Giro d'Italia 2020, Stage 5: Mileto – Camigliatello Silano 225 km

[MrTea1976]

De Gendt, Kangert, Haig and Yates. EF to take pink. A bold prediction. The Giro is always the best Grand Tour.

Not last year.

This is just a provocatively weak grammar game

¿Qué?

yeah yeah, I know...

You're killing hyperboles in every topic though.

Somebody has to preserve the voice of reason when the world descends into chaos and turmoil.

Visconti FTW. Stage 3 showed he's in decent shape and this much longer stage is probably in his favour

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Will this stage be broadcasted live from the start? It could turn out as one of the best stages to watch from the beginning, expecting a huge fight to get in this break. A massive break and mayhem from the gun is a definite possibility.

I think it will - RaiSport have woken up early - Cunego is already on the mike awaiting live pictures.
Let's see.

Ignore my previous post. What I want to respond to this is:

Not every topic.

 

[SafeBet]

11 degrees at the finish right now.
There could be rain later in the afternoon.

 

[TourOfSardinia]

The stage has begun 16km
now RaiSport has pics

at least from the motos

 

[SafeBet]

Almost 30 kms done, no break yet.

 

[Salvarani]

I dont know if much will happen today, right now. Think it is for the break.

Last climb is long, but not many steep parts. Weather might play a big role though if it starts raining and gets cold. Some crashes might happen too, if that is the case.

 

[SafeBet]

De Gendt and Sagan on the attack, 4 more riders trying to bridge.

 

[Salvarani]

Sagan want the sprint points

Breaking news

Sagan De Gent, + MS, +BM, +Sunweb +ING

 

[DJ Sprtsch]

If the PCS ticker is right the average speed the first 40 minutes has been 55km/h

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Scinto just have to give him a bottle at the right moment this time. Otherwise he'll be ducked again.

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Now caught

 

[SafeBet]

Sagan, De Gendt, Narvaez, Howson, Tratnik and Denz have a small gap.

 

[SafeBet]

I think Castroviejo tried to get in the breakaway but DQS chased so it's Gruppo Compatto again.

 

[damian13ster]

Had a small gap. Caught. Pace seems really high

Found the hyperbole

Gotcha

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Ineos trying something on the descent

Top Ganna Tratnik Puccio + ?

 

[SafeBet]

Ganna, Puccio, Holmes, Tratnik now with a gap.

That's what Tony Martin is for.
