    Aru was my PTP today, thought he would have tried to get in the breakaway at some point

    Is this the biggest leeway a break has been given this Giro?

    How many breaks have been successful this tour? Seems to be particularly low this year.

    All seems fairly relaxed, but even with a breakaway day I'm hoping & expecting there to be GC action when we get to the MTF.

    is this is the best case for sunweb and sky

    easy ride to the base of the climb and then all in?
