Clears the way for team leaders Masnada and Van Wilder

The crash happened when they were blocking off the road to avoid other teams jumping away. Good lesson hopefully

Indeed, Evenepoel was at the very front of the peloton just before the crash:

 

[Netserk]

After the gap had extended to over 4 minutes, EF has started chasing with 1 rider. The entire Jumbo team is behind the EF rider.

 

[Unterlenkerfahrend]

He was trying to go in breakaway? Or 220km solo winning move?

I think he tried to bridge to the break, unclear what happened afterwards because the crash happened.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Not looking forward to the inevitable 20 pages of discussion on whether Evenepoel not winning was caused by his crash or not...

Live pictures from inside a tunnel IN ITALY!?!? What is happening??

 

[KZD]

Jumbo seems confident that they can break their three year monument drought with Roglič here. EF also chasing here.

Hope Remco isn't affected by the crash and hope Pinot can also be a protagonist in his last race.

indeed! No discussion, only 2 options still open:
1. he will win this bike race.
2. he won't win this bike race because of his crash.

Now remco should be forced to work for Masnada!!! Time to be humble. We can't have a 2021 repeat where fausto waste all his energies working for remco who just want to go in holidays

What does that have to do with anything?

I think it's only in Switzerland I have seen live images from inside a tunnel before. I wouldn't exactly have thought that the Italians would be next in life to accomplish that feat.

Get back to us when there are live images of it raining inside a tunnel. That might be interesting, the rest-I’ve seen it all and then some.

Have you ever seen a real tunnel in a French bike race?

Why of why oh why do EF do it ...let Jumbo or UAE chase ?

And I dont know the stats but I am guessing that every time they ride on the front they dont win the stage/race

I guess Healy wants to go from afar and they need the break within distance

but still

Exposure?

Carapaz seems to be in great form.

 

[topcat]

Have they finalised the start list yet? According to Fausto, it’s the most beautiful monument of the season so who are we to argue with that? Because of the crash, Remco is delaying his attack today.

It seems to me that Evenepoel took himself down:

They are riding for Carapaz I think

It seems that person from UAE (behind him, not next to him) rode against his wheel, or Remco deviated too much of his line and rode against the front wheel of that UAE guy

 

[HelloDolly]

do you think that will stop Healy attacking
