Colbrelli's pulled in front but there are a few groups behind still too.
What do you think, it's a bit worrying for Cav, no? They didn't pull back anything really on the descent/valley and the second ascent could be harder.

Has any Giro stage winner had a good tour? Even Merlier won a stage at the Tour and then abandoned.I'll be surprised if Campenaerts doesn't abandon in Malauncene.
A faster pace for the winner doesn't help the gruppetto. It increases the allowed gap to the winner, but not the total time to complete the stage.Alaphillipe is going to have to motor up the climb to give a nice cushion for Cav behind in the time cuts
Gerrans is now based in Australia like Keenan and McEwan - It's interesting that he has chosen to travel to Europe while Keenan and McEwan have chosen to remain in Oz - Its probably a quarantine issue.
I have seen Ligget's studio - It's cramped while his TV monitor is small. small

Dont worry, Nibali is going to bridge to himElissonde is probably 5 minutes too light on the descent.
CdA of approx 0.0, though.Elissonde is probably 5 minutes too light on the descent.
AG2R to the rescue?
In that Wout is pushing the watts of 3 Elissondes?That a powerful chase trio!
I seem to remember someone saying that weight was from the pure CX days and he's a bit lighter now?PCS data may not be very accurate, but according to that there is a 50% weight difference between the front two (52kg vs 78)
And so it came to pass.I'll be surprised if Campenaerts doesn't abandon in Malauncene.
