This was the worst tdf in a long time because it is the sketchiest winner ever. A guy with no history of bwing competitive in grand toura suddenly wins one at 32? That doesnt happen in cycling. Landisesque but worse.
Those are the kind of winners you get when the top 2 current GC riders have Giro legs, 2 of the top challengers crash out, and the strongest rival team brings a 3-pronged attack instead of backing the guy who looked like best climber in the world last year. If you've watched cycling over the last 5 years, you shouldn't have been surprised that G was in contention. Of course nobody expected him to be the strongest over 21 days, but he didn't come out of nowhere.
