Giro d'Italia Giro d‘Italia 2025 Stage 7, Castel di Sangro-Tagliacozzo, 168k

it's more likely they go fast now because they want their flat doms to survive the climb, I think. The gap should go up then, unless someone else takes over.

UAE should just attack the climb with Vine since the break is still close.

Hope S Yates does well today.

Such a pretty scenery today

Nothing but business today for Bora

First time we've seen them bossing it at the front. They're not going hard but at least this way the whole peloton doesn't soft pedal the climb.

 

[Samamba]

They might have 5 minutes by the time they are at the top. I'm still not sure if Bora really cares about the stage. I think they just want to keep their doms till they over the top of this one and then they'll see how far they are behind.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Maybe they weren't fibbing about not caring about the stage, go on Denz give them 10 minutes.

 

[Sciatic]

Van Aert and Pedersen chillin' at the back

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Dang, those two Bora riders pulling look more like rowers

WTF!! Shish Kebab?

 

[RedheadDane]

What was that?
I mean... shish kebab... but why the lengthy footage?

 

[SafeBet]

We've been in Abruzzo like 10 times in the last 10 years and you've yet to understand that's arrosticini not shees kebab...

And it wasn't even in the proper feed zone

many apologies, but I haven't seen it before -- I am glad to get the proper education. Also will remember that it I ever get there!

In my defence, we don't usually get those lingering shots of random food.
Also, I have the sound on the stage in Hongrie, because they're closer to the finish.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Looks a bit wet/unsafe in my view, stop the count, cancel the entire 3 week race and take GC times as they are out on the road.

safebet supplied the correct answer. But it looked like the camera had two skewers of meat sticking out in front of them--and they kept the camera on it for 10 seconds so it was hard to miss! But confusing for those of us ignorant of Abruzzo cuisine

Abruzzo is renowned in Italy for arrosticini, lamb skewers which are normally cooked on a specific grill.
Whenever the Giro passes through this region you'll see riders, team cars and media being offered this delicacy, especially in the mountains.
Also, Abruzzo is stunning and you should all visit in case you travel to Italy. It's very likely the least touristic region in the whole country, it's cheap and it's wild.
