Giro d'Italia 2023 Giro d'Italia, Stage 19: Longarone – Tre Cime di Lavaredo 183 km (Friday, May 26th)

[DNP-Old]

Yk If Jumbo just used al those useless domestics today Roglic would've gotten 4 extra seconds and a stage win

Here's hoping Roglic loses the Giro by 3 seconds.

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Chapeau, Buitrago!

Bummer Gee couldn't get it done, but he's definitely gained a fan in me. Hope to see more good stuff from him!

 

[Bonimenier]

UAE will do a 1-2 tomorrow. Will it be enough to catch G?

 

[noob]

Sepp out of breath. Take that!

 

[Netserk]

*** hell! Got randomly logged off GCN, and now I can't log back in!

Sad. If you are unable to watch it live, I know you won't catch it on demand later.

 

[hrotha]

Jumbo could've had a stage win and 4 extra seconds but they preferred their 8 guys to do nothing apart from paddeling along and slowly dropping.

Look it might look like it was a waste because their 47 domestiques did nothing at all but you have no idea how many bear attacks they deterred just by being there

 

[glassmoon]

remco would have 10 mins on those clowns before stage 20 :/

 

[KOM]

Sepp Kuss: "the climbs were hard enough" Oh boy not sure if libertine will survive tonight

 

[Scarponi]

Kuss was useless today really

'Tre Cime didn't disappoint'

Firing Hatch > firing Vegni

I'm just shaking my head at Hatch; it is so painful listening to the commentators trying to put lipstick on this pig. Uggh.

Orla at least gets it when she called that horrific.

 

[Rackham]

UAE will do a 1-2 tomorrow. Will it be enough to catch G?

Am I missing a joke here somewhere? How will they get 1-2 tomorrow?

Almeida looked toast at the end there.

Arensman will won tomorrow

 

[Eddy Evenepoel]

Really funny Cort stealing those bonus seconds actually.

 

[Salvarani]

Masterclass in controlling and deading the race today from Ineos

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Tre Cime
3 Peaks
3 secs?

 

[Riek s]

Roglic and almeida not good enough to threaten Thomas.

Roglic can be happy he has a sprint or he would have lost 10seconds here. Kind of the roglstomp after dropping. Seems in pure climbing he can't compete with Thomas, so i'm assuming if they raced hard on the previous climbs, Thomas would have won by a distance...

I don't make jokes.

 

[Valv.Piti]

Roglic really deserves to lose this race racing like today. G with a couple of seconds tomorrow.

 

[Escarabajo]

Bottom line to Giro, cannot have these type of stages in the third week, otherwise there is a big risk that this will happen. And in the second week there is a risk of weather issues. Well in the third as well so it is better to move the hard stages 1 week.

10s is just climbing ability here not being lucky you have a sprint.

 

[gunara]

Apparently Tre Cime didn't disappoint according to Hatch.

What race was he watching?

Come on guys, I'm sure commentators were as disgusted as us by the show, they just got paid to hde it. Not sure if we could in his position.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

I'm just shaking my head at Hatch; it is so painful listening to the commentators trying to put lipstick on this pig. Uggh.

IMO he, and any other commentators sugarcoating this race, are a hindrance more than a help. Yes, it may put off some casual viewers if you're being honest about this race, but sometimes a race is so bad that it's unhealthy for there not to be proper backlash and this is one such occasion.

 

[Ricco']

With the amount of coffees I need to drink to watch this crap, Segafredo might consider start sponsoring the Giro.
