163: The Grandest Tour stage 14: The Prosecco time trial
With Daniel serving a one podcast ban (not really) for defaming an entire nation’s pronunciation of the words ‘pasta’ and ‘risotto’ it’s left to Richard Moore, Lionel Birnie and Ian Boswell to recap the Giro d’Italia’s time trial to Valdobbiadene in Prosecco country.
Ineos Grenadiers will have plenty of reason to pop the cork on a bottle of the fizzy wine after Filippo Ganna and Rohan Dennis took first and second place in the stage. For the world time trial champion Ganna it was his third stage win of the Giro.
Then came the battle for the pink jersey and Portugal’s young contender João Almeida extended his lead to Wilco Kelderman to almost a minute. But what does this mean for the Giro now and does it mean the other favourites, including Kelderman, Pello Bilbao, Vinceno Nibali and the rest have to consider being more aggressive in tomorrow’s mountain stage to Piancavallo?
