"His tank was empty". This is understandable, I've seen tonnes of leaders blow up towards the end of a grand tour. But none of them immediately bounced back to dominating the very next day.

This wasn't him missing the last few % or whatever, he got dropped from a 50+ peloton on the first climb, he had nothing yesterday. Can you remember any comeback ride remotely comparable?
