Tirreno-Adriatico 2025, March 10-16

[Extinction]

there's an interview on Youtube where he mainly sounds disappointed about losing the chance to win, and also apologizes for his rude words earlier on. I guess it was taken a bit later on.

Yea in the previous interview, annoyed by a very normal question, he responded with contempt "non lo so" ("I don't know"). An awkward silence followed. It was an unpleasant vibe.

Not sure he’s able to drop Pogacar and MVDP. So he needs to beat them in the sprint, but he’s slower.

Like others have said, if he's gonna be beat it'll probably be in the descent.
Ganna against Pogacar and Mathieu in a sprint? Yes, Mathieu should be faster. Pogacar? I don't really think so. If he wants to, Ganna can actually deliver a very decent sprint.

Remember Cancellara in 2008?

It'd be a great shame if the weather were like in 2016 and they had to cancel the stage. Or at least the last climb. Would be most unfortunate. Maybe though the riders deserve a rest day after a tough week? As much as it would displease the organisers and all of Italy, I think they should cancel today's stage. Yeah, the riders should protest the finish and stage results cancelled.

 

[Netserk]

But what is the chance of that? I guess that never happens in Italy.

what exactly are you talking about?

If the organisers were as willing as they have previously been to alter the route, Ganna would easily win the GC.

I think the Ganna discussion above was about Sanremo, but yeah... fortunately the weather looks pretty "good" today.

Ayuso to stamp his name among the best GC riders in the world from here on out, starting with Tirreno-Adriatico.

I would think its because despite his best endeavours and obvious really good form he' s pizzed off by only winning once.
Probably started with all the stupid sheep following the wrong leader on stage one in Portugal.

I've seen him give rude interviews in the past. Sure, it has to do with being sour over bad luck, lack of winning when he could have, which happens to many, but it's mainly a character issue.
