    Weird he got out of the pedal there. They get these sorts of pushes all the time from the spectators. Looked in trouble before the push as well

    The push, pushed him into Roger's and he touched his wheel.

    Probably thought he was going down as he got pushed into Rogers back wheel.

    If you're a spectator, spectate. The clues in the name.

    Rogers asking some fans for four coffees, or something like that.

    Looking like Rodgers has got this now unless he blows up in the last 1.5k... yeah huge gap on helicopter shot there, 30+ seconds

    Been a great tour for Australia even if it's probably the last time we see Evans fighting for a GT win.

    What a Giro for Rogers. That incident took away any chance of an exciting finish though.

    Nice one Mick.

    Pellizotti came back for 2nd ahead of Bongiorno, Uran now on the front with Quintana on his wheel

    Shame Uran and Quintana played the numbers game.

    Great win for Rogers.

    Quite an uncomfortable watch at times.

    Pretty sure the clinic will explode after this.

    Guess we'll see Rui Costa WC jerseys in the sales from now on. Rodgers did look the strongest, but fans were denied a fair contest.

    The Zoncolan is an epic setting but it's really not conducive to exciting racing. And the spectators were bell ends today.

    Hard to disagree with this. When a climb is so steep everyone is just trying to get to the top... I suppose the excitement comes not from possible attacks but from possible blow ups.

    W*nker in WC shirt that ruins Bongiorno's race and doesn't even have the self respect or shame to just get off the f*cking road and carries on trying to get amongst the riders. I'd have a motorbike/team car run a few over...

    Maybe WC jersey plonker was the same guy who sat on my wheel/half wheeled me for 40k today while wearing full WC kit.

    Half wheelers can easily be dealt with.

    Just do some unusual lurches to whichever side they're leaning on, especially if they're between you and the curb ;).
