It's very early but everything I've seen doesn't suggest good weather for Stelvio next week. Quite the opposite.Not sure if Finestre will be plan B or they'll get straight to plan C, but I read that there's some good weather predictions about Stelvio. That stage should settle the score.
Check again, seems good weather and higher temperatures are coming (on all major models now).It's very early but everything I've seen doesn't suggest good weather for Stelvio next week. Quite the opposite.
So you are telling, that he won't win the Giro?I don't understand why Nibali should have troubles tomorrow anyway.
I mean if he can't follow the other GC guys in such a stage he won't win the Giro.
big test tomorrow
Honestly. Bidon crash, Covid, Covid, flat, what is next?The voodoo thing is getting out of hand.

Pozzovivo is going to go full Horner I can feel it
Positive me: in the bag.
Negative me: losing to Pozzovivo (Horner), Almeida (Carapaz-lite) or Zakarin (Iglinsky?) would be the most Nibali thing ever.
Like, I want Nibali to win you know, but if Pozzo pulls a Horner I'm not gonna complain about it either.Pozzovivo is going to go full Horner I can feel it
Told you he wouldn't have any problems today, actually Jakob looked the worst on the last hill (without considering his usual bad luck).
A Pozzo win is the only result I would celebrate more than a Nibali win.Like, I want Nibali to win you know, but if Pozzo pulls a Horner I'm not gonna complain about it either.
I really wouldn't mind Pozzovivo tbh.
But TT and big mountain stages... let's say he often doesn't perform that well there.
BUT Covid year, so who knows.
Funnily both winning against Kelderman and Almeida and losing to Kelderman and Almeida because of covid would totally fit to the Nibali narratives.Losing to Kelderman or Almeida due to the Covid cancellations would be the most Nibali thing ever, and I predict that's what will happen. ( or no winner at all )
This. This Giro will most likely be the most Nibali thing ever, regardless of how it actually ends up.Funnily both winning against Kelderman and Almeida and losing to Kelderman and Almeida because of covid would totally fit to the Nibali narratives.
