Hopefully Vlasov takes it. Met him at last years Cyclassics, such a classy guy who really deserves his success

All fine riders, but sorry C14, I had to give my vote to Hirschi.

I feel sorry for everyone facing João Almeida in this poll.  
But for real, despite Vlasov and Hirschi's consistency throughout the year, the biggest jaw-dropping came from Jai Hindley, imo. Can't really say who is the clear winner here, all of them worthy and hopefully all can follow through their great 2020 season. |

I guess Almeida and Hindley were bigger surprises, but Hirschi was so fun to watch

Hindley was crazy but Hirschi surprised us with his backdated transfer move when the yesr was already over. Plus, what a breakthrough season. Next year, Liege.

Gotta be Hindley for me. All these guys broke out this year, perhaps earlier than expected, but I didn't even know Hindley's name before this year, and now he has a GT podium.

Hindley and Almeida were the biggest surprises in terms of performance.
