Summary
JB Hager, Johan Bruyneel, and Spencer Martin from the Beyond the Peloton Newsletter break down the six-day Itzulia Basque Country (Tour of the Basque Country), starting with the reasons, and implications of the high-speed crash on Stage 4 that injured three of the four top contenders for the much-anticipated Tour de France, before getting into how Juan Ayuso and his UAE went to win the overall by leveraging their incredible team-wide strength on today’s final Stage 6. Before they go, Johan discusses who he thinks will win tomorrow’s Paris-Roubaix and gives a first-hand account of the current condition of the infamous cobblestones.
