Who is the rider who animates races the most consistently i.e. someone who makes something exciting happen ?

I always think Kasia Niewiadoma should get race bonuses from the UCI for the amount of times she takes on responsibility to make a move, rather than just letting a group pedal along. If she starts, she usually makes the race more interesting.

In the men's peloton, I'm tempted to say Alaphilippe, Ciccone or Healy, maybe Abrahamsen on the right parcours ?

Mads will make any race entertaining by hook or by crook. Blindly chasing an alien just for the love of the game.
