2019 Giro d'Italia, stage 3: Vinci - Orbetello 220 km

[shalgo]

Easiest mountain points ever for Ciccone.

 

[King Boonen]

Will we get some excitement..?

 

[Pirazziattacks]

Over on Eurosport they've reached Alan Partridge levels of inanity. I can't blame them though, a 200k+ neutralised stage is a bit much. Oh good Sean Kelly's back, can't have any more of this clowning around.

Last 300 meters

Unless something unexpected happens with crosswinds, I think we have an early contender for the "Most Boring GT Stage of the Year" award.

 

[Pantani_lives]

Why is the stage neutralized? Are they protesting against climate change or something?

 

[tobydawq]

It's not neutralised.

 

[Climbing]

Someone lost his sarcasm detector...

 

[King Boonen]

So slow, much neutral...

 

[tobydawq]

Hmm... I have just seen a lot of people writing it in different places.

 

[RedheadDane]

Welcome to the second part of Redhead is an idiot!
I was wondering what the hell Viviani was doing sitting on the wheel of... Viviani. (It was Jungels, obviously. I'm just dumb, and colourblind.)

 

[King Boonen]

More neutral than a doctors waiting room.

 

[spalco]

It's almost starting to look like somebody wants to win this stage. Not quite yet, but almost.

 

[glassmoon]

Drama!

 

[King Boonen]

They are absolutely desperate for something to happen...

 

[Climbing]

Unavoidable crashes ofc, sure peloton split there.

 

[Rollthedice]

There is definitely a split.

 

[shalgo]

Fubo/Flobikes: "We're experiencing signal issues from the video source. We're working on it and will get things running in no time."

 

[spalco]

Surely some GC guys caught up in the second group imo.

Pretty stupid end after such a sleepy stage.

 

[Climbing]

Yeah, it felt like Viviani was actually quicker, nice sprint.

 

[King Boonen]

Great sprint from Viviani.

 

[Rollthedice]

Viviani delivered.

 

[Eyeballs Out]

Carapaz probably caught behind after that puncture

 

[glassmoon]

diagonal elia

 

[King Boonen]

Took his line and held it. Nowt wrong with that.
