The race is beautifully poised going into the time-trial. Evenepoel, Roglic, Vingegaard and Ayuso are very close together and should all put in strong time trials. Kuss, Soler Martinez will probably drop a couple of minutes to join them.
The team strength of jumbo is crazy though. I think unless Jonas has worse legs than is apparent and sepp really flunks the TT it's their race to lose. It's just not sustainable for remco to pace up longer climbs, he'll get crushed by rolling attacks, and the others don't look to have the form of JV's leaders.
