Hello everyone and welcome to another video here on the second D gaming channel and today we are looking at tacha and the Jalia and of course this all came about because TB gacha has announced that he will try and do the Jiro tour double and I thought why not
Try and see what the simulation of pro acting stats would say he can do at the the Jalia of course he’s a big favorite now he’s the big well the biggest star who’s announced his intention for the Jalia so I thought we might just give it
A go anyways we’ll come to the game now the team that we’re going to pick obviously it’ll reflect what we’ve actually seen announced from the team itself Mig obviously very strong engine Felix grat as well Rafa M Molano they picked as well Ru Oliva kind of an
Insurance policy if you will T of gacha obviously and theas well Dom Novak as well and Jay Vine that was the team that we saw no Mari for whatever reason we have the old J so we’ll just have to go with that but yeah first stage let’s see
What happens Nelson Olivera not all Olivera takes the win here and tacha is in the fight nth less eighth place and yeah onto the stage two into South Salvo uh we need tacha to be our leader Milano goes for the Sprint ol up koyi wins it so Milano 26 kind of yeah
Thinking why did why did we even bring him but uh yeah he has a good ratio of getting one ground Tour stage win but yeah third in the team classification eight in well the general classification with ttam Gater early days but inside the top 10 is no mean feat to say the
Least uh just tling up there as well like he might actually take a stage one in 2024 m can we take a stage win here waiting waiting waiting and we do first stage win that’s good to see winning in front of Alex buo and that
Means we are we leading I think we might be leading yeah we are leading by 30 seconds down to W vanart obviously W vanart did a video on that as well but um yeah W van not uh in second place judging on the stage you would say that
That kind of fit it’s a t whatever not anyway ooh this looks interesting we could be on for a second stage win here so we’ve got one stage win already tacha is our leader yeah second stage win I mean this is pretty much what people are expecting
To happen that he’s just going to run rings around the Jalia field but uh yeah leaving now by 1 minute and 14 seconds now we’re only at stage po uh yeah this might actually happen if if we’re honest but yeah we move on and stage five I don’t think it’s going
To be a win here for us Milano is our green jersey Contender or Sprinter whatever Jordy um yeah Jordi M remember he won the Shamy stage he wins another stage here yeah but I mean doesn’t really matter two stage wins already we’re leading 1 minute and 14 seconds that’s a
Lot like 1 minute and 14 and you’re not even into the big mountains yeah Napoli to Napoli this is where we saw m pills take the Victory and what can we do here M pills wa to again so I mean history repeats itself or the game is 100% on point Tom Sange
Up there uh but yeah no one really cares about team classification we’re leading that anyway who have we got contenders wise Wilco kelderman H that could be the guy that they send to airo uh you never know former Podium finisher but stage seven looks quite hard another win three stage wins he’s
Already doing his gr tour batting average here for the most part apart from last year and uh yeah leading Now by how many minutes 1 minute 42 seconds down to Wal pools I I didn’t think wal pools was going to be the one that we were going looking to to beat but 3
Minutes and 11 seconds in the white jersey obviously he’s not uh he can’t do that in 2024 but uh this is the 2023 Edition uh P bow takes a win so we didn’t get the stage win there three wins so far is pretty good tatcha losing
A bit of time here so not great losing a bit of time M K off there for whatever reason getting let off the leash ironment here but yeah we didn’t lose any time to the main tenders Richard kopas in here Lou mes just seeing who who is kind of we’re expecting to see
Deeper into the race stage eight I mean we’re quite deep into the race already and uh yeah time trial coming up 34 km I’d expect we take a bit more time oh we win it okay four four wins four wi so far m p in second and taking a lot more
Time out of our our yeah our Rivals so uh yeah that’s what you would expect to see I guess yeah three minutes three minutes we’re leading by the three minutes oh my goodness this is an absolute walkover and might actually take the Mantis Jersey we might see that
Triple Jersey win like we’ve seen before in the past flat stage here don’t think we’re going to win here Sam Wellsburg beat the other Sam Sam Bennett and yeah Tater 22nd not losing any time which is the most important part obviously at man Jersey Nelson ala uh and not take not leading that
Classification but taking a few points in it uh we are not leading the points classification so it’s not going to be a four Jersey win we’re second in the mountains still have the white jersey obviously but that is a bit of a technicality with where we are um yeah stage
11 flat stage malano are you going to do anything for us no Olaf Koy wins the stage so and what we not in a third play so yumbo having an okay uh race you would say not not well I can’t recall them taking any victories but uh title G
