[Salvarani]

Haha it is Gesink

 

[Bonimenier]

Does this mean Gesink is the 1st option of JV this Vuelta?

 

[red_flanders]

They really are taking the piss.

 

[Ilmaestro99]

I hope Gesink, but this is not a finish where you can just easily decide who takes the jersey

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Samu Cuenca]

They didn't even raise their arms at the finish. Disappointing.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Gesink deserves it for attacking the Sky train on La Pierre Saint Martin in the Tour that one time

 

[titan31]

That was impressive from Jumbo. Finishing with the full team and smashing the time.

 

[Jumbo Visma Fan :)]

Gesink in red, nice gifting by the team.

 

[Netserk]

It could have been worse.

 

[Logic-is-your-friend]

The Australian TT champion who spent more time trying to hang on than pulling?

lol, because you had a camera on Ineos the entire time and can perfectly assess his input, right?

 

[Bonimenier]

I don't think Roglic is capable at doing that on a TT bike

Right

 

[Sciatic]

Jumbo to try to keep the entire top ten to themselves for 3 weeks!

Dang… Letting Gesink take the jersey brings a burning, teary sensation to the corners of my eyes… That’s pretty classy, even if I have to think they sacrificed some pace keeping the likes of Kuss and Gesink on-board for the finish

Are the DSs also in that top 10?

The doctors were likely against it or something like that.

 

[sir fly]

Quite a winning margin considering everything.
A rank above.

GC looks O.K..

Probably could have won this by 30-40s if they went all out... might come back to haunt them or they must be pretty confident in Roglic. Maybe he got back in shape pretty quick after the Tour.

 

[Netserk]

Rogla in green super powers unlocked for tomorrow!

 

[70kmph]

Race is over ?

 

[Bonimenier]

O'Connor lost less than a minute. Still the big favourite by a large margin.

 

[Lequack]

Race is over ?

Stage 1 for sure.

 

[postmanhat]

13 second gap means he'll likely keep the red jersey till next week, unless Hayter wins the next two stages?

 

[Sciatic]

Are the DSs also in that top 10?

Oops.

 

[Lequack]

The only question is, will Remco try to get the 14 seconds back while in the Netherlands already?
