Giro d'Italia 2023 Giro d’Italia, Stage 20: Tarvisio- Monte Lussari, 18.6km MTT

The drone shot following Glogg as he got the crowd going was more entertaining than yesterday stage

 

[RedheadDane]

Now my commentators says one has to leave 25 meter in front if caught from behind?!

Not sure exactly how long it has to be, but longer than the distance Bettiol was keeping to Mollema.

Yeah that should be adding seconds.

 

[Red Rick]

Tom Gloag definitely not tired from all that work for Roglic

 

[Ilmaestro99]

The stage design is really cool, it was just placed in the totally wrong way

 

[Jumbo Visma Fan :)]

Love to see cyclists enjoying themselves on the bike.

Yes?

 

[Netserk]

Bettiol is just drafting Mollema?

Mollema should have taken it easier before the bike change so that he could draft Bettiol after it.

I have looked forward to this stage for 6 months and so far it's ecxeeding my expectations on all acounts.
Are we close to Triglav?

With all these wheelies and high fives with the crowds, something tells me some of these riders are not taking the race seriously. Does nobody want to win the stage?

Your mum would have ridden sub 48 here, right?

Start at the top, finish in Tarvisio. Now you're talking

 

[Jumbo Visma Fan :)]

Riccitello our best bet for a top finish out of the first two waves, so far he is flying.

Problem with this ITT is that normally you would have GC riders competing with ITT specialists and the random decent ITTER who has been hiding for most of the race, however this ITT will have a limited selection of riders.

 

[Barnacle Bill]

No wheelies from Bling, gave it everything. quite a ride

 

[tobydawq]

Matthews going for it! I don't know for what, but cool to see!

 

[Netserk]

Nice to see, I thought Riccitello was too tired at this point.

 

[Red Rick]

Matthews legit looked at this MTT profile and said: "This is a Michael Matthews stage"

 

[tobydawq]

Two minutes off the time, Cancellara-like.

Around 50 km by road, a bit less as the crow flies.

 

[KZD]

Riccitello taking 2 minutes on Champion, brutal time, could very well be top10.

 

[Aimar16]

Tudor watch is broken? That's a very good time

 

[HelloDolly]

How was he 40 sec behind but at the end almost 2 mins ahead ????

 

[Savant12]

Monster time.

2'15'' on Matthews. Seems quite realistic.
