Itzulia Basque Country 2023 (April 3-8)

[Netserk]

Gregoire

Thank you. Confirmed now on the screen.

 

[repre]

I think he's way over the quota already.

Omg so annoying, also can't recognize riders so constantly looking at the pcs live and simply telling what he is seeing there. Why english commentators are so bad((

 

[Didinho]

Bagioli really impressive the last days! Looks good for the hilly classics. Hope he can take a stage here.

 

[Netserk]

Mas obviously not attacking, but working for Aranburu.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Valter should go

 

[Libertine Seguros]

Yea, don't think it's a mass sprint but it's an obvious reduced bunch is obvious kind of day.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Just let Chaves go, don't bother chasing that

 

[search]

so after all that work, Martinez didn't even make the front group of ~25?!

 

[Lequack]

Vingegaard already in Tour form of responding to every attack and winning at the end.

 

[Poursuivant]

Yates looks off it a bit this week

 

[Escarabajo]

There is not one single INEOS. Time to sound the alarm. What were they doing?

 

[Aimar16]

so after all that work, Martinez didn't even make the front group of ~25?!

They worked for Hayter

 

[Netserk]

so after all that work, Martinez didn't even make the front group of ~25?!

He has looked quite bad, but I think he stays with and works for Hayter today.

 

[Didinho]

Bagioli working, is Schmid back?

 

[Poursuivant]

Schmid to finish second

 

[Netserk]

No Aranburu in the front group!?

 

[Libertine Seguros]

No Aranburu in the front group!?

Is the second Movistar Guerreiro then? I can pick out Mas but haven't got a clear look at the other Movi yet.

 

[Netserk]

Is the second Movistar Guerreiro then?

Danish commentators think so. The heli zoomed in and showed the bib number of everyone in the group, but I didn't catch who the second Movistar rider was.

 

[DNP-Old]

Schmid is never going to win a race again.

 

[Lequack]

Kirby surprised Shellmose didn't win like he was supposed to.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Higuita Monster

 

[Netserk]

Higuita takes it with ease!

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Higuita deserved that one after Wednesday's debacle.

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Higuita Party

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Kirby surprised Shellmose didn't win like he was supposed to.

I think Kirby has tipped him to win all five stages so far. Makes his views on Simon Clarke seem unbiased by comparison.
