Itzulia Basque Country 2025, April 7th-12th

[Didinho]

Maybe something happened at that side earlier and they had to switch it? But no communication or did he just went for it.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

NIce race action. Solid move by Aranburu. Chapeau.

 

[Didinho]

Just give it to Soler. Everybody happy.

[Samu Cuenca]

UWN

 

[Tim Cahill]

There'll be riots on the streets of the Basque country tonight.

Well, more riots than usual anyway.

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Disgusting decision if the road book specified the right side of the roundabout

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Well, you can‘t charge the guys waving to you to turn the other way head on.

 

[pastronef]

so they had the RIGHT racebook but the wrong turn?

Vino is too strong!

 

[Didinho]

If he knows the roads so well. Was going full gas knowing he had to go right, could he even brake in time if he’s not looking forward all the time?
It’s also half open still, why not fully closed.

 

[dgodave]

Ugh. Probably the right decisions but I want to see the finish fought properly.

Just to be clear; he's just relegated.
Disqualifying him would certainly be harsh!

 

[Netserk]

Just to be clear; he's just relegated.
Disqualifying him would certainly be harsh!

DSQ is also an option.

 

[Peyroteo94]

João got 3rd. Good news! He is ahead of Lipowitz now!

Yup lol disqualifying was not the right term. Merely relegated to 10th apparently

 

[Monsi]

João got 3rd. Good news! He is ahead of Lipowitz now!

Schachmann's lead also reduced to 2 seconds.

 

[Samamba]

Im sure they won't do it cause it's probably not intentional but according to the rules they should also deduct 100 UCI points.

Astana about to make sure that happens

 

[Logic-is-your-friend]

Let them race the final 2k again like in the olden days!

 

[Peyroteo94]

Schachmann's lead also reduced to 2 seconds.

He will be dropped in the last stage. UAE is too strong!

Well looks like there might be more to it.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Crap decision. Oh well.

 

[Monsi]

He will be dropped in the last stage. UAE is too strong!

Schachmann can be dropped tomorrow too on Izua. He was already getting dropped on the 2nd to the last climb today.

 

[Escarabajo]

I don't agree with the DSQ. Fix the roadbook first. Especially for someone that is from the region.

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Schachmann definitely won‘t fight for the win, at best he‘ll follow to the bottom of the Top 10 like in 2019.
