Formolino getting dropped...

Yesterday he dropped in the same moment as Gaviria ;/

(D)on't (S)top (M)e Now! Bardet's having a good time, having a good time!

 

[topcat]

Preparing a surprise attack from the 75th position in the peloton.

Once he gets over the altitude sickness

They've just had a call from DSM yesterday, who complained about a poor tv exposure

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Every other team in twos and threes and then Puccio's still there...

 

[ppanther92]

DSM doing way better than Bike Exchange. But its more a diesel climb, so group still huge.

Higher tempo also very unfortunate for Großschartner.

 

[Red Rick]

Guys guys.

Remember that Sivakov crashed ou for Ineos

 

[Mayomaniac]

Valter's climbing style while seated reminds me of Pinot's "riding a donkey" seated climbing.

 

[sir fly]

I'm expecting more snow on the Spluga roadside.

 

[Lequack]

Does any team do any planning other than attack the last climb?

 

[dgodave]

Not a good stage for basilicas, castelli, or hill towns.

 

[BlueRoads]

Sky's dark... will we see the final of this race?

 

[Lequack]

Weather is bad, this means that Bernal will attack and gain time, not lose it.

Guys guys.

Remember that Sivakov crashed ou for Ineos

Imagine if he was still there. People wouldn't accept Bernal's win for sure (they already find it hard to do). "It's not him, it's Ineos, Simon would've been 10min ahead with a team like that"

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Luckily we're not in Romandie, otherwise they would probably neutralise the descent due to all that snow.
I'm surprised the CPA has allowed this stage to take place unshortened.

 

[CyclistAbi]

Friendly reminder to Bernal by the chainsaw squad.

 

[Mayomaniac]

Still 11° on top of the climb, that's not cold for this kind of altitude.

 

[Giro1914]

Dsm is making the gap!

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Was that Caruso?

Edit: never mind.

 

[Lequack]

Before the stage

 

[Devil's Elbow]

This is a beauty of a descent.

 

[titan31]

Shame someone like Yates of Caruso weren't following there. Pretty stupid they didn't get on their wheels straight away tbh

 

[Rollthedice]

DSM TTT.

 

[ppanther92]

DSM team time trial.

They were blocked by Ineos xd
