The Giro d'Italia Donne had it's start today in Cagliari, Sardinia, with a 4.7-kilometer prologue which set the first differences between the riders. The race didn't start so well for Bepink's Markéta Hájková who didn't carry enough speed and crashed off the starting ramp. The Czech rider was uninjured however.
The prologue was won by Kristen Faulkner who put on the first pink jersey of the race, and will be defending it throughout the next few days.

- Can anyone explain how on earth inhaling poisonous gas could be in any way beneficial for a rider?VinnySport12-11-2024
- Relax. It's only entertainment. No one pretended it to be otherwise. Sir Mark deserves such a spectacle and a salute. No need to be such a tight a**BM12-11-2024
- When it comes to saying stupid things, Thijs Zonneveld takes the cake. It's as if he's never followed bike racing before.
santiagobenites12-11-2024 - Most of Cavendish's wins where off the back of a sprint train so ½ of the effort was already done...
leedorney12-11-2024 - Quite right, writing off Jonas for 2025 victory after what he still managed under the circumstances is a big mistake. Riders are probably peaking younger these days which means they may not last as long and we might have to stop expecting progress until early thirties.Mistermaumau12-11-2024
- You only had to look at the faces of half the riders at the front to see what was going on. Looking to the side into tge crowds to hide their incapacity to stay serious and concentrated.Mistermaumau12-11-2024
- Maybe the greatest sprinter on roads but not the greatest pure sprinter, I think that’d be the chap who consistently beats everyone almost all the time, who at 27 has already been world champion 16x, european champion 12x, amassed 5 olympic golds plus a bronze and is far from finished. He may not becomes the first ever person to average 80km/h in a sprint (without a lead-out) but no-one has got closer.Mistermaumau11-11-2024
- If one can improve so can the other. The other day we were discussing Tadej’s leg shape change, if that is anything to go by, Jonas has plenty of potential left too.Mistermaumau11-11-2024
- He should exit to free up.the budget for younger riders and help the team reach its full potential. Basically he is just taking from the team at this point because he cannot bring any new money in from his performances. I mean sure getting to live the life of a pro another year as a circus attraction of sorts might be fun but it's just gotten selfish the past 2 years.northcarolinaeric11-11-2024
- Pog is the modern day Merckx. And the best part is he is a very nice guy too!