57th and in terms of the green jersey nothing really um shout H about Milano is just a waste of a place really should have got a yeah Vegas gang or somethingone like that and inste in it but um yeah or marishi stage 11 and and uh they’re
Saying it’s going to be a bit of a flat stage so Milano ah we take another one five stage wins Mig be out in fourth place yeah five stage wins that’s pretty impressive here remember when we did Berard one that was a complete freak Show as well in terms of what what
Bernard was doing winning two two jerseys and I think eight nine stages but uh yeah but we’re we leaving a lot here is this going to be stage six stage six yeah stage six so stage six here at the even s remember him kuso is in the race as well picking
Up points uh in the points Jersey Master Jersey as well picking up some points leading yeah this is going to be 4 minutes and 46 seconds my goodness this is a huge buffer points we move up into third tabach has got the man jersey and the The Young Riders classification Now
By quite a margin now so yeah six stage wins already this is crazy Yi mut Yi M winning again here and yeah I mean it was a flat stage that ciz that cast one climb not really a big difficulty when it’s so far and uh yeah 4 minutes and 46
Seconds crazy really crazy we we wait and see what happens uh well I say deeper we’re on stage 14 so almost as deep as you can get here into burgo now we know tyacha is the king of burgo in terms of e lombardia so uh is this going
To be stage seven no Derek G wins the stage oh finally getting that stage win Mig ba in second place so I think we had a breakway up the road oh M we could have taken stage one there but uh Derek G doing what he couldn’t do in 20
23 but we lead the general classification obviously still by quite a lot with tyacha so I think yeah with six stage wins he’s almost content here this is going to be an interesting one stage 16 are we’re going to take another one no Tom SC wins but you can see that
Titler gacha wins the Sprint of the second or the second group with the juc Riders does he extend his lead 7 minutes and 41 seconds oh this is getting big now I mean we need to figure out what the the biggest margins are in terms of durti history but here we go stage
17 H Milano I don’t have much pay sorry Milano yeah Alano wins it ah malano oldani wins it malano oh malano Molano uh let’s just get that right no take a St right he could have gotten in himself in that break maybe would you let a Sprint in a
Break like that probably not Rafa mik is crawling into the top 10 as well so that’s getting a bit more exciting we lead the mass J by 11 points um yeah okay this is an interesting well this Soo and we take the win so I think that’s seven or eight wins
Now uh yeah absolute walk over I think it’s seven it’s seven am I just forgetting the counting here 8 minutes and 20 seconds uh I think we got Rafa mik to move into top 10 masterer Jersey obviously extending the lead there and tyan irman is yeah quite far
Behind oh this is getting interesting are we’re going to get our eighth Victory here no bill ba wins ahead of talino who obviously we know is not going to be riding 2024 maybe he just came back last minute maybe that’s what happened after he had such a good result in
In El the J last year that he was to come back but in terms of the general cation lose a bit of time here 7 minutes and 52 seconds ah maybe it extended a bit but yeah still a comfortable margin down to Bild B I think bil B could be on
For uh GC If he if he stays at all mon lazari R doing what he did and here the slans can win T Bacha behind b b and Landa no way that would happen in real life let’s just be honest but yeah um bbow taking a few seconds back M Pon
Winning the the purple jersey and yeah the final stage in Rome are we going to get Victory from Milano no KY takes the victory here and Milano in 41st Place what was the point of bringing Milano here unless he was doing work on the front that obviously
We don’t see simulation but um yeah all of coy famous Victory there but there you have it Rafa mik craws into the top 10 as well we win it by quite a margin 7 minutes and 41 seconds the point classication didn’t win that KY took it
Away from pillon so pison didn’t win it in the end and then we won the master Jersey we won the white jersey as well despite him not being eligible for that and yeah that’s basically it what an interesting little simulation about uh type of C it and I mean many of you
Think it will go like that a couple of jerseys and a whole host of points in in all the competition and winning six plus plus stage wins eight stage wins is that going to happen in real life who knows depends on who turns up but yeah that’s basically it for this

With his skill set, why not
In next year's Giro route, I can see Pogi winning stage 2 (Oropa MTF), 8 (Prati di Tivo MTF), 15 (Livigno stage), and 20 (Monte Grappa 2x).
Pogi will dominate in all likelihood. The real challenge would have been to win the Giro with Wout van Aert. It is not Wout's own objective, but it would be a real challenge to see if what was speculated could become a reality.
