Have you heard of the vuelta sjaak5?? I think i remember him beating gesink if my memory doesnt fail me So that cant be argued or gesink should be a 78 or less
yes i know gesink is overrated, he should have like 78/79. but it was a nice 4th place overall for mosquera, but the vuelta is different than the tdf. in vuelta, only some guys peak, including mosquera. guys like sastre and valverde rode vuelta, but where better in the tdf. and dont forget that the distance between mosquera and contador was quite big. for example, vandevelde has 79 mountain and he rode top-5 in tdf. so i think you have to give mosquera max 79 mountain.
where is Di Luca? he should have 80. with 79 he isnt good enough to hang on in the giro when sastre/menchov goes. IRL he does very good in mountains! so at least 80 maybe 81 would be right for him..
