The keys to the 10th stage of Giro: "I want to highlight Landa one day, active and helpful ”

Rafael Carrascoformer professional cyclist and former sports director of the historic Kelme teamexamines the tenth stage of Italy is spinning for DM.

X-RAY OF THE STAGE

Stage where there was a classic breakaway where the peloton didn’t give much time to catch up. They are always under control. The route has a flat first part, but the end is very broken at the leg, continuing up and down. There were attacks and it was shot very hard. 10 kilometers from the finish line, the last fourth category port began, where the peloton broke and it was there that it began to be seen that many cyclists were tired. The end is very difficult. The sprint has been reached. It became a titanic and the Eritrean Girmay got the victory. It was painful that the second classified, Mathieu Van der Poel, greeted the first, in a spectacular ending

THE FAVORITES

They came in a group of 30 and they all came together, but I wanted to highlight Mikel Landa. He is very active and I find him more active than on other occasions. Carapaz attacked hard at one point. Landa was fast at his wheel and the leader, the Spanish Juan Pedro López, defended himself very well. Of the other favorites, little to say, they are controlled and have nothing else to move while waiting for the harder stage.

THE SPANISH

As I said, Landa has been attentive and attentive to his principals in Giro, Carapqaz, Almeida and company. Juanpe keeps the pink jersey and is always in the top position, notice. He endured the pink jersey and with all deserved. And fully fulfilled by Valverde and Pello Bilbao

WEDNESDAY PERIOD

Perhaps this Wednesday is the most flat stage of the Giro. There is not even an elevation on the route. A day for sprinters. Sprinter teams have to work together to finish the day in a sprint.
