Primož Roglič (Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe) has come up to the main organisers car and has asked for the peloton to stop and let them clear the course then they race to the finish this lap with a stage winner and no GC times taken.

Wtf?

Seriously why do you not just cancel this whole farce? Absolutely no point in racing without boni's or times being taken at 5km to go. Either it's safe to race or it isn't.

Always wonder in these situations how 3 riders (Fraile, Soler and Lopez) are the 'unanimous' voice of the peleton?

No bonus seconds, now that’s really unfair
"An update on the plans for the stage today. The first 60km lap will be neutralised, to assess the wind. After leaving Berga, the race will be deneutralised. The organisers have established a timing point 5km before the finish line in Berga, where the GC times will be taken for the stage. Having passed this point, the riders will continue racing into Berga and contest the stage win. There will be no bonus seconds available on the line and there will be no intermediate sprint"

This seems a piss take if they can't race in this weather. Seeing no reason from the live video why they can't

Riders don't want to finish 18 CET, it's an early start tomorrow
