Briton Adam Yates won the Tour de Suisse General Classification today.
Guess you mean “Briton”. The Limey also take KOM and points. I haven’t followed it this year, but it sure looks like a weak competition.
In what sense?
The riders are top notch - Bernal, who came fourth, has won the Tour de France outright and others have had stage wins.
Some of the tour stages looked a bit too “easy” but I always assumed that to attract top riders, the tour stages couldn’t be too tough as these riders would then not be able to race in the Tour de France too and given the choice, they’d always go for the TdF.
I understood they had to modify one of the mountain stages because of snow.
Yes, the Nufenenpass was still closed because of snow so that stage was shortened from 151Km to 42.5Km.
It’s still closed now.
