Giro d'Italia 2023, stage 11: Camaiore - Tortona 219 km

Stage 11 seems to always be a major one. Hart in ambulance. Hope he's back soon.

 

[Tour de Berghem]

Nicolas Della Valle to win Giro

 

[DNP-Old]

Tao only crashed and potentially broke some bones because he can’t handle the pressure.

This is real sad for TGH

 

[Logic-is-your-friend]

Trek guy cuts in front of Rodriguez, who's front wheel clips and sends him against a house.

 

[dobrien]

This barely feels like a sport any longer. ffs.

 

[Barnacle Bill]

Man it's sad seeing TGH getting into that ambulance, such good form this year after a poor couple of seasons. Hope GT and Rog are ok, looked like Covi lost it and took the top 3 out unfortunately.

Hope the third week mountain showdown doesn't end up being between Cav and a random Bardiani rider.

Kamna vs Caruso for pink. Whoever stays on his bike wins.

Kämna will have to avoid Covid. Two of his teammates are out with it, so that‘s more trouble.

You don't say.

Covi(d) strikes again

 

[Red Rick]

UAE benefitting from their rider crashing

 

[wheresmybrakes]

I'm going over to Skybet and having a few quid on Cavendish to win the Giro.

João will win this bike race

Should be thrown out of the race immediately! Even if of course it wasn't intentional.

 

[Riek s]

What a disaster... at what point are we going to add multiple astrixes next to this Giro?

Hope Roglic and Thomas are fine.... its their Giro to loose now.

Covi(d) strikes again

i know i probably shouldn't laugh but... damn

 

[Filippo_3467]

Honestly the show will go on, but I don't know if the Giro should be finished.

Mostly of course because of the sickness and not crashes or weather, but that last week will take out a lot of riders it's a farce when 30 guys rolling into the last stage and Jonathan Lastra wins the Giro. We will see what the field will look like on saturday but if whats im expecting I don't know if thats still a competition...

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Rise up, fallen fighters
Rise and take your stance again

 

[gunara]

Just went home and not even tuned in yet, and what??? Tao's out? What a depressing Giro. Just rediscovered his GT form and I've just started to really liked him. Cycling is such an unhappy sport.

Who else is affected?

Damiano please stand.

Of course it should. What is all these comments....

 

[Elos Anjos]

People calling for the end of the Giro never thought about how unfair that would be for the remaining riders.

When it's not Covid, it's Covi who thins the field.

Hopefully he can rebuild that shape for the Vuelta a Espana!

It's not like Rodriguez is untouchable as a leader there, IF Tao rebuilds his shape in fall.

Ayuso needs to come into rhythm as well.

Plus Evenepoel.

Already looks like the Vuelta a Espana becomes what the Giro d'Italia normally is. The parcours is nice as well with Angliru + the Pyrenees!


Giro d'Italia is kinda canceled now.

Only Pinot winning at the 3 Merlons saves this!

Good point. In fact, UCI should make it a rule that when Evenepoel does not finish a race, that the race gets cancelled.
PS: Or win. If Evenepoel does not finish or win a race, the race gets cancelled or annulled.

When it's not Covid, it's Covi who thins the field.

Next one is someone named COV.
