[Red Rick]

Visma already ready to pull for Van Aert 4th place?

Visma probably has the biggest chance to win the stage of any team, so it would make sense.

No way. Van Aert cannot sprint anymore and Koiij is not very likely to survive the climbs.

 

[Netserk]

I don't think Kooij is ready for the Albanian stages after his broken collarbone. And I expect Visma to ride hard on the climbs today.

 

[hayneplane]

Break not being given any slack on the rope at all.

Looks like all the bonus points will be hotly contested.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Visma pulling for Simon Yates.

 

[Tricycle Rider]

I know they can't wear them in the Giro but I miss EF's bright pink jerseys, with what they're wearing now I can't spot any of them.

 

[Hugo Koblet]

No way. Van Aert cannot sprint anymore and Koiij is not very likely to survive the climbs.

Actually, Pedersen might be a bigger favorite than Van Aert and Kooij combined. But I don't see any other team with a bigger chance than Visma has with those two.

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Nom nom, Tonelli stuffing his face with what might be some kind of a rice krispie, it's so rare to see a rider ingest something other than a gel...

Heh, with Max's multi-screen coverage one camera can be dedicated strictly to Rogla, looks like he's growing his hair out.

Pedersen hasn't been sprinting brilliantly this season either yet

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Happy Taco try-day to everyone!

 

[Netserk]

Visma wants the RedBull? Pedersen said before the stage that he preferred the break to take those bonus seconds, so it makes sense that Lidl-Trek no longer pulls.

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Pretty cool shot of some kids fishing under a bridge while the peloton is riding over it

 

[hayneplane]

TNT trying to ensure everyone uses the digital coverage by going to an ad break at 1km from the first intermediate sprint!

 

[Lui98]

Ayuso down

 

[QueenStagiaire]

First crash for Ayuso

 

[Didinho]

Ayuso crash.

Asterisk on Gee’s GC victory.

 

[Netserk]

Fausto moving up?

[Peyroteo94]

First crash for Ayuso

It was bad?

Fausto moving up?

@Ilmaestro99

Looks like the team is confident in scaroni today? Fausto sitting on the shoulder of the Visma train

 

[Divergence]

That Campag rear derailleur looks ridiculous....

 

[Netserk]

Looks like the team is confident in scaroni today? Fausto sitting on the shoulder of the Visma train

Watching the multiscreen feed for maximum Fausto time?

Is that allowed?

 

[Lui98]

It was bad?

They didn' t show the crash, but it looks like he didn' t suffer any injury

 

[Netserk]

Good battle for the GPM.
