Tomorrow is completely flat, if he can ride a bike he'll ride, even is he's suffering the whole day due to today's crash. It might be the only time he's having the maglia rosa, it would be crazy to DNS (unless there's an objectively good reason for that)
Good breakaway stages are basically the selection bias cheat of rating GTs anyway
So fun fact, Oscar Pereiro, whose last relevant (PCS-listed) win (the 2006 TdF) took place before Paul Seixas was born, is actually younger than Oscar Sevilla.
Arrieta what a warrior
He was looking down at his crank so often I thought he was having a mechanical
They also called Scaroni the stage winner when Silva won the 2nd stage. Why does Migels have a personal vendetta against Silva?
I doubt he has one and he wasn‘t the one who announced they would interview Eulalio, that was just an accident as well. But on the 2nd stage, after figuring out it was Silva he called him Giulium Giuliomero Thomas Silva, which are some terrible mispronunciations of Guillermo. But I doubt it‘s something personal, nobody‘s told Bengsch that the Ecuadorian rider isn‘t called Narvarez for years either. Migels has also somehow confused Ghebreigzabhier (or Ghebreizgabhier as he calls him although that may be correct, I‘m not an Eritrean pronunciation expert) with Sobrero multiple times this Giro in situations where Ghebreigzabhier had already worked hard and been dropped. I think he just likes to say his name.
I wasn't really serious about the vendetta. At least Migels mostly focuses on the race nowadays. I remember when I started watching cycling, he would ignore attacks of a GC rider just to finish his story about some race in Southern Mongolia in 1928.
Kench still up there in GC, abandoned by the team though after the FDJ boys just allowed Kulset, Eulálio and Maldini Cannavaro free minutes.
