I would say that if Ayuso is gapped today, even if he manages to come back in the descent, it will be almost impossible for him to stay close to Vingegaard on Monte Petrano.

This is kind of stage that Bagioli should be contesting for the win.

Ayuso would have to be seeing stars at the top of the climb for that to happen. Literally nothing so far suggests that Ayuso is worse downhill than Vingegaard.
It´s possible, that other riders will stay with Ayuso. The question is, do they want to ride with Ayuso. If not, Ayuso has to decide if he wants to pull the other riders the whole way to the finish. If not, could lead to a time loss, because of disagreement in the group.
