don't forget Quintana has road rash all over. He must not have felt well today.
Nor did many of the other contenders. Scarponi looked like a stiff old grandpa at the finish (he's old, but not that kind off old). Majka hurt all over, Kelderman was covered in scrapes. Uran had a cut on his knee. I mean, tomorrow could have a very weird outcome as a result
Probably easier to find a list of riders who aren't battered, bruised or scraped sadly. Guys like Arredondo are also out there racing with some knocks as well.

Just how stupid am I playing Fabio Aru?
Not too much, he's definitely one of the second-tier riders that could go early on the climb and benefit from disorganisation in the favourites group.
If Scarponi turns out to be too injured, he could as well become team leader and do it the standard way, noone but Quintana is significantly stronger than he could theoretically be by now from my estimations.

Hard to say if the breakaway will be allow to get the Stage win with Finetto in there but if guys like Arredondo or Pirazzi get ride of him thats defenitly going to be 4 the Breakaway.

I'm not the nit-picking guy, but if you start it, I'd say that it's stage 8 today, and by my definition a week has 7 days. Even ignoring the rest day, this is very much week 2 now.
