Finally Peacock has live pictures with 70km to go - I can only presume they'll do the same tomorrow, so no need to plan to turn the TV on earlier tomorrow.
In this case, I'm not sure how much control they have--the Spanish broadcast stream only started 15 minutes ago.

Indeed, I think it's like this for everyone, but Peacock just advertises it wrong

yes, the weekend stages will be on earlier, but until then, live coverage always starts around this time.

Spanish people always eat late, so I think it goes with the country they are in.
It was always a favorite base for many, including American cyclists--there's even a nice coffeehouse run by a former U.S. pro. Beautiful city.
I'm in one of the nice coffeehouses watching the race rn lol, that's why I know that Godon is here cause I see him on the road all of the time!

The fight for position will start early today, probably already with 25K to go, because the coast road is constantly up, down, left, right, which means all the GC teams will fight to be at the front early, while all the teams with a puncheur candidate for today want the same.
Uno-X is all in for Cort today, but his big Achilles' heel is positioning, so it will be interesting to see how they solve it - I predict they will try to take the front with 10K+ to go and then keep hammering it until the bottom of the final 600m climb.

I expect nothing less than an alien performance from him now. We'll be calling him Godon Shumway after today.

apart from positioning, Cort also seems to struggle to find his form nowadays, and his good days become less every year.
On paper, this is a great finish for him, but in Sanremo the other day he still finished 100+ positions further behind than last time. So I'd think his shape is the biggest question mark right now.
Same finish as the last several years I think?
Versatile sprinter/puncheur, a GC guy would have to be incredible shape to take it imo.
Positioning important coming off the descent, Schultz beat Pogacar a couple of years back when Williams dropped the wheel.

I just looked at the startlist.
So, the front group went from two-Aznars, to no-Aznars.
Looks like they weren't lying about going for Gilmore, Vernon sat up.

Yeah halfway between an uphill sprint and a punchy finish, positioning in the last descent will be important. Expect Pidcock or Godon to take it

Will Vingo surprise the rest with his explosivity? Or will he just wait patiently for high mountains?
