Giro d'Italia Giro d'Italia 2025, stage 13: Rovigo – Vicenza, 180km

[Tricycle Rider]

Pink smoke coming from a church tower, that kind of local support I approve of. (Smoke bombs in riders' faces I do not.)

Someone please explain to me why the second KOM today is a Cat 4. Even for the Giro, that‘s outrageous

 

[Tim Cahill]

I prefer the black shorts, full pink is only appropriate in my view if it's the last day or you are some random domestique who managed to pick up the jersey unexpectedly and want to make the most of your big day.

Why would anyone not competing for the KOM care? We've seen harder climbs go uncategorised.

 

[Samamba]

About to be for the GC riders with this tempo on every hill

 

[Tim Cahill]

Jan Tratnik washed-watch: On the front with quite a good pace

Does that mean we'll get a new pope GC leader?

 

[Tim Cahill]

Ineos took 20s off the break positioning just to get into the descent

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Ineos descending fast, probably just to annoy people

 

[Tim Cahill]

Ayuso distanced a bit and having to close Turner on his own

 

[Didinho]

Making the race harder so Rivera has a better chance? Or just another descent.

 

[Samamba]

Ineos took 20s off the break positioning just to get into the descent

This really isn't just positioning

 

[Mayomaniac]

Ineos bringing the heat to make the Spanish frying pan crack!

Indeed, it must! (It was kind of reminiscent of the recent Conclave smoke, forgot to mention that. 😀)

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Launching Bernal

 

[Samamba]

Ineos going full

 

[Landeirovic]

Ayuso dropped

 

[Tim Cahill]

This really isn't just positioning

No I thought they were just doing their usual stunt at the start but it seems they're actually nuking it.

 

[Cycling111]

Ayuso in problems?

 

[Tim Cahill]

Ben Turner wtf

 

[Samamba]

Wtf am I watching. Yeah nice some entertaining but what is even the point.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Good stuff, lets go....

 

[Samamba]

Pedersen has passed like 50 riders, but is struggling now

 

[Netserk]

Egg on the face of Visma. Should have gone for the break.

 

[KOM]

Never thought id ever say this, but i love this new version of INEOS!!
