Giro d'Italia Giro d'Italia 2025 Stage 21: Roma – Roma, 143 km

[Libertine Seguros]

Credit to Orluís Aular for somehow finding a way to be boxed in three different ways in the run-in. In the finest tradition of Abarcá sprinters.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Pedersen too tired after that flashy tv-pull yesterday

 

[awavey]

Guessing the camera foreshortened the gap as that looked very close to be called a perfect sprint by Kooij, though I guess if you win it, it's always perfect no matter how close. 😀

Was that his wife or his sister in law?

Plugge the pink panther.

Wish RAI wouldn't switch so quickly to Processo alla Tappa after the stage finish--would rather keep seeing of riders gathering in the finish area than than the faces of the panel.

Richard Plugge here to claim all the credit and then tell us all about how this shows how cycling is failing and what we need is more city centre criteriums with people paying big money to eat popcorn and drink crappy lager while he pockets the winnings and race organisers shoulder all the responsibility for any costs, while all the other team owners prostrate themselves in front of him for the right to participate as mere serfs to his glorious charges in their circus.

All praise the cartel.

Affini eyes so blue!

Insane pull by the Drentsche Sportsman of the year Edo Affini.

looks very girly. Is it the jersey making him look so tiny for a sprinter?

Cool distribution for the race..Visma, Trek some serious good results, UAE with the semi Cinderella story. Tudor in front more than I expected.Astana with some good moments.. Yates really deserving winner!!

 

[Carols]

Visma 3 stages and the Pink. They ruled. Sorry to see the last pedal stroke.
Lord I can't stand this Breakaway show.

I like it, but I wish they wouldn't switch to the studio team so quickly after the finish. I like seeing all the post-race stuff, interviews etc. I swear they used to do that.

For sure. I'd rather see the riders gather at the finish line live than this lot babbling on and on.

*** cyclinguptodate*** does have prize list breakdown.. So you see what Yates will pocket for his efforts.. Overall cake involved is 1.6 million

 

[Heston]

Visma really made a comeback in this race. Until Wout's win in Siena it looked like a very mediocre grand tour for them. Now they got it all.

 

[noob]

Yates suits the pink

 

[Sciatic]

WHOA! Just saw (in replay) that before the start Pope Leo came out to stand with the jersey wearers and bless the race! You all know he's a sports fan, going back to his Chicago and Villanova days. But did you know he's a classmate of mine?

Also, cool to see Nairo spending a moment with him.
