they climbed Piancavallo with an average of 6.3 wkg....more than one minute faster than Pinot in 2017.
Nibali got almost same average watts of his 2017, are you sure to call it a crack? Sunweb performance was absolutely on the top level of cycling.

Gaviria testes positive for Covid-19 today. Only rider to do so, apparently. He’s gotta be a subject for scientific studies if he really is infected and not a false positive since he already had caught it in February. He’s feeling well now, according to the team. |

There have been several cases of people who caught it twice though, that's the whole reason the herd immunity thing doesn't work, as the antibodies don't stay in the blood for long enough.
It would explain his backwards sprinting, I really hope he can get back to his former self.
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

Yeah, I know, hence the comment for scientific studies.  Plus he’s an athlete so it would be interesting to see what being infected by the virus twice has caused to his system too. I believe that can explain why he was so terrible when last month he was winning mass sprint finishes and being beaten by Ackermann only in the Tirreno. A shame though, he looked like the next sprint big thing 4 or 5 years ago. |

João looked so good. Kelderman... I mean biggest threat but definitely not as fresh as other guys it seems. |

Fuglsang looked quite heavy too...Almeida reminds me to Yates in 2018, hopefully for him not with same epilogue. Kellerman still my main favorite for final GC but Hart can be a crazy surprise. let's wait to see tomorrow also to call out Nibali from contention

Agnello likely cancelled. Stage 20 will probably be this:

Awful, awful for stage 20.

Guerreiro got the points at the top of the first climb, back into the KOTM jersey he is |

Fun fact: Guerreiro wasn't even interested in the blue jersey until he saw the new EF jersey.

Everyone waiting for Stelvio tomorrow.
I'm very curious to what Ineos is going to do tomorrow. Tao seems really strong and they have a team to pull him. |

Almeida looked quite nervous on final climb despite happened nothing to mark

Sprinters likely already feeling the pressure to be lapped I guess. |

Visconti DNS today. Guerreiro's KOTM jersey is pratically assured. Today is a very important day. Allez Almeida, vamos! |

De Gendt is on the break but I don’t think he can reach Guerreiro even if he is the first over the Stelvio. Which I also think is highly improbable to happen.
Ready to virtually support João. Let’s do it!! |
