For now, Jiro is in your handsor after a time trial on a marked area this Saturday and excellent exhibition this Sunday raising his hands alone in a symbolic ascent to Mottolino4.7 km at 7.6%, maximum ramps 19% and finish at an altitude of 2385 meters.
It was six hours of strategy in which he did not attach much importance to the various initial escapes and the pursuit groups that formed. He did not cross the road either before the Mortirolo Pass or before the Foscagno Pass. because that wasn’t part of his plan. He and his team controlled the entire race from the peloton, dressed in pink, fully knowing that he would be the main character.
And what they were numerous escape attempts. The first, which has almost 170 km to go, has been formed group of 13 runnerswith a pursuit group of more than 40 people. Pogacar and the peloton were 5 minutes apart. on the first descent.
The first 12 people disappeared to join the pursuit group. but another attempt to escape, this time less consists of only 6 cyclists, cause excitement before Mortirolo, in which not much actually happened. It was a nice step without much change.
After passing the first big test, the escape became strong. For a moment, she thought she could succeed after seeing this. Pogacar showed no signs of life.
Among them was German Georg Steinhauser (EF – Education), who had 20 km left to try his luck. He did not allow him to enjoy the holiday in the slightest. Nairo Quintana (Movistar) unleashed, which easily surpassed the German and alerted everyone. He had rhythm and power.
But of course, With Pogacar behind, things get more complicated. The kilometers became longer, and 3 minutes of distance over 15 kilometers turned into 3 seconds.
This was another outrage on the part of the cyclist. what do you want to quote with the story. Pogacar beat Quintana with amazing ease and raised his hands again alone after massive growth in which he was the center of attention. Surrounded by people who supported him. The Giro is doomed after another Slovenian exhibition.
