Re: Re:

Wait, Pozzo, Dennis, MAL, Froome all were caught out in that split!?

I think Pozzovivo made the front group, but not sure, it all went bonkers for a while.

They are all back safely now...but yes according to commentators only Yates and Dumo made the first GC split.

No. Pretty sure i saw him in the Froome group.

Pozzovivo was definitely in the Yates group

Yes, I rewound the footage on my tv box and Pozzo was definitely in the Yates group with Dumoulin.

[Laplaz]

Formolo is in the break so Lotto NL will soon start pulling for the 10th place in GC of G. Bennett

No Dumo was always in the Pink group.

BTW Aru took a huge pull in the bring back! Boy has good legs?????

Judging by this and yesterday’s TT, UAE are going to be bonkers over these last few days.

I totally lost track of where everyone was.

I know they're in Italy, though...

Things haven't exactly settled down yet at least.

 

[MartinGT]

I'm shattered just watching this!

 

[staubsauger]

This is everything but certainly not the easy day off one would've expected prior to 2 1/2 rough mountain stages!

 

[TourOfSardinia]

MS burning their matches early

 

[Robert5091]

It seems half the peloton wants to be in the break.

The Fonz' is on the attack! Watch out!

Re:

I know it is madness . Finally I had to tear myself away to put my eye drops in 1.5 hours late!

 

[staubsauger]

Leclercq just stated that this in fact is the last day where non-specialists (climbers or sprinters) can go for a stage win so half the peleton indeed wants to get away of course.

He said that as if half the peleton going completely loco on a transition stage is a totally normal thing.

Re:

Last opportunity for many riders to win a stage.

 

[Carols]

Still no break, it is madness...I love it!

To be fair, in this Giro absurd seems to be the new normal.

Yes, and all of the PCT teams, Ag2r, DDD, Katusha, Cannondale, Trek and UAE still need a win.

[Hugo Koblet]

Froome to attack on the next climb.
