One bit of tradition is mostly going to be gone though: RAI is no longer producing the broadcasts :cheer: 

 

RAI's producing team in cycling is mostly known for being able to mess everything up at the slightest hint of rain in the distance, as so many Italian races - the Giro especially - have shown in the previous years. At least stormy weather makes it heroic :d 

Never mind, this was awful, they basically missed the deciding part :lol:

 

What a finish though!

So I went to Stage 3 yesterday, I was at one of the turns before Lake Balaton in a village.  Thankfully the weather wasn't too bad and I managed to find a place later in Keszthely to watch the finish.

Ewan fell meters from the finish line, and he was lying there for minutes. Just WHY?

If you lay on the ground, you lose important seconds and positions, you must get up as fast as you can, and you can care about your wound after the finish line.

He is a sprinter and do not care for general classification therfore time and positions. Only for winning single stages.

 

 

Never mind.

Finish pretty nice. The whole stage seems to were boring.

If he doesn't care about the overall, why is he there at all? It's like swimming the first 100 meters of the 1500, sounds dumb

Grand Tour Cycling is not about one prize: there are maybe 30-40 different prizes in a three week race.

I didn't watch the stage today, but I read the results, it says 156 riders crossed the finish line at the same time, not even a second difference happened. I can't imagine this...

      Russian athletes that have changed nationalities

      By heywoodu · Posted

      Ukrainian diver Lyskun switches allegiance to Russia, loses all medals | Olympics News | Al Jazeera   'loses all medals'   I would assume Al Jazeera could have been a bit clearer and mention this would presumably only be national medals. I mean, it's not like the Ukrainian federation, or any single federation for that matter, has the power to strip her of her world and European championships medals I hope (not for her sake, but because that would be a super weird precedent)

      That's what I'd plan as well (except for MelFest), but I also know I am hypocritical enough to still want to watch the show and have a fun evening

      Confirmation about the broadcasting rights.   If I'm reading it right, for most of Europe it will now be exclusive to Discovery/Eurosport or whatever brand they use.     For outside Europe, it's on YouTube. For Planet VPN....well, let us know if you find out.   fil-taker-list-25-26-winterberg-1.pdf   Also, should have mentioned above that the Nations Cup races today are just over one leg, whereas there are two runs in each of the World Cup races.

      Surely. Her first coach now works in russia (and grandma lives in russia according to Sereda). They were in contact and despite of full funding from  the girl decided to become the star of russian propaganda.  As I saw in X: "It took the Russians four years of war to find a relatively well-known sports personality to carry out such a propaganda operation."
