00:00Ha il gioco per il gioco, e la torre d'alto!
00:04E' un'altra volta, un'altra volta, un'altra volta, un'altra volta,
00:08un'altra volta, un'altra volta, un'altra volta, un'altra volta!
00:09Vandapol, che un'altra volta!
00:12Bene, ieri le gambe sono buone e speriamo di andare meglio tutta la settimana.
00:20Sono emozionato, è la gara che ho sempre visto, fin da quando ero bambino,
00:24e sono contentissimo di essere qui.
00:27Now, the spotlight turns to the sprinters,
00:31as stage 3 is perfectly suited to give them their first real opportunity to fight for the win.
00:38Starting in Cortona and finishing in Magliano De Marsi,
00:40it's the longest stage at 221 km,
00:45and Abruzzo is preparing to welcome the riders.
00:51It's a major chance for the fastest wheels in the peg.
00:54No one will give a metre to their opponent, elbow to elbow,
00:58until the final rush.
01:01For the moment it's ok, only stage 3 is going on its way,
01:06but I think we were quite lucky yesterday with the weather,
01:09so I'm really looking forward.
01:13The last kilometre is slightly up, it's the most important kilometre,
01:17and it's going to be really important to have the space to move up and launch the spring,
01:21so yeah, I'm really looking forward.
01:28I felt good on the bike.
01:31Today it's a good opportunity for me to sprint for the victory.
01:36the sprint looks good for me, a bit uphill,
01:41so it's a nice idea.
01:51we're trying to control the ramp,
01:55and then we'll see.
02:06The road ahead is long, but there's one man who isn't afraid.
02:10Despite already having the fatigue from yesterday's 160 kilometre break away,
02:16as soon as the group begins to move,
02:18he launches an attack once again.
02:21It's Diego Pablo Sevilla,
02:23who demonstrates he hasn't lost the fighting spirit that always accompanies him,
02:28and that he's actually hungry for redemption.
02:35In toady, after 81 kilometres of racing,
02:39the Grand Prix of the mountain arrives,
02:40allowing him to earn points for the green jersey.
02:44His goal for the day is to be the first to cross that finish line,
02:48and take the overall lead.
02:54We're just getting started.
02:56The group isn't reacting for the moment,
02:58allowing the Spaniard to take the lead,
03:00and after 35 kilometres,
03:02he finds himself managing a lead of almost five minutes.
03:08The asphalt is wet,
03:10and the riders are donning their rain jackets
03:12to protect themselves from the rain on what has once again been a rainy day.
03:18Meanwhile, Sevilla continues his solo attack,
03:21and reaches the climb leading to toady.
03:23His lead over the peloton has shrunk,
03:25but his goal for the day has been achieved.
03:29Spaniard crosses the mountain classification first,
03:32and with the five points he's earned,
03:34he takes the lead in the climber's classification,
03:37thus snatching the green jersey from Anderpol.
03:40For the Spaniard, the job is done.
03:51The stage is long.
03:53The rain continues to fall.
04:01And the peg, after reacting to Sevilla,
04:04is moving at a regular pace.
04:08In this situation, it's better not to take unnecessary risks.
04:12Those that will inevitably arise in a high-speed finish,
04:17and those in the competition between the squads of sprinter,
04:21which are already sharpening their weapons,
04:23in the view of the final sprint.
04:26A first sprint, however, takes place in Cassette,
04:2957 kilometres from the finish line in Magliano de Marsi.
04:32At that point, the intermediate sprint takes place,
04:35awarding points for the cyclamen jersey,
04:37and the seconds bonus for the overall classification.
04:41And Roglic is still in there with the shoulders,
04:43and Rog picks it up again!
04:44Unbelievable!
04:45Here's the sprint.
04:46Into dust here, let's have a look.
04:49Still, they haven't turned.
04:50Del Toro have fully assumed it,
04:53but we get there in the end.
04:55Danny Van Papel, Andrea Vendrame, Isaac Del Toro.
04:59This is the passage under the banner of the intermediate sprint.
05:04Del Toro earns a second in the overall classification
05:07and shows how important it is for him
05:09to defend his lead in the classification at every point.
05:27We enter the most delicate phase of the race
05:30as the sprint begins many kilometres before Magliano de Marsi.
05:34At the head of the pack, they fight shoulder to shoulder
05:36to take positions to defend the leaders
05:39and to claim their own space in a very tense competition.
05:44The road is still wet, and you need to stay alert
05:46when travelling at the tempest of 60 kilometres per hour.
05:54So it's well blocked.
05:56Just try to keep Pierre there at the front as long as we can.
06:00Teeth, the tension rises to its maximum
06:02while the ranking men try to keep themselves away from the dangers.
06:09Ineos, Alphazen Premier Tech, Soldau Quickstep, Decathlon and Lionel Trek
06:14are lined up with their blocks in the front positions
06:16and are ready for the decisive acceleration in view of the final stretch.
06:21Stay there, now is a Trek need to lose some riders to close the gaffa.
06:26They control each other and mark each other tightly
06:27on this endless straight that leads to the final rush.
06:30The tension is at its maximum.
06:33And here comes the final kilometre
06:34with Lionel Trek trying to take control of the operations.
06:37Bill Lund, who's going to have a dig here.
06:39This is absolutely phenomenal.
06:40It's Godmusten who's leading him in.
06:42Who else has got something to take out of this?
06:44Jonathan Milan hits the centre.
06:46Tonga, risking that invisible ice cream.
06:48Is he going to help himself?
06:49He gets the line.
06:51He can see now what lies up ahead of him.
06:53Big response coming through here by Lund.
06:56Is he going to lunge up the centre?
06:57Looks like he might well get there.
06:59This is absolutely phenomenal.
07:00What a win!
07:08Tobias Lund Andressin signs his perfect sprint,
07:11winning his third of the season ahead of De Lille, Philipson, Magnet and Garcia Cortina.
07:18Jonathan Milan starting too early in the final sprint finishes seventh.
07:23This is the verdict of the first sprint of the Tirreno Adriatico.
07:27Lot of experience.
07:28I think it's a combination of great management
07:31and a good group of riders who are able to race.
07:34Oh, fuck it over!
07:36Get off!
07:36Get off!
07:38Get off!
07:38Get off!
07:39Get off!
07:41The sprint did not change the overall ranking.
07:44Isaac Del Toro remains in the lead of the classification,
07:47wearing the blue jersey with a four-second advantage over Pellizzari,
07:5214 seconds over Sheffield,
07:5418 seconds over Hatterley
07:55and 19 seconds over Roglic.
07:58It was a super long sprint and I didn't know where was the final
08:02because I don't see too much.
08:09Tomorrow, another long stage awaits the Tirreno Adriatico.
08:14Riders.
08:15Starting in Tagliacozzo and finishing in Martin Sicuro,
08:18the route is challenging.
08:21The course starts with steep climbs before finishing with a rolling sequence
08:24of ups and downs in the final kilometers.
08:27It will be complicated for the sprint to organize their way
08:30and for the others to try a surprise,
08:33but one thing is certain.
08:35There will be plenty of ground for attack.
08:44The routing of other mechanics is basically enough to run the arrow lines.
08:44To get your arrow lines offới and the struts move.
