LaFlorecita said:On NOS a few minutes ago a bit of a recap of this giro... and it made me really happy for Vincenzo!! Yay Now I'll just have to avoid the hype to keep this feeling Go Nibs
Netserk said:Officially he already has as many GT podium finishes as Alberto. And more top-10 than Alberto
Afrank said:1/2?
Because of the competition of the Vuelta?
