Well, I suppose that shows a lot of self-interest on JV's part!

He wouldn't be after some more self publicity would he ? I mean if he felt there was any sort of health risk for his team why not just pull out...From the man himself.
To give this some color: We aren’t threatening to leave. Just making a suggestion that we feel is correct given the situation. We’d rather race all the way to finish in Milan. And if the next round of tests show it’s safe to do that; we will.

Hi.
can someone tell me who GCN Eurosport has doing the remote interviews? They maybe mention her name but I haven’t heard it.
Thanks.

Do you mean Orla Chennaoui ?

Yep. Mr Vaughters is erudite and often interesting, but also sometimes a selfish daffodil.

Stage win, rim brakes, in the wet.

Um.. , weathers turned, no duck on rain jackets, publicity band wagon dropping like a stone,throw the covid bombshell.

Too hard a stage for Demare today ? GC battle has become pretty tame compared to the fight for stage wins for me.

Much too hard. Probably too hard for Sagan if the two climbs are raced hard. Ulissi FTW and a bit of GC action too

Sagan will want this stage if Bora are going to ride or him...points ! Depends how much there interested in GC I guess.Are Majka and Konrad going to go full gas/FDJ for him ?

The GC might well be conserving energy for the TT and the mountain finish on Sunday.

Hope I'm wrong and Pozzo or, dare I say, Nibali have a dig.

 

[matticus]

Prediction: the revitalised winning Sagan will be confident of winning the points jersey, so his team will focus on him (rather than getting 8th-or-whatever on GC).
