Giro d'Italia Giro d'Italia 2024 Stage 17: Selva di Val Gardena/Wolkenstein in Gröden – Passo Brocon, 159.0k

[Samamba]

This Alaphilippe is still so good.

 

[Faserr]

Pogi is marking Steinhauser

 

[ppanther92]

Rather Pellizzari, no? Had the inside.

 

[Squire]

This Alaphilippe is still so good.

Jan Hirt has ominous plans today.

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Ok, so Pogačar is just controlling the break formation on the descent.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Odd positioning from Pogacar this stage, looking like a pro conti rider trying to hoover up residual KOM points

 

[Netserk]

~18 riders in the peloton.

 

[Brullnux]

Martinez doesn’t look great today.

Ineos understandably doing nothing about it

It's safer to be in front if you don't have a teammate around

 

[Squire]

~18 riders in the peloton.

Martinez, Piganzoli and Pozzovivo seem to be in a group that chilled out a bit over the top, and now find themselves a bit dropped.

Rather Pellizzari, no? Had the inside.

Yep, Pellizzari won the Cima Coppi.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Yesterday seems to have finished a lot of people, unfortunately there is a lot of downhill/flat coming so group will swell

 

[Netserk]

Pellizzari won Cima Coppi.

More him chasing Steinhauser moves, I think Majka is still there but he was slipping last update

 

[Netserk]

118 - Pellizzari
95 - Quintana
91 - Scaroni
78 - Geschke

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Incredible descent, it just goes on and on and on...

 

[Tim Cahill]

'Julie and Alan Philippe'

 

[Salvarani]

Incredible descent, it just goes on and on and on...

My heart does too

What's up with Pogacar and Steinhauser? Pog positively mentioned him quite a few time after the stage on Sunday, seemed to have his attack in high regards. No he's marking him as if he is a GC threat, any context?

On the ascent, I don't think he marked anyone in particular, but made sure a group wouldn't go clear and that the tempo would stay high and steady.

You have to pick your fights wisely. Pogacar picked Steinhauser.

118 - Pellizzari
95 - Quintana
91 - Scaroni
78 - Geschke

Pellizzari was at 56 before the stage, so should be 106 now?

 

[Slavique Nuke]

What group is Groves in?

 

[Samamba]

118 - Pellizzari
95 - Quintana
91 - Scaroni
78 - Geschke

Someone had Movistar finally looked at the UCI ranking and realized a top 3 in KOM classification gives a good amount of points. Also reason why Scaroni and Geschke have been fighting for it.

 

[Netserk]

Pellizzari was at 56 before the stage, so should be 106 now?

Ah, I went with firstcycling. But 56 on the official site.
