Giro d'Italia Giro d'Italia 2025, stage 1: Durrës - Tirana (160.0k)

Not Landa
Why do these accidents always happen to the most likable GC guys. I am sad.

First time i've seen you openly state your dislike for Pogacar.

 

[Peyroteo94]

Kinda feel sorry for Wout.

Are there any news on Landa?

It seems a broken collarbone

Kinda feel sorry for Wout.

Are there any news on Landa?

That would be very quick news

 

[Sciatic]

Wout got himself boxed in a bit and couldn't come around soon enough. Surprising gaps for the first stage!

 

[Ilmaestro99]

absolutely *** worst sport in the world

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Wout could take pink in the TT tomorrow.

 

[fenns]

It's strange that they haven't found a better way of covering a finish other than the head-on - which is the worst angle to pick out the winner.

 

[Gigs_98]

Gee almost loses a minute, Arensman one and a half. With Landa crashing on top of that this stage had surprisingly big gc implications.

Man the Landa thing really stings.

 

[Samamba]

This is going to be such a points farming Giro it's insane. Astana already 6th and 9th.

 

[Red Rick]

Not sure what's funnier. Arensmania dying on day 1 yet again or Roglic trying to position himself, headbutting Van Aert's aura and still getting pushed back despite not getting within 30 cm of Van Aerts physical body.

 

[Ilmaestro99]

I just cant believe it man

 

[Jan the Man]

Mads no slouch in a TT

 

[Miha81]

That would be very quick news

Still hoping he is OK by some weird chance :/

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Pedersen went too early but I think still got it?

It was very close, I thought Wout might get it but Mads held on.

 

[titan31]

Gee and Arensman lose time. Wonder if anyone else has lost time on GC? Terrible for Landa too

 

[Boehmand]

Wout could take pink in the TT tomorrow.

Agreed.

Mads will fight for it, and he's a pretty good TTer when he has to be, but not WvA's level.

 

[Squire]

What a horrible start to the race. Possibly final slight chance of mythical Landa GT win ruined. Hope his injuries aren't really bad.

 

[Peyroteo94]

I just cant believe it man

We got it. Can you stop posting the same thing over and over in a span of 1 minute?

 

[Boehmand]

absolutely *** worst sport in the world

I support your public therapy session dude

 

[EddyMazzoleni]

Poor Landa.
Trek did an amazing job and Pedersen was able to finish it off

Unfortunately, I think the only way he could be okay was if he'd fallen into someone's garden.
And they had a trampoline there.

Not good. Seems worse than just a broken collarbone. DNF and probably DNS in the Tour too.

Just saw the video. All hope died as he really did not look good.

Congrats to Pedersen on the stage and the pink jersey. Lidl's tempo on the last climb was really solid, already indicating Mads' form. Still, it was disappointing that nobody even tried anything there: most of the guys seemingly gave up on their dream of the stage and the jersey (knowing that only a couple of guys had realistic chances in the finale). Crashes already struct and Landismo unfortunately seemed to be seriously hurt.
