Tirreno-Adriatico 2026 March 9-15

[Salvarani]

Great sportsmanlike from Pelllizarri

 

[Squire]

Trademark Alaphilippe leg shake!

 

[Red Rick]

Weakness of UAE and tactical ineptitude of every other team both equally exposed.

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Panache is back

 

[Berniece]

I don't understand UAE at the moment. When you know you aren't going to catch them, let RBH do it then...

 

[SafeBet]

I don't think so, no. If Vendrame gets steady pace, he can win a Pau-type Pyrenees stage in the Tour.

This was around 4000mt of elevation gain: https://www.procyclingstats.com/race/giro-d-italia/2021/stage-12/info/profiles

IMO gradient of said elevation matters a lot as well.

 

[Extinction]

On second thought, it's gonna be close.

 

[Squire]

Go Valgren!

 

[Heston]

Valgren strong. Gonna be real close

 

[Tim Cahill]

Christen great leadout for Roglic with Del Toro nowhere near him

sure, but my point was more than Vendrame is more of a diesel than a puncheur, although it is unusual for a (formerly) sprinter-type of rider. The total elevation doesn't matter too much to him, what kills him is change of pace

 

[Rechtschreibfehler]

Pelizzari in trouble?

 

[Berniece]

Pellizzari is going to break

 

[Salvarani]

Roglic not helping him

 

[Tim Cahill]

Pellizzari more suited for long alpine stages rather than this but he's holding on well

 

[Tim Cahill]

He needs to move up into P3, Buitrago is dropping wheels a bit

 

[Rou]

Carapaz mugging del Toro again.
Love it!

 

[Heston]

Carapaz chasing his teammate

 

[Extinction]

Del Toro needs to do one big attack, instead of pulling and seek collaboration, when he will get none

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Carapaz attacks del toro!!!!

 

[Salvarani]

Carapaz must have no clue Valgren is ahead

 

[saunaking]

torito & carapaz!!!!!!

 

[Didinho]

What is Healy waiting for. Attack those teammates!

 

[Rou]

Del a Toro destruction
