3 heavy-weight riders shall start: Pogatchar (🇸🇮 UAE), Vingegaard (🇩🇰 Visma) and Evenepoel (🇧🇪 Soudal-QS).

There will be a few outsiders as well, like Lipowitz (🇩🇪 Bora), Mas (🇪🇸 Movistar) or L. Martinez (🇫🇷 Bahrein).

This will be the last professional race of Romain Bardet (🇫🇷 Picnic). On the other side of the age spectrum, Seixas (🇫🇷 Decathlon) will start his first major race.

During the first half of the race, sprinters and punchers will battle for stages: Milan (🇮🇹 Lidl-Trek), Healy (🇮🇪 EF)...

Poole has apparently fallen during the time trial. Does this mean that Bardet will be forced to play GC now, as he is now 45 seconds ahead of the following Picnic riders?

Next day, during the first mountain stage, Poole apparently abandoned and all other Picnic riders including Bardet finished 13 minutes and more behind... So, it will be all for breakaways in the last two stages. Or nothing at all.
