Wow thats quite a salmon color on that basilica!

 

[Mayo from Mayo]

There is no commentary on RAI due to a journalists strike. It's been a pleasure watching with only ambient noise from the finish and the helicopter.

 

[Cassirer]

I feel at least 2 IQ points dumber everytime they broadcast something Jens Voigt has to say.

I didn't start with many of those points.

Thats entirely on you, I myself feel that I could easily be a cycling tv expert whenever I hear him!

Will it raining at the finish?

PCS says it is ...

Why is Pogacar sprinting for these seconds?

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Why is Pogacar sprinting for these seconds?

Interval training

 

[Netserk]

What is the point of Swift(?) sprinting? He's taking 1" from Thomas.

 

[AnotherArmChair]

FFS comms..>Arensman went to ensure Pog didnt get 3

 

[tobydawq]

The teams should really hire a mathematician.

All Swift did there was taking a second away from Thomas.

 

[dgodave]

Why is Pogacar sprinting for these seconds?

Because they are there.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Pogacar should just save his energy for the end and maybe try something

 

[Unterlenkerfahrend]

Pog so washed. Gets beaten by Ineos scrubs every other stage these days.

 

[tobydawq]

Why is Pogacar sprinting for these seconds?

Because he is riding for GC.

 

[AnotherArmChair]

FFS it was Swift ..comms !!!

 

[Rob5091]

Pogi the Pink gets two bonus seconds! Bored maybe?

 

[Berniece]

Because he is riding for GC.

Waste of energy when you are so much better than the others

Not much marginal gains for Ineos with that

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Abandon Simon Carr

 

[AmRacer]

Slow Sunday ride

 

[Samamba]

Carr DNF...

He's such a weird rider.

Or did he crash?

 

[tobydawq]

Waste of energy when you are so much better than the others

Yes, now he will lose the Tour because of that effort.

 

[Unterlenkerfahrend]

I think Ineos anticipated more teams to go for the Bonus seconds and didn't think that Thomas would get a chance hence they wanted to take as many away as possible with Swift.

Somebody needs to tell the Eurosport commentators there were no ciclamino points at that sprint. And I am not even getting paid for it.
