Ah, the TV director didn't see enough bad details yet, so let's show more close ups!

 

Seriously, does this director have no soul? Eurosport commentators meanwhile making very clear they don't control what's being shown, the fault here lies entirely with I presume RAI. Then again, we all know the images of Wouter Weylandt bleeding from his head while dying on the road and the director happily zooming in on it from helicopter view. Assuming that came from RAI too.

Slightly disappointed these Italian TV people didn't try to interview Evenepoel while he was being treated down in the ravine

Il Lombardia today, let's see if anyone can threaten the sky high favorite (based on both common sense and the bookmakers odds), obviously Remco E. 

 

It's rare to see someone be this much of a favorite in a monument, it's bizarre to see it for someone making his debut

 

Glad you and your "superpower" are back in full strength

DNS for Roglic in today's final stage in the Dauphiné. Meanwhile Kruijswijk is unsure for the Tour de France.

Meanwhile in Poland...pretty understandable a lot of riders were pissed off in the Tour Bitwa Warszawska  They didn't expect cyclocross this time of the year

Hopefully just a precaution for Roglič.  Sets up a good battle for the overall though.

Epic drama in the Dauphiné - the two  Martinez & Lopez battling it out with Pinot  for the overall...Pinot getting lots of help from French riders on other teams, some big favours being called in.

 

Meanwhile Seb Kuss  is going for the stage.

Pinot get a lot of help from motorbike

Was too much for Pinot in the end, got the gap down to 10 secs - well, dodgy GPS timings anyway - but Martinez fought back.

Now it's Kuss blowing everyone away, Jumbo-Visma had a nice little COVID break, jesus
