Re:

Good to see the ladies getting some TV time.

Yeah it's perfect when you pair them together with the men race, so they can race before and have tv coverage as well.
Most northern race already do that obviously.

the danish girl Ludwig is the women's Chaves. She looks like 15

Re:

Now that you mention it, she has a facial resemblance to Savoldelli

 

[Climbing]

Rain Rain Rain Rain Rain!

 

[Robert5091]

Ooh - damp conditions!

Going from the ladies race, it's best to leave it as late as posible.

im not sure but I think Savoldelli has the ambiguous features here . She's cute, Savoldelli is not. :redface:

45 km to go, 4:00 minutes, Jumbo and Sky on the front of the peloton.
Rogla looking for revenge for sure.

...Kirby talking about Nibali, calling him Viviani ...dude never ceases to amaze me.

...and Pinot was "the chosen son" for the French at the RRWC ...never ceases to amaze me...

Kirby says that he's winning over most of the fans that don't like him.
Seriously, he said that.

Which shows how completely deluded he is.

Pinot means business!
Edit: killed his own team though.
Edit2: this weather could certainly favor attackers.
Edit3: and ofc Mohoric attacks on the descent!

 

[46&twoWheels]

I like how fake-climactic the San Luca circuit is.

 

[Velolover2]

Mohoric climbing better than ever.

 

[Climbing]

Group absolutely exploded.

 

[Laplaz]

De Marchi, Rosa and Mohoric on the attack

 

[Velolover2]

Very small peloton (40 riders) and still a couple laps to go.

This such a beautiful route. Especially when you compare it to the final k of Liege. Why isn't this stunning race a WT event?

 

[Andy262]

Geniez looks quite strong.

 

[Laplaz]

Mohoric is a mad man. Would love to see a downhill TT between him, Sagan, Alaphilippe and Kwiat.

 

[Squire]

So was that confirmation that Mohoric will win the Tour four years from now?

 

[Laplaz]

Roglic attacked

 

[Climbing]

Very dangerous now, raining cats and dogs.
Huge selection on this passage.

De Marchi flying.

 

[Velolover2]

20-30 riders left and constant attacks?

Compare this to Fleche Wallone where there is still 80 riders at the bottom of the last climb and a few attacks.

Re:

I was exactly thinking the same .
Fun fact Froome was almost as old 10 (almost) years ago, on San Luca, as Mohoric now.

 

[Climbing]

Rofl Mohoric!
What a beast.

Re:

But looks like a cow on ice descending in this wet.
