    Milan led it out, but hit his limit a bit early. Magnier swung off of his wheel, moving Groenewegen towards the barriers. Magnier started his bike push a bit earlier than Milan, and that was the difference. In my experience, there are two types of sprinters. There's the big track style guys...

    Remember the lady that grabbed Cav's bars in the middle of the final sprint?

    Yates, if he recovers well. Almaeida, Christen (assuming he gets through the Giro unscathed), Del Toro, McNulty, Narvaez (same as Christen), Pollitt, Veermaerke, Wellens. He will be fine.

    Marc Soler transported after appearing to cause the crash from his front wheel washing out. It happens in these conditions. Not his fault. Cepeda is wearing the 41 for EF, so he might be the GC priority.

    Clean finish. Jonas rode super smart. He did not need the stage win at this point, but if it presented itself, he would have gone for it.

    I will be holding my breath on this descent. There's wet leaves everywhere on the climb.

    Horrible. It looked like a wheel touch at the front.

    Yates had one of the best chances to beat Jonas. He's won it before. UAE losing two of their best is not good for UAE. I'm sure that they will be OK after a month but who knows.

    More carnage at the Giro. Yates looks horrible but wants to continue. Smart decision to neutralize. Let's see if they lift it for the finish.

    Jonas looks miserable. No outside bibs today.

    There are racers that have crashed, and racers that are going to crash. That's it. Anyone that has never crashed in their career was never up front enough to make a difference in the race.

    TQ supports their European dealers directly through a webshop. In the US, they have a dedicated support team at QBP. Fazua never did that.
