Could Greipel potentially struggle with the time limit today?
Doubt it. When a break eventually goes away, the peloton will slow down a lot.

Everyone needs a stage to suit them, so flat stages are necessary.
Besides, crashes are hardly the ASO's fault.

They won't and don't need it.
They will loose yellow today ( hopefully ) and a lot of pressure will be relieved.
With Siutsou they had a team that could do that, workhorse. Without him, they don't.

I'm not saying we should get rid of flat stages. Flat stages should be much shorter, more exciting and bigger chance for breakaway to succeed. |

Shorter stages = longer transfers.

No. Flat stages are good as they are. If anything, they should be longer.

Mollema in the breakaway. Bauke for the stage win!
At least I hope so, for my Velogames team's sake.

Sky had a nice 6-8 men breakaway in front of them no GC treats in it reeled it in. Now they've got like 30 riders in front of them |
