It's not that I mind it - at all - but why the f... is Pedersen trying to hit the break on this stage?

Surely the points jersey is pretty much secure already?

You can't just let 50 guys go, but everyone looks completely spent after yesterday, like they're going at slow motion up the shallow rise.

Ayuso will DNF soon. Lack of help the team

Both him and Del Toro at the back of the peloton.

Might just be to avoid all the crazyness of the early break getting established, but it's certainly not a normal tactic for GC riders, unless you are called Yates ;)

And now Lidl is pulling, after Pedersen constantly trying to hit the break - they could have just pulled from the start - and then he could use the sprint to get in the break - first time I think Lidl are being dumb this Giro :rolleyes:
