168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Geraint Thomas was aiming to go 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:'full gas' to win the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Tour de Suisse but the bad weather, 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:which saw a shortened stage 9, ended any aspirations of victory and even the top ten as the Team Sky rider rolled over the line over 11 minutes down on Jarlison Pantano (IAM Cycling) 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:to slip to 17th overall.
"Geraint had a really bad day. He was super cold on the top of that mountain an💮d when he knew he couldn't follow the guys and he didn't have anything to fight for he just got to the finish in his own time," sports director Gabr꧅iel Rasch said.
Thomas was sitting third overall at the start of stage six but dropped to eighth overall following 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:the stage to Amden. Ninth in the decisive Davos time trial, Thomas remained in eight with a deficit of 1:30 minutes to race leader 🎃Miguel Lopez (Astana) and 1:14 minutes off the podium. A repeat of his 2015 Tour de Suisse podium was still within reach, but with the shortened stage and the 30-year-old suffering in the cold, 91st saw Thomas saw him drop out of the top-ten.
"All of the guys did well this week and tried really hard for G. That was the plan and evꦬeryone gave up their own ambitions to do that. G was just lacking that final 10% to be up there," added Rasch.
Thomas' aspirations for the final sta🔯ge had already taken a hit with climbing dome♚stique Leopold König a non-starter due to illness having placed 16th in the time trial.
"Leo has been better day-by-day. This morning he had a sore throat and he and the doctor decided he wouldn't start to try and stay healthy, butཧ he will be better and better for every race he does now," said Rasch who added young American Ian Boswell further demonstrated his capabilities off the back of his debut Giro d'Italia.
"He was probab꧑ly a little t꧋ired after that, but he did a good job here, had some really strong days, and showed how talented he is once again," he said of the 25-year-old.
