- I think that just sitting up like he did showed his tactical immaturity. He has a lot of potential, and I've no doubt that he'll learn from these errors in the future.
- I bet that nobody saw that coming. That was a beautiful redemption ride from Simon Yates today, and a very clever one as well. He's dosed his efforts nicely during this entire Giro, and managed to exploit the stalemate between del Toro and Carapaz exactly the right time. It was good to see that the Visma team got their tactics right today as well, with Wout being his awesome self once again. What a great Giro this has been!
- Del toro just gave up. he should have kept Yates in range. The team DS should have managed the tactics better especially with satellite riders
- What a day at the Giro! Why they let Yates go I'll never know, he finally conquered the Colle delle Finestre in dramatic fashion. He can now forget about 2018. Good on him!
- That was a great surprise!! Not many saw this one coming :-) Congrats to Simon Yates and great team tactics from Visma with Wout van Aert waiting for him. Great stage!!
- I've gone into great detail in the past, not just about Merckx but about other great champions. We will never really know, all I can do from my perspective is look at data.
- You need that SiS beta fuel to win this stage. Or at least that's what Chris Froome said in that ad.
- We should all learn something from his teammate Tiej. Never express your frustration when your heart rate is high. Wait till it lowers.
- A pathetic and infinitely stupid comment (why UAE would give stimulants to del Toro and not to his captain AYuso). It's a shame that defamation on the internet is still free. These defamers, these lions of keyboard, should be prosecuted.
- So you don’t respect athletes who will sacrifice their personal priorities for others? What is wrong with an MVDP deciding to quit a race he’s only participating in to help a team-mate because his personal objective was always a different event after causing a clash in preparation? Why should athletes be expected to adapt their program to the desires if spectators? It’s not as if you are paying him directly (be careful about answering that because it might trap you into having to justify hypocrisy with respect to general economic consumption). You say you admire and watch principally because of the excellence on show, in that case you should just accept and enjoy it when you see it and look for it elsewhere when some aren’t showing it? I often enjoy watching schoolkids or amateurs trying and racing as much as watching the best, it can be just as exciting, interesting, enjoyable, educational and impressive. Enjoy the moment. Everyone does something better than another.
