00:08Buongiorno!
00:09È molto bello di essere qui, ovviamente.
00:11Ma stiamo rascendo molto bene,
00:13quindi c'è ancora più opportunità,
00:16come oggi.
00:17Abbiamo chiesto il breakaway.
00:20Obviamente, è il giro,
00:22e voglio finire con tutti i tre,
00:24quindi potrebbe essere un'opportunità per oggi.
00:26E vediamo cosa succede.
00:30E qual'è il tuo main rider?
00:32Per oggi, Wout Pulse.
00:33Credo che c'è stata una grande opportunità per il break,
00:35quindi sarà difficile per andare in,
00:37ma dovremmo provare, e poi vediamo cosa succede.
00:41La legge è ancora più pesante,
00:42da l'esercitazione brutale all'esercitazione di Blockhouse.
00:45Un'esercitazione si è infatti a l'esercitazione
00:47sull'esercitazione,
00:48dopo più di 6 giorni di raccoglione,
00:50da l'esercitazione dell'esercitazione,
00:52da l'esercitazione all'esercitazione di Jonas Vingegaard.
00:54Abbiamo già un po' di un'esercitazione,
00:56quindi,
00:58credo che ho recuperato bene,
00:59e la legge si sono molto bene oggi.
01:00Il danese rider,
01:02winner of two Tour de France titles
01:03and a Vuelta,
01:04launched his attack on the climb to Blockhouse.
01:16Dropping a courageous
01:17but overly ambitious Pelizzari
01:19who tried to match his pace,
01:21and then calmly controlled
01:22the strong Felix Gal,
01:24who finished second just 13 seconds behind.
01:27First, I was a bit frustrated I couldn't follow Jonas,
01:30but I think then in the end it was a good choice to listen to my body.
01:34Portugal's Afonso Eulaglio
01:35defended the pink jersey with pride and intelligence,
01:38crossing the line 2 minutes and 54 seconds down,
01:41but holding on to the overall lead.
01:43Those who still have something left in the tank can unleash it in today's stage.
01:48The first part runs along wide flat roads by the Adriatic coast,
01:52before heading inland towards Fermo,
01:54where a relentless series of rolling climbs and steep walls await.
01:58After Cupra Maritima, the race turns inland to tackle two categorized climbs,
02:03first Montefiori del Aso, then Monte Rubiano.
02:06Upon reaching Fermo, riders face the sharp wall of Via Cartarelli,
02:10followed by the Capodarco climb,
02:11home to the renowned international under-23 race,
02:14once won by riders like Rubio, Zana and Hindley.
02:17The final kick from Fermo to Reputolo,
02:20with gradients reaching up to 22%,
02:22offers the perfect terrain for breakaways and bold attacks
02:25from anyone aiming for the stage win.
02:27All eyes will be on local rider Giulio Bellizzari,
02:31racing on home roads.
02:32It's always beautiful to go home,
02:33I feel so much to the fans,
02:34we hope that today we can enjoy it with the sun.
02:37If he recovers from yesterday's effort,
02:39he could be a key protagonist.
02:46The start is nervous, the pace is stop and go,
02:53with many riders eager to break away.
02:55The first attempt involves a group of six.
03:09The move proves to be overly ambitious as the peloton reels them back in,
03:14but immediately Filippo Gana and Alberto Betiol counter-attack.
03:18It's unlikely that a two-man breakaway will succeed,
03:21yet the two leaders work well together,
03:23taking regular turns and committing to the effort.
03:37after 30 kilometers of racing the average speed is up to 53 kilometers per hour.
03:42An extremely high pace,
03:45driven by continuous attacks from riders trying to bridge across from the peloton.
03:49Gana and Betiol, both strong-time trialists,
03:52have the power to hold their advantage at around 30 seconds.
03:55Meanwhile, at the front of the peloton,
03:57there's a heavy crash involving a rider from Team Q36.5 Pro Cycling,
04:02number 112, Fabio Christen.
04:04There's where it happened.
04:05He looked back.
04:06He looked back.
04:07Yeah, I agree.
04:08I think that does look a little bit like Mark Donovan,
04:09but it looks like a shake of the head there.
04:11That looks like a collarbone.
04:12His withdrawal is confirmed shortly after.
04:30At kilometer 53, the breakaway of Gana and Betiol comes to an end.
