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

[Extinction]

Pog could have won the stage if he attacked from 3 km out and actually tried.

 

[Tricycle Rider]

*** I have good legs - Georg Steinhauser

 

[Tim Cahill]

I don't know if they're related by blood but he does have the slightly freckled complexion and hollowish eyes than Jan had.

 

[wheresmybrakes]

Is it something about cyclists and swearing on live TV, they just don't give a f**ck. LMAO

 

[Potomac]

Steinhauser seemed like a nice guy in the interview.

 

[Didinho]

So Bahrein will ride the next mountain stage.

 

[tobydawq]

Pogi looks to be on his knees. He will be pack fodder at the Tour.

 

[Brullnux]

Absolute joke of a ride from Thomas, hugely disrespectful to Arensman. If I were Arensman I'd be fuming and doing everything I can to leave Ineos. What an awful team.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

I don't know if they're related by blood but he does have the slightly freckled complexion and hollowish eyes than Jan had.

If they share blood, it's a story belonging in the clinic.

 

[Gigs_98]

Really nice interview. Steinhauser seems like a very likable guy.

 

[AnotherArmChair]

He has the Ulrich shaped face

 

[SafeBet]

Tiberi once again gaining time on Arensman in the fight for the white jersey.

Gained even more time on O'Connor, so a 4th place in GC now looks possible.

 

[Mayomaniac]

I don't know if they're related by blood but he does have the slightly freckled complexion and hollowish eyes than Jan had.

Not blood related, Jan was married to his aunt.

 

[movingtarget]

Great win by Steinhauser. Pogacar in the final km looks about as relaxed as any GC leader could look. O'Connor leaking more time but doing the right thing riding his own race. Top five will be his best result in this race seemingly, based on the past few stages.

 

[Mayomaniac]

Today Ineos actually wasted Arensman a bit.

 

[AnotherArmChair]

Today Ineos actually wasted Arensman a bit.

I am sure his Dad will be on X having a go

 

[topcat]

Gained even more time on O'Connor, so a 4th place in GC now looks possible.

Am I the only one thinking Thomas is going to blow up and Tiberi will be on the podium?

 

[pihi42]

No point in this Pog attack
Should save his ammo for the TdF

He has the "generate ammo" perk.

 

[Didinho]

Romain felt good so we wanted to put pressure on the other top 10 GC guys. He’s better when the stage is hard.
- Leemrijze

There you have it.

 

[AmRacer]

Don't worry, it was just a Sunday ride.

 

[Brullnux]

Am I the only one thinking Thomas is going to blow up and Tiberi will be on the podium?

The danger with this is that the stronger ineos rider might be allowed off his leash

 

[Krzysztof_O]

Congrats to Steinhauser on a great win! So he succeeded this time, strong performance. The peleton was not willing to chase until last few km.

Ineos did work on the last climb...to set up Martinez attack, lol. G. and his attacking style! It all ended up with a brainless attack by maglia rosa. Why, Teddy, why?

 

[Oldermanish]

Absolute joke of a ride from Thomas, hugely disrespectful to Arensman. If I were Arensman I'd be fuming and doing everything I can to leave Ineos. What an awful team.

G has been a grumpy dude since the beginning; when he knew he maybe, might be, wants to be....the best second place ever?

 

[yaf]

Pog's tactics make no sense. Why attack if you are trying to have an easy day, and why not win the stage if you aren't?

He didn't make any tactic he just changed his zone

 

[Kazistuta]

He was totally dominant, utter nonsense.
He rides the way his body allows him to. he's 38.

But has he ever ridden differently?
