I don't love the framing that the gap only closed because Garcia was hurt and missing. Skovbjerg just calmly beat whoever was in front of him. Watch how he rides chasing that 74-point gap over the last three rounds before you judge this one. Riders who win quietly like this usually turn out strongest in the back half of a season.
