Or they finish exactly the same time....What's the over-under on the margin? Hart by 30 seconds?

I don't think he'll abandon in the middle of the stageTomorrow TGH will do a Dennis.
Sunweb didn't blow it. Kelderman blew it.Congratulations to Tao on the Giro win.
Sunweb blew it. I guess they couldn't do anything about it because of Rohan Dennis.
All that's missing is a breakout 17th place for a Kenyan rider.
That's not a problem. Hindley will do a Ganna.Tomorrow TGH will do a Dennis.
TGH has more stage victories IIRCTheoretically who would hold the tie breaker if they finished exactly the same time?
Yes, anybody but The Sardine.Anybody but not Wilco Please!
Stomach issues for ca 3-4 days.Please note that this will be the first time Majka will not finish in the top-10 of the Giro, in fact; it will be the first time he'll not finish 5th, 6th, or 7th.
I have also seen Tao in previous races and thought he could be a future GC guy. All the talk about weak field just because its not the usual riders on the top of the list is stupid. Look at Nibali, he has said he has some of his best numbers ever, cant even compete. The new generation is here, and the older guys dont seem to come back.It's a bit like Andy Schleck vs. Cadel Evans. You can see the "surprise" coming from miles.
Ineos wins another GT. Last year after the Tour of the Alps I predicted that Hart would be their next British Tour winner - much to the ridicule of this forum. Well, the Tour is still a long stretch, but he has a 99% chance to clinch this weird Giro. I think he'll beat Hindley by about half minute. Sunweb with two leaders was bound to finish second and third.
That would be interesting, however unlikely it is. Lets say Kelderman is doing one of his best TTs, and Tao have a technical, or his wheel slips in a corner, suddenly Kelderman is on top again. Tao will need to go full gas anyway to beat Jay, anything can happen...Since I don't really have any emotional invest remaining in this gc with the bird and the shark out of contention, I would love it if Wilco overturned the deficit to the two youngsters to regain pink (for the drama and forum reaction). Sure, it's barely a 1% chance, but if Hindley was 0.1% chance pre race to win, then in 2020, why not?
