/cunego survives the rabottini crash corner without issue.

3 minutes for Cunego on the final climb, think he can take stage + pink possibly.

Atleast Basso is attacked in a descent. As much as i support him, i wanted to see him being attacked on the descent.

Why are they letting Cunego have time? He is a good enough rider that he can stay away.

right now they are giving him what? a 1 minute lead? he hasn't show the form to make that gap giro winning material since 2004

This isn't the 2004 route. He can gain all the minutes he wants in a breakaway like the did that time, but this time the next few stages are actually hard enough to make him lose all of it and more.

Not to mention this time he doesn't have a ludicrously strong team to pace him back to the favorites when he gets dropped like he did that time.

Do you mean the break or peloton because he has been caught by the first group.

and the screen to peleton time seems to be changing randomly. We'll see at the 15km to go time check.

Edit - unless they don't show it, which they didn't...
