Vuelta a España Vuelta a España 2025, Stage 16: Poio/Poyo – Castro de Herville/Erville (167.9k)

[motty89]

Visma could have go to the Vuelta without Kuss and Jorgenson. They haven't been using any of the days to pull, but they're not getting into the breakaways either.

Jorgenson, complaining so much about Pogacar not letting him in the Tour, and he's not trying here

A) How do you know jorgensen isn't trying to get in breakaways when lots of the stages aren't broadcast in full?

B) Jorgensen launched vingegaard on Veldazcarray, that time could become pretty important the way this vueltas going....

With how big and still weak a lot of the breakaways have been, I think it's very inconceivable Jorgenson wouldn't be able to make the break once.

Visma one man down ... not sure how many in UAE now ...

 

[Rou]

Almeida should be very careful today.
Jonas usually after a second rest day is 'loaded with love'.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Very good stage design, but it may end in another Vine win.
Then I hope Pidcock drops the placement games, and attack on the penul. climb.

Without Campy it's a field day for Vine/Ayuso/Soler party

You can follow the stage from the start on radio vuelta, or PCS. They cover the breakaway attempts, and Jorgenson has never been involved in it.

Astana must get 3 rider minimus on the breakway today

 

[Unterlenkerfahrend]

Campenaerts DNS today. Will increase the likelihood for the success of breakaways in the next couple of days..

Something brewing at Visma? They looked surprisingly passive last week and while Kuss has been good everyone else felt slightly subpar.

It's a stage that suits Pidcock well; the final climb is more like the other day's than the Angliru. Q36.5 pulled the day the stage was suspended.

They could have Q36.5's support. If Ciccone is well, LIDL will also be there. Although I think LIDL will opt for the breakaway.

Lidl will definitely not ride for Ciccone in the peloton...

This stage looks like a profile of my teef

Go see an orthodontist.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Marc looking to support his team leader from 5 minutes up the road again “just in case”.

 

[Samamba]

It's Soler time today, but maybe just maybe UAE gets beaten in a break for once. Bernal and Landa are also there

 

[Rob5091]

Looks like the usual suspects in the break (including Soler).

 

[Red Rick]

Yeah 0 chance Soler loses this

They've put Bagioli in the breakaway. He's not at his best.

Vino needs to crack the whip man wtf is this team doing

The A team is in Italy going after one day races and points.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Go Landa and Bernal, this cannot fail.....

[Salvarani]

Soler in break!

YES

Go Marc

 

[Netserk]

Vingegaard (speaking of illness): I had a bit in the throat (last week).

 

[Earns1985]

Jonas Vingegaard before the stage for TV2:

“I was a little bit ill last week, I was coughing a bit. I think people could also see that. But it’s getting better and better and because we had the rest day yesterday I feel good again today.”
