You should be a cycling commentator

I probably should.

 

[Sciatic]

Every time in these packed summit sections with idiots running alongside, it’s hard not to imagine that one of these races a fan will trip and fall in front of a rider and take him down. Hopefully they have a special section in the criminal code to cover that.

Pellizzari put up more of a fight than most gc riders...

almost like the days in the grupetto help in some way

 

[Salvarani]

Campionissimo!

The GOAT

 

[iBanesto]

Pogacar's shorts don't look great...

 

[Brullnux]

Is Pellizzari still second on the road? He is the GOAT imo

 

[Libertine Seguros]

Thanks Adam Blythe.

Blythe's insights have improved that much?!

 

[Red Rick]

I probably should.

Tbh I think you make too much sense much of the time and you're probably not nearly chauvinistic enough.

 

[Brullnux]

almost like the days in the grupetto help in some way

Yeah I mean he was extremely ill for ages, this is still an excellent ride.

Would be interesting to see time gap to Pellizari. Wonder if he can make it back on the descent as I'd imagine Pogacar will take it safer

 

[iBanesto]

Blythe's insights have improved that much?!

Usually he has to wait till the final day to pick the winner...

 

[Red Rick]

Pellizzari still going strong.

 

[Salvarani]

There is still the climb in the descent

 

[Libertine Seguros]

Tiberi needs to do more work if he wants to get onto the podium, letting Martínez defend 2nd isn't going to cut it, but of course it depends on Tiberi having the legs for it. Paret-Peintre is doing a great job for O'Connor (and by extension, Thomas) in the group behind.

 

[will-10]

Yeah I mean he was extremely ill for ages, this is still an excellent ride.

hopefully he can still swindle the Martinez group for 2nd

 

[Brullnux]

Pellizzari still going strong.

Yeah post Pog dropping him he hasn't lost much time to Martinez and co at all.

 

[Red Rick]

Tiberi's style is eerilie similar to Enricy Mas

 

[Salvarani]

They are only like 10 seconds behind Pellizzari

 

[iBanesto]

Tiberi's style is eerilie similar to Enricy Mas

So no change of speed?

 

[titan31]

Ah, Pellizari is 1:20 behind. He's not coming back then. Was thinking it was closer, he might have a chance and Pogacar probably wouldn't even mind

 

[will-10]

some ride from VPP this

 

[Froome]

Pogacar is moving a lot his shoulders. Fortunately for him this is the Giro.

I'm not gonna lie. I expected a bigger gap from Pogacar against this field on Monte Grappa. At least 3 minutes. 1 min and 20 s is not that high against this riders. Probably the watts were low.

 

[Tim Cahill]

British guy having his Giro saved by the French Bobby Sands, what irony.

Ah, Pellizari is 1:20 behind. He's not coming back then. Was thinking it was closer, he might have a chance and Pogacar probably wouldn't even mind

Even if he got closer over the first part of the descend, he'd loose big in this mean ramp again.

Someone clothesline one of those fans. Fecking muppets
