then he will win, probably with a bigger gap. But that is a sizable 'if'.
How about now? ☺️
Now it is over, barring force majeur.
But this stage proved exactly why it was ridiculous to declare it over yesterday. 1:40 was not a remotely unbreachable gap.
A short time trial (controlled environment) is very different from a big mountain stage though. I’m rooting for both, or any of the other amazing cyclists tbh, so any outcome is great!
