Kirby tipping Si Clarke.

Whatever anyone's thoughts on Kirby, and he is a bit marmite, this constant Si Clarke obsession is just bloody unprofessional. It's almost as if he has a running bet on to mention him as a contender for literally every stage of any race he's in.

It really is pathetic!

Why does it matter? It's only sports commentary after all

Congrats to Trentin.
Shame for Pozzo, but good to see there was no crash on this finish.

Stupid finish, too dangerous. Whose idea was it to put a 1km banner in such a way that it narrowed the road even further?

Nice leadout and good win by Trentin, obviously the best sprinter until Degenkolb gets well, unless he retires. Kirby was seriously annoying, more so than normal - managed to convince himself that jelle wallays was a GC contender.

Alaphilippe new job, sprint leads out.

Congrats to Trentin.

I've noticed that too. Trying to race himself back into shape after knee surgery I imagine, maybe for Lombardia?

By that measure, let's just let any old fool commentate then shall we. After all, it's only sports commentary.

I don't know what it is exactly but there's something going on with this Si Clarke thing, and it's tiresome.
