imho, he's more likely to lose another 30-60s. peaked too soon as we were afraid...wheresmybrakes said:Roglic to win this stage. Time to start gaining some time back before the ITT.

Roglic must make the difference before Giro d'Italia time trial, say Jumbo-Visma
'2:16 in 17km is too much' to gain back on Carapaz in time trial

If Roglic has good legs then an attack in the last kms might get him some seconds. If Yates, Superman or Carthy go first, he could set up an alliance. Nibs problem is getting time on Carapaz.

I wish he would, watching him attacked in the Tour last year was great.

That's a pretty amazing photo. I think this herd could cause a little trouble for the riders if it's still possessing the road.
...yeah, people get mugged . Basically a Col de la Faucille MTF. Meh. If you want to backload a design, at least get nuts with that one.Rollthedice said:A lot can happen in those hairpin tunnels.

Interestingly, that particular stage was on paper harder than today as before "Montevergine di Rolle" there was also Croce d'Aune from Feltre. I guess Brocon was feasible to at least give some suspence before the probable uphill bunch sprint a good way behind the breakaway.

Sixteen riders finished with the same time as Di Luca, ten more were six seconds back, and a further 26 were inside a minute of his winning time.
