First week and a half has a lot of punchy, classics-like stages. Pogacar will have opportunities to pick up bonus seconds on Vinegaard. Evenpol could do well there too, but his form seems really variable even from day to day. Nutrition? Vinegaard will have to stay close into the high mountains, and hope that longer climbs at altitude are his advantage . . . but Pogacar was dominant in Dauphine stages 7-8 which were basically TdF mountain stages.
