Giro d'Italia 2022 Giro d'Italia, Stage 12: Parma – Genova 204 km (Thursday, May 19th)

Bardiani needs to get relegated. Make additional tiers if need be

I've said this before, but the bottom half or so of ProTeams on the UCI ranking should be ineligible for GT wildcards. Solves the problem immediately and gives more interesting teams from other countries a chance too.

WTF Rai

What happened ?

What happened ?

Images was lost for five minutes or so. Thankfully back now

Bardiani needs to be relegated for ruining all the decent u23 riders they got after 2018. Anyone who ends up with them becomes worse than they were in the u23 ranks...

 

[spalco]

The Bardianis are getting closer.

 

[Samamba]

Didn't expect to make it tbh. A good choice to try to attack instead of just chasing with peloton.

From this year RAI does not take care anymore of TV shooting and broadcasting of Giro.

A belgian company , called EMG, take care of this. RAI purchase the images from this company as all others TV (also eurosport, GCN etc.)

The same company, but with a different team, take care of Le Tour too.
The team that take care of Giro is the same that take care of Flanders classics.

All camera operators, motorcycle drivers, helicopters, all the technology and the tv director are from belgium.

Rai does nothing from a techical point of view. Rai only purchase the images

Bardiani being Bardiani.

These teams need to have riders who are alone or in a very small group in the break in order to be visible for the cameras, the sponsors together with Gianni Savio can stay glued to the TV all stage and enjoy.

 

[HelloDolly]

Love if one of the Bardianis won the stage now

 

[spalco]

They actually made it, that's funny. I would have agreed with all here who mocked their effort previously, I didn't expect that either.

 

[Earns1985]

The breakaway will make it to the finish. The question is how much time will the peleton give the peleton until the end.

Trek will be ok to give them 9-10 minutes in the end. With Mollema in the front group even this is not a given.

As Bahrain, Ineos and DSM I wouldn´t let Keldermann win back more than five miutes today. So I expect them to help with the chase in a few kilometeres..

 

[gregrowlerson]

Holding at 4-5 minutes. Wilco certainly not getting back into gc contention.

 

[GenericBoonenFan]

What happened ?

RAI is no longer in charge of the broadcasting.

Edit: @Tour de Berghem already pointed this out.

MVdP pulling on the cat3??

MVdP pulling on the cat3??

guess they'd like to drop the sprinters... or at least make them suffer as much as possible

 

[DoYouEvenRideBruh]

Remco spotted

VdP doesn't have to drop anyone at the end unless he fucks up majorly, he just needs to get there.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Does McEwen think Rota is a sprinter? If he has over a minute at the bottom of the next climb he is definitely still ahead at the top of it...

 

[dgodave]

That was an ok looking bridge.

 

[Raggamuffin]

Remco spotted

That was an ok looking bridge.

Was Remco underneath it?

 

[Samamba]

Looking great for Rota. Oldani maybe if he has his Etna legs.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

BikeExchange the only team with multiple riders in the break not in this move, they really aren't going well.

Also, why is Van Der Poel chasing when Oldani is pulling up front?

 

[Samamba]

Ok Alpecin...
