In a new uphill struggle, it was Joao Almeida who showed weakness, while Primoz Roglic showed a better version and initiative that allowed him to surpass the Portuguese in the general table. However, the one who remains the most solid among the favorites is Geraint Thomas, who has not shown any signs of weakness so far.
It is worth clarifying that this list with the distances between the leaders of the row also includes some luxury gregarious and second swords, those who, due to a failure of their boss, would have a chance of finishing in the top 10 overall and, therefore, deserve a mention. ***
This is how the favorites were after stage 18:
Geraint Thomas 🇬🇧 (INEOS Grenadiers)
Primoz Roglic 🇸🇮 (Jumbo-Visma) at 29′′
Joao Almeida 🇵🇹 (UAE Team Emirates) a 39″
Eddie Dunbar 🇮🇪 (Team Jayco AlUla) a 3’39”
Damiano Caruso 🇮🇹 (Bahrain-Victorious) a 3’51”
Lennard Kämna 🇩🇪 (BORA-hansgrohe) a 4’27”
Thibaut Pinot 🇫🇷 (Group-FDJ) at 4’4
Andreas Leknessund 🇳🇴 (Team DSM) a 4’47″
Thymen Arensman 🇳🇱 (INEOS Grenadiers) a 4’53”
Einer Rubio 🇨🇴 (Movistar Team) at 7’03”
*** As the riders give up time in the general classification and rule out fighting for the top positions, they will be eliminated from the list.
