    Funny moment on DK Eurosport with Matti Breschel on expert comms: Jens Voigt on moto starts talking up the break (before getting cut off in a tunnel). The DK coms asks Breschel what he thinks: "I haven't listened to Jens in 10 years"

    Much as I love MvdP, the white shorts are such a no, no.

    The only race he has lost this season was when wearing white shorts btw......

    They haven’t climbed the Cipressa much faster than the breakaway.

    Hatch confirms it wasn’t a very quick ascent.

    All the hard work undone letting a massive group back. Kudos to the guy from the break who attacked again as soon as they were caught.
