I still wouldn't count Chaves out who's been riding a tad stronger in the mountains and could potentially top him especially if Kruisjwick has a bad day.
Also not willing to count out Nibali yet, especially as he has the strongest team and most experience as well as being the best descender.
And I still believe that Zakarin could possibly do it even though he's pretty far down on time and hasn't been riding quite to the level of Kruijswick and Chaves, but then again he had a mechanical on stage 14 rather than actually not being able to keep up. So we'll see.

Polish fans going full norwegian mode on this which is weird because to me Majka doesnt seem to be in top shape. |

If he's smart then all he has to do is follow wheels from here on in, both him and Chaves are yet to have a bad day which the majority of GC guys do have in a GT so it will be interesting to see if and when that happens, if it happens on the wrong stage they could lose minutes. He's in the prime position to bag himself a GT if he races smart

Nibali said it himself. Only a bad day is going to beat Kruijswijk. He will try everything to force that bad day ofcourse tho... so Kruijswijk better save his bad stage for the last flat one |

Week 3 thread up now. With a total of 141 pages of discussion already, we're well on the way to beating the previous Daily Giro record
