Ethan Hayter auditioning for a helper role again.

Imagine driving along that road on a dark (and stormy) night, and then you meet a car coming from the opposite direction.

[Samamba]

Plapp dropped

 

[Samamba]

Hope Ineos goes full again the next 4km to make it as hard as possible.

 

[Logic-is-your-friend]

Plapp plopped.

 

[Savant12]

Lemmen almost back in the bunch; legs must be sour now.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Ineos' pace hasn't been impressive at all, Berthet is holding steady and they haven't gotten rid of many numbers either.

They've gotten rid of a few Ineos riders at least.

Alaphilippe climbing well

Well, two Ineos riders, they still have almost their whole team. Hayter definitely has the watts.

 

[Mayomaniac]

Alaphilippe climbing well

Him stagehunting could be one of the few interesting things at the Giro

Berthet was with the 15 best on the first climb, he's having a good day. Ineos obviously not going full like on first climb, but blame that on the parcours.

Brenner is missing as well, but that seems to be it from the GC guys.

Last week Berthet said that going for GC in Romandie was his goal for this part of the season, so he seems to be in good shape.

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Badilatti is evidently not a good descender.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

It's a shame Monsieur Labous is on his own here. That's gonna kill him later.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Look at Ethan Salvodelli despatching the rest on the descent here, haven't I been saying all week what a class bike handler he is.

Is today the day Ayuso proves UAE are not just team Pogi?

Don‘t know, maybe if he wins the Tour de France five years in a row and every other decent climber on the team wins a GT I‘ll believe it‘s not Team Pogi.

They hardly win anything.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Who needs teammates when you've got enemies like INEOS?

 

[Tim Cahill]

UAE down to a mere 4 riders, problem is this climb isn't much

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Ineos seem to have shifted into reverse.

 

[Mayomaniac]

Castroviejo is cooked, Berthet is gaining time on the bunch.
