I love Julian, but when you lost by less then a bike length to another fast finisher, you've got to wonder whether trying to drive a hopeless move with van poppel and gaviria clear before the first climb was a good idea.

Unfortunately Ala was robbed of the stage win. But as the giro is just training for the inevitable Olympics-Wcrr double (the real double), we can all be happy for him. Getting better, stronger and wilder-one day at a time.

Lady commentator in the studio finally wearing some sensible shoes
Spanish language broadcast has a blonde w a sweater, white shirt and black bra for some reason and a strawberry red hair woman named Laura something and the other girl Alberto Contador!!
The female broadcaster in Spanish is excellent and she doesn't get all foamed up yelling about anything

The chick from English Eurosport is terrible. And by that I mean annoying.

Ineos tactics: weaken pogacar by riding hard each stage so that we have a chance to podium or even win the tour 😜😅

I think her and Mielke are about equally bad. I don't find them too annoying, but they usually add nothing of interest at all.

edit: thought the discussion was about Walker. I don't have Orla an German Eurosport.
