Yes, I think the thing that sets him apart is that not only is he a strong rider, and surrounded by a stong team, but he is also a great strategist and can really react to the flow of the race. Ullrich is a very strong rider, has a good team, but fails in the strategy department. If Ullrich or {insert name here} had the same quartebacking skills, thay might be much more threatening and the Race would be much closer.
