Then I'd let Sepp Kuss ride for GC, but without the team support that Vingegaard would have received (but without the team counterattacks like in the Vuelta).
This makes sense to me. And it avoids a rerun of the buildup-then-letdown that was recently perfected by a rider Vingo likes to compare himself to, one Chris Froome.
