And after that the same final hill + rolling circuit (albeit only one lap instead of two) as in the U23 Giro stage earlier this year.

At last some live images, I don't speak Italian so I'll just have to use my imagination as to what the Rai commentators are saying. They've been showing some lovely, historical images of Valdengo, and apparently Ganna wasn't hurt in the CRO race after all seeing as he's racing today. (Finally found that out.)
Break of 4 and peloton roughly 5 mins behind, 85km to go

And they are inching toward the big climb... I think this route will have a little bit of everything scenery-wise, I'm looking forward to the green stuff and the hills. Some clouds in the background...
Who is the Alpecin rider who is wearing black socks with the denim jersey, btw.? It looks terrible.

And they're climbing, Ponomar, Zukowsky, Munoz, and Colnaghi are the break, peloton is about 3.5 mins behind.
Lovely images of green hills and some chapels !

It's a very green and lush area, perfect for hikes and bike rides but even some rafting in the Sesia River. I love this part of Piedmont.
Peloton picking up the pace on the climb... some parts of the road look wet even though it's not raining. Was it raining earlier?
They went all out, doubt this will be a sprint. Descent is also wet so could be even more splits.
Yup it's been heavily raining until this morning.
Lidl trying to force a selection on the descent as well.
Now Mohoric attacking, hard to understand how far the peloton is but yeah it looks like a selective race.
I don't think the peloton sees that group again. By the time the peloton gets bigger and organized the gap is probably up to 2 minutes.
Group can't get too big tho cause then there won't be any cooperation
There should be a 2nd group somewhere on the road in between but looking at how they haven't passed Mohoric yet this race will be between the guys in the first group as Trek and UNO X have multiple guys there to keep the pace high enough
Well unless they immediately start attacking i guess

Frigo and Schultz alone are just not going to do it
Where are Zimmermann and Bernard hanging out cause Intermarché needs to make a choice, they have Bussato in that group

Ulissi, Baroncini and Covi there but I agree, I expected at least a couple of them in the selected group.
you understand why Brian Smith gets annoyed all the time. 1 race that Pog isn't in, big chance to win and only 1 team working to bring back 1 + 2
