The Jumbo positive is none other than Steven Kruijswijk, damn. I wouldn't be surprised at all if Sunweb's positive is Kelderman, considering he's actually doing good and didn't have his usual bad luck yet.

If it's Kelderman, after Kruijswijk and Yates (and Thomas' misfortune), I'm switching to Vincenzo Nibali actually being from a place where voodoo magic is real

Wow, all of Mitchelton-Scott has withdrawn.

Honestly I'm starting to think that it could be better end this Giro...

Who could have expected that a peloton of 160+ riders cycling together for hours and hours while spitting around and yelling in each other's faces would lead to some positive cases?  

 

I wonder what Vuelta organizers are thinking at the moment.

Positive are fastly grow in Italy, we have +4000 cases at day... I don't think that have a popular race, like the Giro, around Italy is a good idea since in every single country that the tour crosses there are always so many people

How convenient that Tour de France had no such troubles whatsoever. 

[Gianlu33 4,574]

Rumors in Italy say that Sunweb will withdraw all the team. Only speculations for now

[heywoodu 15,145]

Michael Matthews is the Sunweb rider.

To be fair, the Tour de France seemed to have been much stricter in terms of protocols and such, as for example shown by two positives meaning you're out, whereas in the Giro even four positives doesn't mean you're out unless you decide so yourself.
