2025 40th Settimana Internazionale Coppi e Bartali (2.1)

[Netserk]

Vine will take it.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Vine a bit of a Salvodelli style character really pushing out the gap on the descent as I predicted.

 

[Samamba]

Looking good for Ulissi/Astana for GC now with Double and Widar gone.

Looking good for Ulissi/Astana for GC now with Double and Widar gone.

Can't see many Astana riders in that group

 

[danielzu]

I think velasco and kajamini both got dropped, i only see one astana helmet in that group

 

[Didinho]

Vine descending like Reichenbach’s grandmother and gaining time.

 

[Netserk]

15 riders in the chase group.

Ulissi could well be dropped in these conditions with wet descents.

 

[Samamba]

I just realized I was watching on a 4min delay

 

[Tim Cahill]

Who's still there, Tullett and Sheffield?

Worth trying to snatch some bonuses here, could be the difference.

 

[Netserk]

Bravo, Vine!

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Vine, the rain man.

 

[Netserk]

Sheffield 2nd!

 

[yaco]

I suspect the peleton is waiting for bonus seconds at the finish. there is no way you can not bring back such an average descender as Vine.

 

[Samamba]

Widar 2nd!

Thats Sheffield.. .

 

[Tim Cahill]

Looked like the Sky rider took it, Sheffield? if Double and Ulissi are dropped then he will move into the lead I think.

 

[Samamba]

Velasco was there but don't think Ulissi made it

 

[SafeBet]

Sheffield, Velasco, Pinarello.

 

[Berflamand]

Good for UAE to get a win, even if it's in a smaller race like Coppi e Bartali.

After all, it's already been almost 24 hours since their last win.

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Where's Paul double???

 

[Brullnux]

Another Astana rider about 20 seconds back

 

[Brullnux]

Great win by Sheffield

 

[Netserk]

Sheffield new leader ahead of Tulett and De Pretto?

 

[Samamba]

Sheffield new leader ahead of Tulett and De Pretto?

I think Velasco is in same time, but it should be Sheffield then. Very close between some riders anyways.

EDIT: nvm I'm dumb, Sheffield was 2nd of course

 

[Berflamand]

No surprise really that on a wet and technical parcours like today well-known prime bike handlers Vine and Sheffield end up first and second.
