Eduardo Chozas: "After the first week, Landa and ‘landism’ seem to have revived"

Former professional cyclist Edward Chozas –Which caused controversy over ten editions of Italy is spinning between 1981 and 1993, with two top ten and three stages of success– examining the keys to what has happened so far in 105th edition of the Corsa Rosa and what might happen in the next few days.

“After the first nine days and the stage where all the favorites have to remove their masks, the in block housewith a very difficult ending above, we see that there is a definite equality in the Giro, although it seems Landa and the ‘landism’ they came to life again when they saw him fighting Carapaz Y Bardetwhich seems a little better than the other favorites, especially Almeida, which is a reference. There is still equality, with the top ten in just one minute and 7th Landa in 29 seconds with all the options in the world. Many meditations go through many stages to try to win one, for example Alexander Valverde; Movistar if they go to the general classification, it is a bit difficult or from now on they will try to win a stage and then the rush comes.

What’s left for Giro? A very special mention must be made to Juanpe Lopez because staying in the lead after Blockhaus is a litmus test and he manages it for 12 seconds, and he will continue to lead for a long time for the route remaining. And this is what we’re going to talk about today, what’s to come this second week of Giro. A week for some classic type of stage, some rest again for sprinters and also some ambush stage, where someone three or four minutes away for a breakout can provide another chance. in general classification, to end the week on another mountain stage similar to the Blockhaus, that of Rivarolo-Canavese Cogne with high end. Another great mountain day where Blockhaus could happen, with five or six equal runners and some allowing because it’s the second week of the race. And we’ll talk about the final fireworks, because after the second day of rest we have the Mortirolowhich is hardest in Giro and everything else that there is marble and the final test in time, but this is another point and will be followed which we will discuss later.
