    At least nobody will want to be at the front thinking they can win the stage from the peloton.

    Managed to finish up early . Looks like I have timed in just the right time ... 14 mins for the break! What was the start like?

    Yawn worthy.
    Thanks 👍

    Is Ganna planning to ride all the way to Montalcino?
    If he does the gaps will be timed in minutes!

    Leaders will be on the second sector just as the peloton comes off the first one

    Evenepoel left well behind at the moment.
    Problem for Formolo.

    This is all about how brave you are going into the corners, isn't it?

    Love watching Ganna go to work in situations like this.

    Bardet was always up for this.

    Everybody else is in the bigger group two, so the gap is coming down..

    Strade is a real gap demolisher

    I'm not buying that this sort of stage has no place in a GT. It is real racing, the work in getting Bernal into a strong position with plenty of team support is on a par to smashing it up on the front of a race before a crosswind section.

    Bernal was pretty spicy in Strade Bianche wasn't he?

    Looks an awful lot more composed than Evenepoel.

    Two groups with the main contenders back together, and Ganna's empty.
