Awesome stage!
I liked quite a lot the work Fabbro did in Giro last year, so I happily admit I'm glad to see him up there in the GC. |

Yeah, this could finally be his breakthrough year, did an awesome job in the Giro, but would never guess he would be sitting 5th before the two final stages with such a star-studded startlist.  |

I've got a soft spot for Finn Fisher-Black because of one of my careers in PCM and I followed him a bit. There days there are Paris-Nice and Tirreno-Adriatico, but it seems Fisher-Black took the victory in Istrian Spring Trophy on the last stage. |

True. And I hope we didn't see the last of him. Personally I doubt that.
I had another joy this year when Vingegaard took a stage in UAE Tour.  So two riders I am happy to see doing well in 2021. |

I guess the entire waiting for the yellow jersey when he crashes thing is dead now.
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

Right at the beginning of the stage. Dunno if he did again now. But this is actually ironic. |

While I am not a big fan of riding when the yellow jersey crashes, this whole inofficial rule is stupid anyway as it doesn`t really count for other riders, e.g. if the 9th in GC crashes, no one will wait, probably not even for the 4th or something.
For some teams/riders it`s just as big to fight for those later top10 positions but won`t get a bonus if they crash.
In this case I haven`t followed the full stage, so not sure how/where Roglic crashed exactly, but other teams shouldn`t totally stop to race as it`s not just against him but also against all others, that fight for the podium and can`t wait everytime someone crashes. |

They "started" racing then.
Bad Karma for what?

Not sure if Roglic crashed a second time or he lost contact due to the injuries from the first crash. If he just lost contact, the others pushing is just racing.
If they started racing because of a second crash, that's not very... nice. The race wasn't on. They made it on as soon as Roglic was behind, but again I'm not sure if it was due to another crash or just a consequence of injuries from the first one.

He crashed a 2nd time, after the first one only his right sight was open, now it's both sides. He later also had to change his bike after that due to the crash. |
