Gonna be interesting to see if UAE can keep that big group on a leach (if they still want to at least)

Even if they gain a minute on the next climb, the terrain is very good for the UAE train afterwards.Gonna be interesting to see if UAE can keep that big group on a leach (if they still want to at least)
If the group works well it's still gonna be hard for them. They also cannot gain that much time on the final climb with only Großschartner and Majka, so Pogacar might have to attack significantly earlier. Just not sure if this is still the scenario in which UAE should be all in on the stage win.Even if they gain a minute on the next climb, the terrain is very good for the UAE train afterwards.
ItalyPink smoke and a dog ...what kind of hell is this
I think putting Majka in break and suckwheel deterrent duty would have been much smarterIf the group works well it's still gonna be hard for them.

No, landslide.I'm watching without sound: was that huge rock left in the road as a protest?
There is still time to catch the break and with Oliveira coming back, the rest of the team will be a bit fresher.
