Why say this with just one break which turned out not to be definitive!
Could have taken rosa today. But it would require him to actually work instead of wheelsucking. And of course he sprints for 2nd. Valverde would be proud. Bora turning into peak Movistar. Carapaz has it in the bag. Loser mentality won´t beat him.

Hindley keeps the GC watchable. Almeida . . . not quite out of it. Chapeau, Simon. Carapaz the favorite.

You know that Almeida descents like a granny when Pozzovivo of all people drops him like nothing.
Hands on the drops, not on the hoods Joao!

I thought that too. Hopefully he can regain time on the next mountain stages

The last GT Movistar won was thanks to a long distance escape, just saying.

According to the Rai moto Landa was descending like a mad man

Woooo, Simon!
I was kinda pulling for Nibali because this is apparently his last Giro, but well done Yates. Well earned!

Excellent stage in the end. The Carapaz versus Hindley battle set up today should be very good, Hindley has proven to have the better sprint and team by now. And we all know people like Nibali and Landa will add some spice. The hype is alive.

Loser mentality? You’ve got to be kidding.

He may have had a sans jour and suffered in the heat
The weather will be colder in the Dolomites
If there is any team not riding with a loser mentality today it’s Bora. If we have any team to thank for this first great stage in the Giro it is them.
Hindley also the only real leader that worked in the chase behind Carapaz.
Sitting on wheels. Attacking. More wheel sucking. Attacking. Letting the winning move go without even trying to chase. More wheel sucking. Sprint for 2nd. Not my cup of tea.

This was an absolutely AMAZING stage. I was really really hoping the Squalo could have it, but chapeau to Yates. He timed his attack very well, had the legs, and kept his lead on the descent.

Richie is a better time-trialer than Hindley, but maybe not by a wide margin, depending on how much flat road is involved.

Yeah you’re right, he and team rode extremely well and moved closer to the lead in the bike race

Bora did make the stage today
but Hindley sat on Nibali on the climb and then attacked him....not on

Same TT as 2019, so half of it is up and down Torricelle. You'd expect one of them will drop the other at some point though so I doubt it will come down to that, maybe if Almeida or Landa claws his way back.

Peak Movistar was winning 6 Tours, 2 Giros, and 2 Vueltas in a 10 year span. I’d take those results 9 times out of ten.
