What a sprint 

 

Gaviria with his 4th and what an epic sprint it was by the young Colombian

The Gaviria show, very boring

If you found this specific sprint of his boring, you better stop watching sprints at all

Thankfully, they are over now and we can get to the interesting stuff.

Because Etna showed that mountains guarantee a spectacular stage

So, time for arguably the most boring stage of all and a huge slap in the face of Fausto Coppi and Marco Pantani. The Giro is officially honouring those two legends with today's stage (Coppi's birthplace as the town where they start and finish on Oropa where Pantani has his legendary run in 1999), but they're doing it in the worst possible way. Flat roads of nothing, more flat roads of nothing, more flat roads of even more nothing and then a climb where it's highly unlikely that the race will 'explode'. And all that in a weekend....congratulations Giro d'Italia course setters, you've made a complete fool out of yourself today.

Igor Anton's attacks  

[Gianlu33 4,628]

I think that we'll see an explosive final on the Pantani's climb

Kruijswijk smells the 3rd week and suddenly he's getting better
