[Rollthedice]

Pink jersey at 8 hours and counting.

 

[Sylvester]

Quite the feat: the break are 9 hours ahead of the maglia rosa!

 

[Hugo87]

Very difficult today to form the "final" break of the day.

Re: Re:

Gods, ES ads are annoying, but Rai Sport commercial breaks feel like they are 10 minutes long.

at least they have some hot chick pedaling in the studio

That TV show is the worst thing happening to cycling in a long time. Can't believe they waste a healthy hour for this **** while the stage is going on.

(likely georestricted)

this is actually great! you always have live pictures, (and you can choose the camera), no breaks, plus the commentators if you want

Who's pushing the pace in the peloton? The break is getting no time at all so far.

The two women in the studio are gorgeous, but this is really kind of ridiculous.

Rai

The final climb is nowhere near hard enough for Nibali or Quintana to gain the two minutes they need on Dumo. They need to try something long range

 

[lartiste]

there are four or five guys from Sunweb pushing the pace of maglia rosa group

 

[King Boonen]

4 Webbers on the front? Big Tam's up for the fight.

Then its good the Giro doesn't end today isn't it, Andrew

"Pushing"?

Gap out to 3 mins now.

Other teams need to get back on front and get rid of them.

If they can't do it today then it's hard to imagine them getting this time on Piancavallo or the terrible 20th stage

 

[PremierAndrew]

Anyone got an english stream please?

 

[spalco]

Well, the Sunweb mountain train is more like a horse-drawn tram than a TGV.

 

[lartiste]

it is clear, that the group slowed down a lot since on the first climb there was just Ten Dam with TD in the group ...
