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

[Jagartrott]

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

It is the only jersey you have ever seen?

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

Honouring the giro
by not being pink.
Kudos, Cue ducks.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

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

It's working out quite well for them though, given how Caicedo just flew away from Visconti. It's a ducking miracle.

Mitchelton made a tactical mistake when Yates dropped back - They should have dropped Hamilton back and left Haig in the front group as he could ride a decent GC - Give Yates a few more stages then withdraw him and reset him for the Vuelta.

 

[huangho]

A very entertaining GC so far... Almeida is going to be a hard nut to be cracked...

 

[richwallone]

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

Luckily, it's not up to them to mess with it

Does anyone know where I can watch the final 15-20kms? Trying to stay spoiler-free after just coming back from work. Please quote this comment if you have an answer

 

[SKSemtex]

I just wanted to re-watch.

No. Thomas will not be in pink in Mont ETNA

 

[Logic-is-your-friend]

So Vanhoucke the best out of the peloton. Great ride. Logic will be happy I suppose.

Especially since he 's had a difficult time the past two years, yes. I'm happy for him. I'm not just talking about the death of Bjorg, but of his health issues which took a while to recover from.
Haven't seen the stage. Before the Giro started, i thought he could do a top 15 in GC if he went for that. Not sure if he's going for stages or for GC though.

I get the feeling that Thomas and Yates have won the only grand tours they will win.

 

[Velolover2]

I feel sorry for Thomas but the race is going to be a lot more entertaining.

Etna is a beautiful climb.

Looked like they could have buried him but Nibali and Fuglsang were not willing to work together. The chasing groups made up a lot of ground on the last few meters. Kruijswijk nearly caught them.

 

[movingtarget]

Good result for Kelderman. Yates and Thomas out of contention already. Nibali voodoo working well.

 

[Logic-is-your-friend]

The winner of Tour de l'Avenir 16 minutes down today.

 

[Bolder]

I feel bad for Thomas. I didn't think he'd necessarily win but I think he was in really good shape to contend.
Yates? I have no idea.
The GC remains wide open after the first MTF. That's great!

 

[Pantani_lives]

This could turn into a Nibali-Kruijswijk rematch, with Fuglsang as the third contender.

Did someone say that in one of those videos? And if yes which one? I only get a search result when clicking on that link

 

[TomLPC]

Could end up seeing the three muppets Froome, Thomas and Bernal starting a GT together after all.

No dominant teams here, good stuff, ripe ground for a randomer totally fluking one from a breakaway.

[HelloDolly]

The race might be wide open but the top 10 looks pretty set to me already ..took over half the Tour to get to this point. Giro gets to the sharp end very quickly ...no hanging around

 

[Devil's Elbow]

So is this a reprisal of the 2010 Giro, 2011 Vuelta, or even weirder?

 

[movingtarget]

This could turn into a Nibali-Kruijswijk rematch, with Fuglsang as the third contender.

Maybe but I wouldn't rule out Kelderman just yet. He can do good time trials. Not sure why Yates dropped so much.

 

[Velolover2]

Birdsong is more explosive than Nibali, Majka, Pozzovivo and Kruijswijk but doesn't have the team to take bonus seconds.

If anything, there are 3 hilly stages (10, 12, 16) where he could make his trademark hill attack and gain a lot of seconds.
