Giro d'Italia 2020, Stage 3: Enna – Etna 150 km

[gregrowlerson]

I mean it's difficult to say with Thomas. It's completely ridiculous how heavily favored Thomas was by the bookies pre race, but this performance was most likely caused by a crash. Now that crash might have been his fault but we still don't know how Thomas was matched compared to the others in terms of pure strength.

Well, he looked strong in T-A.

But then again, Yates looked even stronger!

Why Almeida if they are level on time ?

Nibali man

If I’m Simon Yates I’d be wrapping myself in bubble wrap and making sure there’s padding at the bottom of every ravine

Might not be necessary.

Steven K only losing a few seconds there is the most significant development there sans the obvious. If grand tours were 4 weeks long he’d win every one.

Sunweb looking good at the Giro too

all this talk of what Evenpol and co would have done here ...but Carapaz would have won by about 10mins at least

As long as they're not relying on Matthews for stage wins they should do well here

Bye Bye Brittains Day

Where did Remco finish today?




Wait... am I sticking up for the Brits??? What next???

He is ahead by like 0.3 seconds, supposedly.

If 2 riders are tied on time they look at the hundredths from the TT.

After years of watching the Tour this is the first Giro I am watching... and boy have I already been blown away. That stage was way more entertaining than almost any Tour stage I've seen.

 

[broppo]

so there is no team now that can control the race, this giro will be a breakaway fest!

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Caicedo to sign with Ineos I. 5... 4... 3... 2...

Vaughters been spotted outside a bank yet?

 

[Broccolidwarf]

Does the intermediate sprints give bonus seconds at the Giro?

If so, we might get a very interesting battle between DQ and EF tomorrow.

Giro always kicks the Tour to the curb... It's not even in the same league... Much more entertaining

Evan breakaways must be controlled. This Giro will be epic.

Now I understand what they mean by "Hard Brexit".

EF is getting some "mileage" out of their new jerseys... That damn duck... I can't ever unsee it

 

[HelloDolly]

Tour was very fast and riders seemed on another level

But Giro just has drama written all over it ..juts going to show its not climbing speed that makes a race

 

[jnormanroach]

Is that a plush water bottle being given to Caicedo on the podium?

 

[SarahtheDane]

I

It's the best jersey I can remember ever seeing.

 

[Escarabajo]

So Yates arrived with Nibali at the end? not sure what the fuss is about!

Cool. I assumed it would be stage wins

 

[TourOfSardinia]

So Yates arrived with Nibali at the end? not sure what the fuss is about!

which Nibali?

 

[Carrick-On-Seine]

EF is getting some "mileage" out of their new jerseys... That damn duck... I can't ever unsee it

I wonder what glorious mess they are going to make of the blue jersey.
