PCS creeper van sighting

 

[Samamba]

Meintjes win in Itzulia last year is worth more than this joke

 

[postmanhat]

Del Grosso must have fallen asleep. Descent leading to sprint is a great opportunity for him.

Imagine starting at the back and losing time towards 5k to go as a GC rider

 

[rokovski]

Next time put them on zwift..

Gall unfortunately, DNS today.

 

[Netserk]

5 km to go is most of the way up the penultimate climb. Stomp?

[Netserk]

(B)DSM should be less braindead.

 

[JoãoRamos]

Roglic is losing this.

Why would Roglic take risks when there's nothing to gain?

 

[QueenStagiaire]

He can gain time at 5 k to go where they take the time???

 

[Netserk]

A 1" gap puts him in the lead.

 

[Samamba]

Do we know if the timing is actually on that hill and not just before?

 

[postmanhat]

Presumably, there's still points awarded at the finish?

 

[Didinho]

So in 1,5km there’s the time for GC?

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Taking time at 5 k to go makes no sense here, I doubt the last 5 k are that much more dangerous.

 

[AmRacer]

Echelons

Well yeah that's the weird thing, this is completely useless why tf would a descent towards a timing point be less dangerous than the actual uphill finish

I wonder if a lot of riders even know what's actually happening

 

[Lequack]

So now they neutralize stages even in warm sunny weather? Is there a danger of sunburn?

 

[Samamba]

Well that was it, the finish for GC riders lol what a joke

 

[AmRacer]

Rogla and Ayuso will sprint

 

[Netserk]

Mistake of Rogla to sit up, I assume this stage also counts towards their stage sum.

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Ridiculously large checkered flag, why do they even have that?
