Somebody said that Sagan was going to freelance, actually that's what he will do for sure, and the teams gonna have to take him with them because the WC and a classics race are totally different.

IMO it will happens something similar than what happened in Richmond, the last climb will decide the race. Totally see TD dropping everybody uphill and doing the last 10km solo, actually he looks so well that I doubt a bunch of riders together arent going to be enough to catch him at all.
I don't recall any last Dutchman wearing the rainbow stripes in the past 20 years, if not 30. May have to go all the way back to Jan Raas
