Lol, Kämna. You should have let go on the last climb and dropped out of GC so you could win on Sunday.
Better just to win on Sunday and then the Giro.

They were all at the limit. It's not like Formolo and Mollema just stopped pushing and let Bouwman get back.They let Bouwman ride back at his own pace while the others had been attacking each other.
Of course as it took him a while to get back.They were all at the limit. It's not like Formolo and Mollema just stopped pushing and let Bouwman get back.
Kämna will be in Rosa after Sunday.Better just to win on Sunday and then the Giro.
Kämna winning the uphill sprint from the bunch despite him being a diesel climber.
He isn't feeling the chain atm, be afraid of him on the Blockhaus stage!
Stranger things have happened. There's a little bit of 2015 Dumoulin about him.I think Blockhaus will be too hard for Kamna to contest the stage.
Not surprising when Alejandro is not racing to win anythingGuys.
Vincenzo outsprinted Alejandro
I guess minor placings really do mean something for VincenzoGuys.

Kämna is just having fun . I believe that he won't contest the GC but I never saw him so good in the first week. Normally he gets better and better in a Grand Tours.Kämna winning the uphill sprint from the bunch despite him being a diesel climber.

It’s a pleasure to watch how smooth and efficient his riding style is. And it was funny to see the difference between him and some of his companions in the break who are all over their bikesGood to see Dumoulin racing again.
Nice win for Bouwman, he didn't beat some pancakes there. The wait for Mollema to win stages in all GT's continues
it was just easy because Bouwman was the fastestIncredible that JV won that given how badly they rode it
The Barb calls it again!
Kämna likes his mountain stages hard, the harder the better for him.I think Blockhaus will be too hard for Kamna to contest the stage.
Time limits are a joke in the Giro, like missing one these days should be a 3 month suspension, not just getting kicked from the race.Gruppetto came in 42 minutes behind.
Seems like everybody made the cut.

When in the stage did the grupetto get dropped?
Places life savings on LandaKamna is super strong at the moment but Blockhaus shapes as being a proper GC day (especially with a rest day the day after, Ineos and Bahrain will ensure the break doesn’t win). Will be really interesting to see who the strongest climber is at the moment. I have no real feel for it but I’m leaning towards Landa.
