Roglic presumably in shambles?.
I suppose, but it seems a bit weird to me that they go for Remco when Lipowitz is arguably as big a GT talent...
I've seen a few people saying this and I'm not sure what it's based on. Remco has won the Vuelta as well as equalling Lipowitz's best performance at the Tour de France, has been World Champion in both the road race and twice in the time trial, won both at the Olympics last year and has multiple classic and monument wins to his name. Lipowitz is only a few months younger and hasn't won anything of note, and he is unlikely to have anywhere near the same level of success given he does not have a clear point of difference to his competitors, compared to Remco who is the best time trialist in the world.
Will be interesting to see how next year's tours play out, I assume if Roglic is still in the mix that they will be supporting each other. Obviously Roglic probably only has a year or two left in the tank
