Pozzovivo was untouchable, and that climb was absoloutely brutal.

Damn it, I wanted to see that climb, but I missed it.
Why does it have to finish so early? It finishes while I'm still in school.

Well Pozzovivo is really strong, but he's weak TT. I hope Szmyd will be leader on Giro couse he's strongest Liq climber atm, also he was incredible at team TT, mates losed wheel while he was on front.

Got to watch the final climb. Seems to have been quite an interesting stage. A terrific job for Pozzo. Hope he won't fail in the Giro. Szmyd <3

I was surprised when the commentators said it hadn't been put in before, it's dangerous in places and extremely good to watch.

If you have Eurosport, there are highlights at 6:30 here, about two hours ago.

Yes - really enjoyed watching the Trentino climb just now. Pretty brutal - great performance from Cunego to hang tough the way that he did. Got to be a good bet for LBL.
Pretty funny to see Basso and Di Luca take a wrong turn on the climb after Agnoli.

I caught them on the climb on Eurosport just as I walked in from college.
That climb was brutal, it reminds me of two climbs near Aberdovey in Wales, Happy Valley and Cross Foxes but significantly longer

He is strongest at the moment, but i doubt he will be the leader with Basso in the squad. He will rather pull Basso up the mountains as super-domestique (like every year). Is Basso making Giro right?
Nice to see Kreuziger pretty much hanging behind the mountain dwarves like Rujano and Pozzovivo, this climb is so brutal for rider of his height and weight.

The Giro is likely to be decided in the final week. That's about 5/6 weeks away. I'd be happy enough if I was Basso with the performance on the climb especially after recent crashes.

I think Basso will lose a lot of time in the Giro

Atapuma wins, Betancur second, Pozzovivo third.
