I'm just about to watch this, very excited to see it play out. I'm listening to the very start of the race right now and it's very funny how things work out: "[The smartest racer will win, not just the strongest.

I also think it's interesting how much she dislikes riding in the peloton. She's 10ft off the back in the starting roll-out.
