Giro d'Italia Giro d'Italia 2025 stage 20: Verrès – Sestrière, 205 km

[dazaau]

WTF is Carapaz doing?

He's giving up 2nd by refusing to pull

Both gone mad.

 

[Red Rick]

Gravel and absurdly slow slow motions. Can't tell if Giro d'Italia or Roland Garros

 

[Froome]

Perfect tatic now with WVA.

 

[Red Rick]

The classic 'don't pull as to set precedent for future races', during a final stage Giro climb, love it.

Wait until I get to complicated weather physics to explain why the high W/kg are totally normal on a given day

 

[Sciatic]

Why? Let Yates kill himself on Finestre and take back time on Sestriere? Makes perfect sense. Use the advantage. He only needs to take back a bit more than 20 seconds.

I don't see how that fits with the difficulty of this stage.

 

[Eddy Evenepoel]

Del Idiot stopped riding AGAIN

Its great that hes so young that we can talk about how stupid he was gifting this Giro away for 15 years!

WTF is Carapaz doing?

He's giving up 2nd by refusing to pull

It's clear that he wanted the 1st and was ready to give up the 2nd place. It's Del Toro that has been giving up on the 1st place.

 

[Heston]

Its up to Del Toro to pull. Not Carapaz.

 

[pelotonIQ]

Hes clearly waiting for his team to catch back.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Carapaz ain't the sharpest tactically, but Del Toro lost all oxygen flowing to the brain.

Things looking nice for Vingegaard in the summer. It will be a superb team working for a healthy Vingegaard.

Derek Gee will pull for him, too?

 

[Boehmand]

He might be guessing del Toro is dead an he'll take second from him. They don't seem to have much left in them, Carapaz and del Toro.

Only thing that makes sense, because if they worked together he might still retain 2nd and Del Toro pink.

This just seems like giving up 2nd out of spite.

 

[Red Rick]

If only Del Toro had Juan domestique with him now

 

[AnotherArmChair]

I suppose 2nd or 3rd makes no difference to Carapaz

But its not over yet

 

[Jack_89]

There are 10kms at 2-3-4% I really don't see how del Toro and carapaz can recover time

 

[Cycling111]

I can’t believe UAE and EF actually let Wout in the break and gave him a 10 min head start AND then just let Yates ride away. Well deserved to lose.

UAE without Pogacar would be a circus.

Yates was in bad shape at San Pellegrino, but they decided to wait for Ayuso, who admitted that he was very bad that week.

They didn't know how to advise Del Toro today. He's too inexperienced, I can't blame him; it's the directors' fault.

 

[AlfaLum]

Stupid gamble by Del Toro and will leave the giro as a result of it.

 

[iBanesto]

The Del Torro-Carapaz comedy hour.

 

[Eddy Evenepoel]

Hes clearly waiting for his team to catch back.

But they are like 2 minutes behind??

 

[Heston]

Hes clearly waiting for his team to catch back.

Gee is 3 minutes behind Yates and UAE's helpers are further behind.

 

[Red Rick]

2 Eurosport ad breaks in 5 minutes, classic.

 

[Fantastico]

Hes clearly waiting for his team to catch back.

They are at least 1:30 minutes back. Makes no sense
