Seems to me that Patrick Lefevere should and or will be pretty pissed at Remco. So Remco dropped out of the GC without a serious effort to save his placement (which to be fair might not have worked any way). Yes, Remco got two stage wins and a ton of screen time, but it was all just about Remco and nothing about the team. Remco lost two stages getting dropped on smaller climbs and getting beat by riders several talent rungs below him. Not a good look.
