Giro d'Italia 2022 Giro d'Italia, Stage 20: Belluno – Marmolada 168 km (Saturday, May 28th)

[Eclipse]

Martin is bored so has decided to just ride

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Hatch saying fatigue is the reason, despite them rising leisurely around for most stages

Hatch is in the bargaining stage of grief.

 

[Sestriere]

This Giro doesn't deserve you, Guillaume!

 

[Amazinmets87]

Lol. Yes, Martin is bored, as is everyone else

 

[gunara]

At least we know Pogacar will attack, and Roglic likes to win stages at least.

Imagine having to rely on such dominant forces for excitement

and G.Martin

 

[Netserk]

No?

Sorry, I thought he wasn't there.

 

[Poursuivant]

Carapaz should ride this years tour, he hasn't had to do owt here

I wouldn’t be feeling confident if I was him starting a TT with a 3 second lead. Strange race.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

So Covi versus Novak for the win on the final mountain stage. Fitting.

 

[Rollthedice]

Gogo Meme Martin.

Sir Martin , the Lord Saviour of the Giro.

 

[Andy262]

Another shocker so far.

 

[Pirazziattacks]

Clearly Carapaz and Hindley both want to be like Primoz and stomp their way to an easy lead. It just aint that easy.

 

[Amazinmets87]

Carapaz should ride this years tour, he hasn't had to do owt here

I wish Pog would have ridden this. He would have won with so little energy expenditure. Basically a training ride. Then we could see about the double...

Imagine having to rely on such dominant forces for excitement

and G.Martin

It's still a lot better than guys who refuse to attack and are on teams with no interest in winning stages with them.

I'll take Pogacars attacking and the Jumbo train for the Roglic sprint over this shite.

 

[KZD]

Novak still in the break, going with the best in the chase group. Not exactly saving himself to be of service to Landa.

He now attacked to try to win the stage so I don't think he is worried about Landa

 

[Velolover2]

At least the bonus seconds are gone now..

 

[Pirazziattacks]

Confirmation that they are riding slow. Martin attacking!!!!!

Something must be going on!!! I don't buy it!

What's going on is the same thing that's been going on in the GC group for most of the race- not much.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

It's just because Martin only knows one pace and is incapable of braking.

 

[Lequack]

And Hindely attacks from the back, crating a 10 second gap immediately!

PS: just kidding, we know that would never happen.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Clearly Carapaz and Hindley both want to be like Primoz and stomp their way to an easy lead. It just aint that easy.

Both of them deserve to lose. Would be hilarious if they run into a mild bout of Covid and have to pull out tomorrow morning, except that nobody else deserves it either.

 

[AlfaLum]

I think after this Giro the UCI should consider serious time penalties for passive riding.

 

[Eclipse]

Lol Ineos are bored of Bahrain

 

[titan31]

What's going on is the same thing that's been going on in the GC group for most of the race- not much.

Clearly a united strike about the lack of TT Kms in the race. These guys wanted more to suit their skillset.

 

[ice&fire]

Brilliant tactics from Bahrain... for the stage win. Make everyone believe your man in the break is launchpad for Landa. Set the pace in the bunch to let the break arrive to the finish.

 

[Netserk]

Landa probably with bad legs.

 

[titan31]

I think Novak might have waited too long to attack.
