Giro d'Italia Giro D'Italia 2025 Stage 9: Gubbio – Siena (181km)

[Libertine Seguros]

I am almost as shocked at Roglič crashing on this stage as I was when it was revealed that the newly-elected Pope was, in fact, a Catholic.

 

[Tim Cahill]

They had no plan of attacking until Roglic fell lets face it

Free Del Toro!!

 

[Salvarani]

Go Toro, GOOO

 

[Boehmand]

LOL - Pedersen is riding like a mad man to make it to the Roglic group - he's not done yet

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Roglic looked fine despite being down, so if this is his traditional crash he'll be fine.

Yeah, he's on the move now

Cowardly racing imo. Attacking after a guy crashes

 

[Salvarani]

The race is on

 

[Tim Cahill]

Del Toro attacking Ayuso, hilarious scenes, THROW THE EARPIECE OUT KID

 

[Peyroteo94]

C'mon Ineos!! Never thought saying this 10 years ago

 

[red_flanders]

Roglic just wanted to ride with his team...

 

[Bertram Wooster]

Hamilton was the first to crash.

 

[Unterlenkerfahrend]

Ludicrous motor drafting this Giro.

 

[Red Rick]

Classic G1 getting motopaced like crazy

I wouldn't mind tbh but it felt like Del Toro attacked as a direct result of the crash rather than in spite of it, that surely wasn't the plan.

Bad Form to attack the Maglia Ro… oh wait

 

[ppanther92]

Sean Kelly is annoying. Why wouldnt this belong in a GT?

That's exactly what he did imo.

The epic 2010 stage was precipitated when Vincenzo Nibali crashed, and left Vino and Evans at the front with two stage-hunting Milram riders (Frohlinger and Gerdemann if I remember rightly). It was when those two riders started pushing things on and Vino and Evans decided against waiting on Liquigas who also had Basso in the group that the carnage that we all remember so fondly started.

 

[Netserk]

The crash happened the most obvious place. Reportedly, it was the same when it was introduced in Strade this year.

 

[Miha81]

If they get rewarded for attacking while competition is down.... they had no plan to attack prior to that.

 

[Tricycle Rider]

I for one love the excitement of random riders crashing out GC favorites. It really ads excitement to the race.

It's a bit demolition derby, isn't it?

 

[Samamba]

Insane Ineos tactics. Letting your own teammate crashing to create a split with all your relevant riders in front.

 

[Boehmand]

LOL - Pedersen is riding like a mad man to make it to the Roglic group - he's not done yet

And there he is, just made the tail end of the group now

 

[Salvarani]

This is racing!

Awesome