04:34The peloton catches them and continues at a pace that,
04:37after an hour of racing, remains above 50 kilometers per hour.
04:41A strong headwind with powerful gusts,
04:43makes it difficult for anyone trying to stretch the groove.
04:46The attacks are becoming less and less convincing.
04:49The conditions are not right for a breakaway with real chances of success.
04:53Despite this, the riders keep trying.
04:58We are at the km 74 of the race.
05:03We are always on track.
05:04Now there's a group of 7 units,
05:06but the margin is always limited.
05:11The peloton splits into two sections, separated by 10 seconds,
05:16with Birg, Narvaez and Legnesund gaining an advantage.
05:19Wingegaard's team, caught in the second group,
05:21works to bridge the gap and manages to rejoin.
05:23Now around 20 riders launch a move to chase down the three leaders.
05:30The front riders reach the intermediate sprint in Kupura Maritima.
05:35Legnesund crosses first, ahead of Narvaez and Birg.
05:42The first part of the peloton, about 30 riders, passes 55 miles per hour.
05:43Meanwhile, the climb to the king of the mountains at Montefiore del Aso begins,
05:47and behind them the pink jersey group pushes to close in on the chasers.
06:00The air crests the climb first, ahead of Narvaez and Legnesund.
06:04The first part of the peloton, about 30 riders, passes 55 seconds behind,
06:09while the group with the pink jersey is at 2 minutes and 2 seconds.
06:20The three breakaway riders have found the right rhythm,
06:23and arrive alone at the second king of the mountains of the day in Monte Rubiano,
06:27where Narvaez crosses first ahead of Birg and Legnesund.
06:30They're still leading as they pass under the Red Bull KM banner,
06:34with Birg, Legnesund and Narvaez in that order.
06:37The three laps of the road are at the kilometre Red Bull.
06:42Having a little bit of far better legs than the other two
06:45because of the first half of the stage he was caught.
06:52Meanwhile, Javier Romo has attacked from the chasing group,
06:55trying to bridge the gap to the leaders.
06:57At the Red Bull KM, he is 50 seconds behind.
07:01At 1 minute and 20 seconds, a group of around 30 riders led by Garofoli follows,
07:06while the pink jersey group passes at 3 minutes and 38 seconds.
07:10Among the chasers is also Scaroni, currently 11th in the general classification.
07:15The climb to Capodarko begins.
07:26Narvaez's move is impressive.
07:28He waves goodbye, pushes hard on the steep slopes of Capodarko,
07:32and crosses first at the king of the mountains,
07:34with a 12 second lead over Legnesund and 35 seconds over Birg.
07:44The chasing group, which has reabsorbed Romo,
07:47passes at 1 minute and 40 seconds,
07:49while the pink jersey group is at 3 minutes and 33 seconds.
07:53Narvaez powers up the Muro di Via Reputola,
07:56the final brutal climb of the day.
07:58He crests the summit and flies solo towards the finish line in Fermo.
08:07In a race that could have been a disaster for UAE Team Emirates,
08:10it's win number 3 for the team and 2 for Jonathan Narvaez,
08:16a masterclass, simply unbeatable on terrain like that.
08:26We win! Yeah!
08:32Second place goes to Andreas Legnesund after a courageous ride,
08:36with Ciotta finishing third.
08:38The pink jersey group regains ground and crosses the line together,
08:42with all the GC contenders led by Afonso Lallio,
08:45who retain the pink jersey ahead of Wingergaard at 3 minutes 15 seconds
08:49and Gal at 3 minutes 34 seconds.
08:52The most important for me now is a ride in a rest day with this Maria Rosa, no?
08:57The most important thing is to stay with the Maria Rosa ATT.
09:01Tomorrow brings more climbing,
09:03with a 184-kilometer stage from Serbia to Cornaal Escale.
09:07The route is flat from the start to Silla,
09:09before the final first-category climb that will once again shape the general classification.
09:13It's an irregular ascent with easier sections,
09:17followed by the final 12 kilometers entirely uphill with bends and hairpins.
09:22In the last 3 kilometers towards Cornaal Escale gradients hover around 10%,
09:26with ramps reaching up to 15%,
09:29the final effort before a well-earned rest day on Monday.
09:43four-题欄 at 9000 feet.
