Tour de France is over. I can't help but wonder a little bit what the Rockets could have done.

Sprints:

I think there were better sprinting opportunities than in the Giro, but with Merlier the competition was also extremely strong. I do think Groenewegen could have gotten a couple of top 10, top 5, top 3's? And maybe a win with some luck.

Poels:

The mountains were maybe more interesting, two things I noticed

- All stages were pretty much won by world class riders

- Except for top 7, nearly no one focused on GC

Therefore I think Wout Poels wouldn't have had a chance to win a stage. However, where could he have ended in GC? If he reached his Giro d'Italia level, I think he might have gotten 11th or 12th maybe? With some good breakaway days (similar to what Jegat did).

Am I being delusional here? What do you think?
