A moment we never wanted to comment on
 

This is the moment when Miguel Angel Lopez is forced to abandon the Giro d’Italia.
The Colombian rider had staked a lot on this Giro. Now also the internal dynamics of Astana Qazaqstan Team will have to change, will Vincenzo Nibali become the captain?

was the shark never the captain? dont think so...not with that TT performance.

Here are the 14 breakaway members

Valerio Conti (Astana Qazaqstan), Lennard Kämna (Bora-hansgrohe), Davide Villella, Rémy Rochas (Cofidis), Rein Taaramae (Intermarché-Wanty-Gobert), Gijs Leemreize (Jumbo-Visma), Sylvain Moniquet (Lotto Soudal), Mauri Vansevenant (Quick-Step Alpha Vinyl), Juan Pedro Lopez (Trek-Segafredo), Stefano Oldani (Alpecin-Fenix), Diego Andrés Camargo (EF Education-EasyPost), Erik Fetter (Eolo-Kometa), Alexander Cataford (Israel-PremierTech) and Lilian Calmejane (AG2R Citroën).
8’10” gap for them.

Ha! All the ingredients are there... a larger than average bunch holding a stronger than average rider who could win the stage and, at least for a while, threaten the leader's jersey. I may have to leave work a little early today.

7m25s lead with 25km until the climb starts.

Breakaway should start the climb with a 5min lead, give or take
