Vuelta a España Vuelta a España 2025, Stage 3: San Maurizio Canavese – Ceres (134.6k)

[Dazed and Confused]

well, happy to see Vinge aggressive....

The "Pedersen vs. Vingegaard Green Jersey Battle" wasn't on my bingo card for the Vuelta. But I'm here for it.

 

[QueenStagiaire]

The Man in green is back now

 

[postmanhat]

As I said, no smart racing allowed.

Lol. What a joke. The leader's jersey or an inconsequential amount of points.

 

[Didinho]

didn't see the interview myself, but apparently Vingegaard yesterday said that he would try to win green as well

He’s a sprinter after all.

Boni seconds

If Jonas is chasing the points jersey as well I feel obliged to start calling him Vingegreed for consistency sake.

 

[scribers]

All these EF guys look exactly alike. Except for the southern rock one

I would feel obliged to agree with you.

On pcs it said Philipsen dropped?

These Eruosport ads are getting out of control. Didn't expect Peter Sagan to try to sell me an app.

I am watching on Spain Eurosport and Bike Occasion.. And apps are a big thing.. And mens cologne!! Yuck!! The ad of the black guy taking a bath with his bike is also annoying!! In US we had a semi popular site called ProsCloset to buy,sell used bikes it went out of business and is back again.. I personally don't know anyone who has used the second hand bike services and don't know anyone who used Lease a Bike services..
Whoop and Zwift must make money because they spend a ton on marketing!!

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Is this the Quinn's stage?

 

[tobydawq]

Was reading about the theft of Visma LB and thought, why in the world are staff not taking turns to sleep in the trucks ?

Because this is a Grand Tour of the 21st century, not a crusade during Medieval times...

 

[dgodave]

OK that really was a nice little church.

 

[Unchained]

So Pedersen takes all the seconds but Ciccone and Vingegaard still sprint for nothing anyway.

All about big picture for Ciccone, Trek is doing lion's share of all the work and it's day three!! Ciccone might as well be riding solo by the end of the second week!! Trek will be mostly toasted by then. Vingegaard not doing anything extra.. And UAE is not in camera view most of the day.. If UAE doesn't have energy to burn that is what I am watching.. Bora also very reserved.. riding with lots of economy!!

 

[Moose McKnuckles]

Victor Camping Yurts!

 

[Andre]

I'm wondering if Jasper can win this stage

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Treks pace here is pedestrian......

 

[Andre]

Tomorrow La Vuelta starts...mini Giro will be over, thank God

 

[RedheadDane]

I'm wondering if Jasper can win this stage

Who's the better climber? De Buyst, or Philipsen?

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Treks pace here is pedestrian......

It would be silly to ride faster here, this Vuelta is quite relaxed, no position fight yet

Yeah the mechanics have hardly any work to do.. And you think extra criminal activity makes your chain lube boil!! Mechanics have a team time trial to prep for.!!
I hope that Vingegaard and family don't bring their emotional support animals and expect mechanics to walk, feed, shampoo and clean up after them!!

Notwithstanding that 2025 Peter looks like he could have eaten 2010 Peter and gone back for dessert, 'twas ever thus. I distinctly recall Eurosport ads being things like cycling shoes being sold as a culinary delicacy by Ivan Basso and Vincenzo Nibali, or by a naked Pippo Pozzato.

All true, but…probably time for teams to hire some security.
