If the final climb is the same as last year, it's hard enough to drop someone that is not feeling 100%. That said, i hope Zana is fine and he we can see a nice battle between the italians.

Shame for Zana with the crash but otherwise chapeau Pena even with his bike problems.

So there is only 1 sec different between Zana and Ulissi. Can Ulissi gain it back today? There is a 1,5km @ 10+% climb less than 10km from the finish.
Last year Pog attacked on the same climb and then he and Mohoric went to the finish, with Pog outsprinting Mohoric at the line.

I guess with his team mate leading the race, that's unlikely to be the plan. But yeah, he looked like the strongest to me yesterday as well.

It looked weird, cause he could have won the race. Even if he felt the wind, like Worre suggested, Zana seemed to be worse off. But now he's sure to win the stage.

Not if he was worried that the group would catch him if Jayco started chasing.
But the Danish commentators were laughing about the prize money yesterday, so perhaps he thought Zana would pay him better.

Good to see Mohorič winning this stage after having been beaten by Pogačar last year. Dedicating the winning to Mäder too.
Zana is the deserved overall winner.

I thought Zana was a strong chance for GC, however he was even stronger than I imagined. Jayco did well to prioritise this race over Dauphine and Suisse.

Pinotti was on an Italian podcast last week and said he was happy with Zana's development this year.
He's more explosive than they thought and has good recovery. They might give him a chance to lead a GT in the coming years.
The Jayco Italian contingent should be a chance in the Italian RR - They have DeMarche, Zana, Sobrero and Colleoni who can colloborate well in the race.

Good day of racing, the steep climb at the end delved the GC action. And we even got Roglic at the end, what's not to like.

Frankly I've always rated his ability on short, punchy climbs and on hilly routes higher than his climbing ability. His climbing this year is the much bigger surprise, at least for me.

The commentators were saying Roglic is still a lot more popular than Pog in Slovenia, is that true?
