I want to see how Remco goes in the next 2 weeks, he has been out for a while and I wonder if We could see him getting better as the race goes on. Also if he can keep the time gaps reasonable between himself and Bernal he wins it on the TT. Could be a very interesting Giro
Bernal needs at minimum 60secs of advantage over Remco going into last TT. H
why the hell is trek segafredo’s team abbreviation TFS? it’s driving me crazy

I guessed it was Trek Factory Segafredo (like the Trek Factory Racing XC team), but now I only want it to be Fregasedo!

Many of the team abbreviations are nonsensical…Ineos-Grenadiers is IGS, for example.
But as noted, the “F” is for Factory in TFS.
WTF that was a hard crash 
Snapped his forks in half. Jeez landed head first too. I´m surprised he could just get up. Let´s hope his head is ok.
Damn. Now he is wheeled off on a stretcher. What a nightmare crash.
Really sucks for Bahrain. Loosing their top two riders in just a few days.

Is there any way to watch the Giro in the U.S. other than a paid subscription to GCN+?
My man Ciccone was looking 
. Only one who came close to Bernal today. 
for the big mountains.

Man, for as strong as he ws, Bernal was pogoing like a man losing time…but he showed again he is clearly the strongest rider in the race ATM.
I think the answer for Yates is clear…he is lacking the form to go with the best. Yet another handful of seconds lost. Can he find that extra little bit in the next 2 weeks and still contend?
Ciccone continues to impress…but he’ll be marked now. No chance to slip away and gain time. He’ll have to slug it out at the front of the race with the best guys.
I’m really beginning to get annoyed by rob hatch. Talking (and shouting) over Sean and the others, ridiculous way he exaggerates the pronunciation of rider names, teases stories he never tells, mentions politics, and don’t even get me started on his “ayyayayayay” outbursts. Idk how Sean puts up with him. Probably why he needs an hour break during a 5hr broadcast just to get away from this clown

The same annoyances here with Rob Hatch. Specifically the rider names. During the Tour de Suisse every time he said Sonny Colbrelli my ears bled a little bit.
The Rob hatch thing that annoys me most at the moment is the way he repeats things. “Rider down, rider down”, that sort of thing. Once I started noticing it I can’t stop.
You could always use Tiz cycling.
Idk, Rob Hatch is my favorite main guy out of all of them. He’s way more coherent than Carlton, and I think his calling of finales is the best in the biz. That said what you want from a commentator is personal, and you may like things that I do not.

lol I love the way the commentators could not care less about getting the names right. The worst one I’ve heard so far is Alexander Valverde.
My personal favourite commentator is Carlton Kirby, especially on the long, more boring stages. Even better if he sits together with Dan Lloyd. The Banter is just amazing.
