On Danish TV they're talking about how the men and women have to share the coverage; with the women starting crazy early, so they can be done before the men start, because they're showing full-coverage of the men's race.
However, is that necessary? Surely they can show the finale - and preferably a bit more than just 30 Ks - of the women's race, while the men are in the early phases of their race. Of course if there's a route-issue then it's a different talk.
I guess it's just a question of viewers. Presumably even the final of the women's race will attract fewer viewers than the start of the men's race.

Great race, but Grace, you broke me by giving me hope. If I'd just known Deignan was going to win comfortably I might have reconciled to it better, but as that gap kept coming down I just had that sliver of hope we might get a better result.

There's a fine line between sliver and silver.

i take it this is live on Eurosport today?

No, I'm in England having to watch on a potato stream :(

The Giro is on though ES 2 at 2PM

Kipchoge just cracked pretty dramatically in a marathon so it's an omen for a mad Liege

It's on the ES player I believe but as for normal TV it seems to just depend on where you live.

A big surprise to see Brown race so well on this type of parcours - AVV and AVDB spent the race looking at each other.

FFS why isn't there someone to warn the riders.
Damn it. I hope his season isn't over. Expected him to do good today and the coming weeks.
one of the most obviously dangerous types of road obstacles, low and in the middle of the road, completely invisible to anyone riding in a close peloton. Inexcusable that it wasn’t guarded by someone with a big flag

They fear he fractured his shoulder. If that's the case the season is over unfortunately.

Pileup on a bend. Barguil, Caruso, Valgren all look done?

Correction, as above Arkea rider was Pichon?

Alaphilippe involved but looked ok.
