  1. Last year, watching Mayo, I grudgingly acknowledged his legs but
    thought him a bit of a punk.

    This year I was looking forward to him challenging the other GC
    contenders and providing some excitement in the mountains. I was
    right, though, he is a punk without sufficient maturity to get it
    done.

    Maybe next year, Iban?

    You were right? So your opinion this year agrees with your opinion last
    year?

  4. I think that Mayo is too young. He needs a few more years at the tour
    before he is ready to be and effective team leader and GC contender.
