Morini, firstly by saying Lewis starts slow, and I think you know this is what I was saying, Lewis rarely starts at peak Lewis over the first 4 or 5 races. He's very rarely at his best, that's not to say he's slow, Lewis being 5% or whatever below peak Lewis is still quicker than most operating at their peak. Plus it's not a question of motivation. You take something like the TDF and cycling in general, cyclists aim to 'peak' when it is important and stay in touch before their peak, and try to maintain the peak as long as they can. I think Lewis has been doing the same thing.
