Big mountain top finishes that should say. It has climbing stages and other mountain finishes that should see gaps but Stage 14 and 15 are the big ones I see.

They wanted stage 15 to go to 2850m, but after protests from ecologists it tops out at "only" 2500m. Lol.

I don't think my vuelta squad on velogames is anywhere near as strong as my tour team was. Couldn't work out a happy balance of good points scorers and solid support riders.

Oh and Jai Hindley flying nicely under the radar I see, perhaps not enough big mountains but hard to believe the Giro winner won't be gunning for a podium spot... Interesting to see from when Geoghagan-Hart won the Giro and Hindley missed narrowly out, since then it's Hindley who has pushed on and Tao has stagnated/gone backwards.

Seems like such a level or surprise he won that there was no thought to the future from him or the team on how to grow

Is that Chrisull trying to sneakily persuade us all to fit Hindley into our teams when he has some inside info that says he'll be a DNS on stage 2? ;-)

(He's in my team already, as it happens).

And my team too (but as I've not played this before and picked riders at random it doesn't bear any significance).
