Team USA isn't riding into Sunday's road race with one card to play. McNulty's fourth in the time trial backs up his third at GP Montréal on the same circuit — he's not a support rider, he's a threat in his own right alongside Quinn Simmons.
Jorgenson finished 19th at GP Montréal, well behind both McNulty and Simmons, yet analysis puts him on the same level as his compatriots at his best. That gap between recent form and rated potential is exactly what a national-team race can erase. Add depth pieces like Neilson Powless, Sean Quinn, Kevin Vermaerke and Artem Shmidt, and Team USA doesn't need to pick a leader — it can play numbers on the Mount Royal circuit and let the race decide who's sharpest.
