  • Looking forward to this, but worried Hatch is gonna turn it up to 11 given how slow they’re going uphill

    Must have lost 5 seconds there. Casual but messy change.

    Gee helmet change may end up being the biggest talking point of the giro...

    The nutters are out in force.

    Almeida looking like he’s struggling but not a section we’ve seen others riding.

    Unless my laptop was buffering, I thought Thomas looked visible slower compared to Rogliç in that last shot

    The graphic is showing who is up isnt it? Hatch has it wrong? It doesnt make sense what happened on the flat otherwise. They showed thomas with 2” then thomas was clearly quickest to the bike change.
