Respect Fortunato

Just shows that the pace is a joke. Probably not a top 20 climber in the race creates a 30s gap within 1km.

Adam Hansen: "To provide clarity from the riders' perspective, the weather conditions experienced during this year's Giro have been among the most intense. In response, the riders held a vote last night to invoke the extreme weather protocol."

Evading the effects of bad weather retrospectively just doesn't work. These guys don't need a protocol, They need a time machine.

This is why we needed Remco with 2 minutes at this point of the race

 

[Red Rick]

Honestly the climb doesnt help the action at all

Jumbo have a platoon of riders, but for what if it keeps on like this?

Clearly going for team classification instead of a stage

 

[noob]

Oh.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Wheelsucker Cepeda is going to win this one to put the icing on the cake, isn't he?

 

[saunaking]

Just try to see it this way guys

This is the biggest win for long stage propaganda in a long, long time

GCN:
FIREWORKS AS PIONT AND CEPEDA RECREATE CONTADOR RASUMUSSEN EPIC BATTLE

 

[dazaau]

Cepeda coming back

This petty fight is the most interesting thing in this stage so far. And Cepeda wouldn't work on the flat so I'm on board, but I think Pinot is probably cutting off his nose to spite his face here ha ha.

 

[Third Time Lucky]

C’mon Pinot, drop these wheel suckers!

 

[Gigs_98]

The way this is going actually isn't that bad for Pinot. If Cepeda is constantly a few meters behind him he doesn't really save energy and Pino can probably handle him in a sprint. At the same time he is going at a pretty decent pace so he is actually even gaining time on the peloton right now.

 

[Ricco']

Clearly going for team classification instead of a stage

That's why they can't sign Jay Vine.

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Almida hasn't even started dangling yet this is super easy

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Pinkot incoming

 

[TourOfSardinia]

At least the moto loves Tibo

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Lesser GC riders just outright bored right now.

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Lol Cepeda

 

[Tim Cahill]

Well done EF, *** these guys

 

[DNP-Old]

Go Aleeeex.

 

[Bonimenier]

Cepeda masterclass

 

[glassmoon]

Cepeda lol... love it!

 

[Gigs_98]

I bet Carthy is only attacking to defend his position against Pinot.

 

[Red Rick]

Pinot is the elevator pitch of this Giro

 

[Scarponi]

Contador would be having a mental breakdown staying in the peleton haha

 

[Netserk]

Grande Cepeda!
