what time the presentation is Today? and is it somewhere broadcasted?

 

[OlavEH]

10 Scandiano - Viareggio
11 Camaiore - Tortona
12 Bra - Rivoli
13 Borgofranco di Ivrea - Crans Montana
14 Sierre - Cassano Magnago
15 Seregno - Bergamo
REST
16 Sabbio Chiese - Monte Bondone
17 Pergine Valsugana - Caorle
18 Oderzo - Zoldo Alto
19 Longarone - Tre Cime di Lavaredo
20 Tarvisio - Monte Lussari ITT

Unless they do something spectacular on they way to Crans, the second week looks pretty bad. An probably underwhelming MTF and a medium good hilly stage to Bergamo. That's just lame. The last week does look better, but the MTT is just so unnecessary. This route would have been significantly better if they added a big mountain stage in the second week and replaces the Lussari stage with a proper medium mountain stage instead.

Dunno about the broadcast. Rai for sure, maybe somewhere else too.

There will be an international broadcast on the official Giro d'Italia websites, social media and YT for example.

Crans-Montana is probably a make it or break it stage for the Giro.
Something before or after GSB and Anzere as the penultimate climb (with the descent leading right into Crans-Montana from Lens) would be a bit over 220kms long and a great stage. At that point we probably already have had 50-55kms of ITT, so people would have a reason to attack on the penultimate climb.

Not much that you can put before Bondone if you make it a monster MTF from Trento.

well, some really good hilly/medium mountain stages can compensate a bit. But for having a 2nd big stage where riders can attack from far (beside the Tre Cime di Lavaredo) , it's depending on the crans montana stage indeed.

Bondono stage will always about the final climb, even if they make the stage really hard.

A great day to be alive - don't disappoint me now, Mauro!

 

[ChiefMasterPro]

In my opinion (still looking for the other two 5-star-stages) a lot depends on the amount of climbing before Monte Bodone and Crans Montana. And by that I don't only mean the total altitude gain, but also the amount of climbing in the hour before the final climb, so that teams may be able to wear down the legs of some riders. What fears me a lot is the fact, that stage 13 might start in Ivrea (outside Val Aosta), so even without extra climbs in the Rhone valley the length of the stage is pretty descent. I hope you can follow geographically

 

[Valv.Piti]

Surely this will be one for the ages...

The overall map looks promising for Crans Montana, if it can be trusted.

The stage to Rivoli looks interesting. There are a lot of interesting mountains west of Torino. Looks like a loop there.

 

[DJ Sprtsch]

Looks like a trip along the Amalfi coast on the Napoli stage. Already looking forward to the scenery.

outside of italy and jesus christ, the commentating and translations on gcn racing are as stiff as a board.
Still, official livestream for anyone outside Italy:

Its unwatchable. Oh well, cya in an hour

33.6km is far too short for a long ITT.

Instead of 2 ITT in the first 9 stages, would have been better had we had a single 52km ITT

 

[ChiefMasterPro]

Still no sound out of the theatre. Idiots
