Given that you've at times said you hoped all the world's accidents (or almost) would befall Masnada because you were so annoyed by ilmaestro's hyping him up, this behaviour seems so odd to me.
He is in his best ever position in a GT. Masnada hype it is not.

Not all GC riders.

The top 10 dream is still alive.
 
The whining is kind of over the top, but to be fair, I'd be complaining too if my favorite riders had gotten caught up in the crash, but only one (Bernal) did. The others 1) crashed out early (Landa), 2) made it in the front group (Carapaz, Pidders), 3) training in Spain (Pogi) and 4) riding a MTB (VdP).
I do feel for Roglic and Ayuso, but I think this presages a very aggressive 3rd week.

A tribute to Tudor, who neutralized the first break and allowed this one to happen, supposedly because they were weak.

Tudor hasn't been involved in any of these breaks.

The GTs will miss teams like Corratec and Kern Pharma, given the attitude of Tudor and Q36.5.

Now it's Tudors fault some riders crash cause they caught a break 3 hours before. What are these takes man.

im ok with Roglic losing time, now he has to be really aggressive. i'm mostly annoyed that Ciccone was taken out by a stupid stage design. it's one thing to make a boring flat stage but it's another to make them go over a narrow, twisty cobbled road in the finale for no reason. and twice!

Bad luck for a lot of the GC riders, especially Tiberi who was looking really good. And lucky for some GC riders like Del Toro and Simon Yates. With a commanding lead now by Del Toro, it's hard to see him losing this race. And hard to see Roglic winning it with him being 2:30 back now, and no timetrials left. Ayuso is in no mas land, the only way he wins is if Del Torro really falters.

The comment was hardly aimed at just today.
Almost all Gee hype has been justified and in proportion to his situation. If you honestly thought that he was in contention for the final podium, I don't think you'd find it annoying.

In your head, yes. Not in reality.

Which also probably goes for Masnada and ilmaestro.

Which is why I find it much more hypocritical than annoying.

They want to promote Nova Gorica / Gorica. There are decend climbs just 15km out and real montains just 50 or so. But they went for flat state border line cycling. Meh.

So if he finishes in the top-5, you will say that you were wrong?
