Nutrition at Team EF

Despite a NY Times subscription, I can't do a 'gift link' of this article from the 'Athletic' but hopefully you'll be able to read it anyway. It's a fascinating, in depth article on diet and nutrition as practiced by Team EF, in particular Ben Healy; and the day they highlight is Stage 6, when he won from the breakaway. It's really remarkable how dialed-in this is, and if you listen to interviews with older (like mid 30s!) cyclists, they say it's quite different from how things were even ten years ago.
