And then spent the rest of the finale taking turns once he caught Carapaz. Laughable to say he was a wheelsucker today, there's next to zero air resistance effect on that wall anyway.

What a stage!
35 seconds for the Bahrain group is much less bad than I thought given that they dropped off the timing/coverage entirely. A whole lot of chasing today.

Valverde 12th...
...at 8 minutes down.

This Giro is definitely not over and not boring
Never mind what all the moaners on here say
There a few riders that can still win

He was literally the one who blew it apart first on Superga despite still having Buchman there lmao.
We are blessed that in Hindley and Carapaz we appear to have two guys who will drop the hammer a long way out and who will throw caution to the wind.
This creates a great tension with a diesel like Almeida plugging away behind them.
(and there's a wildcard appearing to have discovered some form swimming not that far back)
Team. Bora was great. Hindley was strong but raced like prime Valverde. I hate it. Him soft pedaling in front of the group letting Carapaz increase the lead isn´t exactly supporting his case.
Sitting on Nibali´s wheel. Jumping up to Carapaz. Sitting on Carapaz wheel again. Waiting for Nibali and Yates to catch them.
First class wheel sucker. Not like this is the first time. Sitting behind Ineos leaders is his go to move.
Thats actually ridiculously impressive that he kept riding hard that long and passed a load of people.
Someone is taking the pi$$ with Valverde still in the top 10. lmao
He looked to do more riding than Carapaz imo when the 4 joined together at the top of the climb.
I’m not saying you have to like him. He is Australian so of course a wheelsucker by nature.
however you criticize Bora, which for me isn’t fair at all. And I also think Hindley had some entertaining moves today. Definitely not wheelsucking all the time.
Interesting. The Shark within 3 minutes.
Absolute meme.
Feels like he's not even in it to win the Giro despite having the best TT and only being 30s down.
Well taken stage by Yates. Nibali had a good day. Thought Carapaz was going to blow on the last climb but he rode well. Bora and Hindley look good. Nice run in the pink for Lopez. Landa looked under pressure a fair way out. Good rides by Pozzo and Almeida.
