@Eliza Could you resolve please? https://www.letour.fr/en/rankings/stage-1

Wout will go to Tour of Norway and possibly TDF. This article also says Jonas to the TDF is still uncertain.

He would go to the TDF for stage hunting purposes and not to ride as a grind-to-the-death domestique, so he can be ready for the Olympics.

@Eliza that doesn't sound good for Jonas' prospects...

Giro will be skipped, too. https://twitter.com/vismaleaseabike/status/1778414031969095857

@Lion He can do it next year.

@Eliza he can do it 2027.

@egroj I put a nibble of Yes on Dauphine and Suisse -- those two plus the Giro currently add up to 91% which feels a little bit high, but it seems like he would possibly want to race SOMETHING before the Olympics.

@Eliza looks bad for Giro, perhaps TdF

@egroj PCS has him out of Giro:

One of the rare cases I wish there had been a market open for the race for live betting -- to see what the odds looked like on him over the last 90 minutes or whatever. What do we think, would it have been 90% the whole time? More?

Sadly there's no straightforward way to reorder all these into season order. I did put the WT ones in order but we'll just have to live with the new additions at the bottom 😂 The only other option would be to put like 001, 002, 003, at the start of each to do alphabetical sorting but that seems silly too.

@egroj SAD TO HEAR THAT. 😭

@Eliza he said he has to focus on Roubaix, what I don't understand is how Giron fits in with that

@egroj Giro*

@egroj @Eliza For real or is that just some Wout-won't-start-the-Giro-doubting, because you guys can't predict the Italian spirit?

@Lion the opposite, I think that the plan is still to do Giro. What he recently said is that he will be focusing on Flanders and Roubaix: https://velo.outsideonline.com/road/road-racing/wout-van-aert-rolls-dice-in-all-or-nothing-cobblestone-quest-i-want-to-get-out-of-my-comfort-zone/
I think that the Giro distracts him from those goals

@egroj Let's be real, he won't win Flanders anyways. If he wasn't from there, he wouldn't even consider this race. But MSR really fits him.

This is really hard to predict without Roglic in the team and Laporte stepping up.
