Giro d'Italia Giro d‘Italia 2024, Stage 4 Acqui Terme-Andora, 190 km

[Samamba]

Big split with Martinez caught behind, wouldn't think they would pace due to it but it was already naturally high so might be difficult to stitch back up.

Martinez is in first group?

Anyways gaps aren't that big, will normally come back together

Once again Ineos could just take advantage of this but they really don‘t give a ***.

 

[Samamba]

O Connor group is still behind.

here's a picture from today. Fairly narrow then, but should hopefully be okay

edit: 2nd pic added. Looks dangerous

Thanks for the photos! It is narrow so how so many sprint teams are going to get through is a good question. If they have not done the asphalt wel on the bit of the roundabout they'ce covered over, then guys could go flying.

The same could happen if a cow suddenly appeared on the road.

Did ES sack that Ashley? Not seen him for a while

Apparently there's a GOAT somewhere in the peloton so who knows!

 

[RedheadDane]

Oh, great. So according to Anders Mielke the new asphalt is still kinda sticky.

I haven't been watching yet, so can anyone calm @Skijumper Roglic fan down by confirming that Girmay's eyes are alright after the crashes?

Isn't the british woman the asphalt expert on the ES?

He hasn‘t been on here for three months, so we can‘t calm him down.

He always talks up everything that's remotely irregular.

He even said it was bakingly hot, while clad in a black long-sleeved jacket.

For the record, I also think the descent so close to the finish is super super stupid.

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Fantastic heli shots of the coastline now.

Stage hunter Ben O'Connor is dropped. A possibly spicy finish. Not too bad but I hope for more action later.

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Wait OConner is dropped?

How the heck did he crash?

She doesn't speak Danish, afaik.

They could all just wait 10km before riding like madman.

 

[QueenStagiaire]

The break is really strong today.

 

[search]
