    And we’ll see if matinez can stay with him let’s see how long it is before Lander plunks himself back in the saddle and stops this drive he’s holding it out there as long as he possibly can and gets besit once more uh that is Martinez with just behind him vlasov tucking in

    Behind them is Chris Harper uh just guiding up Egan Bernal who’s here Bernal can sometimes turn it on from a situation such as this and that shout on MAA who’s just dragging up uh at the rear not going to get involved in any of the attacks as T Bacha heads on pennant

    Man whistleman doing his job here almost karate chopping as he does so there’s a group just behind Caron there’s two riders coming up and there there’s a group of about a dozen Riders just behind them this is clear that the pace is out this they’re not helping each other no

    They’re they’re racing each other they’re they’re taking pagach out the equation even if all six roads or all five CU how Ms they are even if they all roads um they’re not going to catch him so this is a case of right I’m trying to you know think of the other Rivals um

    Trying to get onto the podium nice to see that Landa is shown this form and and rightly so Martinez just wondering what who’s in this group just uh just behind whether they can come back because is this a stop start racing for the U the six here big oranda

    Has got a little bit of a gap at the moment against Alexander vlasov who is really coming back into form that’s great to see Lenny Martinez maybe his busy start to the season and great success is just having a toll on him right now and land is determined he goes

    Again G just uh getting themselves out of the way as he tries to just knock off the nose of every single one of these apexes and Lander is determined here and this is great not quite sure what the Gap is we’ll be picking up with tal batcha as he finishes shortly but it’s

    Nudging up to I think it’ll possibly be around about the minute Mark at the end certainly with factored in bonus second as well but vlasoff is doggedly staying with Lander here and I think he might mug him at the end they go by the 2ks to

    Go marker and if it is a minute it may well be a margin of about 5 or 600 M to delip Patcher at this sort of pace Lander still going for it and vlasov still staying with him he’s going to half wheel him in a few moments time and

    Get into his head I believe uh mounted surface here as you can see slightly cut up Frost fractured at it has been but blowing it all apart this race T Bachi is the impressario he’s gone for IT cameras here in Spain of course staying with ML Lander even if we have the

    Opportunity to see more of T Pacha up the road they want a successful run for Lander those watching on the phones not realizing just how quickly they are approaching here just watch it in the old style with your eyes that be a nice thing um they’ve got some twists and

    Turns still to have but Telly Pacha is bringing this home home a brave effort by Lander but I fear for him that Alexander vlasov is going to have him here Brian this SPS well for Evo I know he’s not here but the fact that the Lander shown this kind of form in this

    Race you got to remember he was taken on by sadal quickstep um to help B Paul uh in a France and if he’s on this sort of form he’s going to be some a considerable amount of help well the motorcycles are one thing but um you kind of feel it’s t pach is

    Uh he almost rides like he’s on board one phenomenal just waiting for him to come around the Headland here and uh and uh reveal himself uh can’t see him just for the time being those are the security bikes going through I don’t think he’s been through just yet but uh

    Um not that long to wait the hairpins just raining down upon them like Hammer blows those who are chasing on still Lander is the main pursuer um shaa just struggling to keep up for the time being in fact he’s now in a a trio of Chasers Alexander vlasov here is getting a free

    Ride on the back wheel of ml Lander doesn’t have to go through because Lander just wants to I guess make a statement for his own team apart from anything else oh that’s never a good sign when you’re trying to shake the feeling back into your fingertips Brian it’s cold and that’s a big

    Display yeah it’s but you know we’re we’re almost there you know we’re inside the last 2 km I think for land’s just looking behind to see what damage he’s done last off I can’t I don’t think can offer too much he’s he seems to be kind of hanging on

    He’s not prepared to work at all Lander does look good um but just you’ll be interesting to see you know what he’s looking at who’s who’s um who’s just behind but pachan must be you know close to the finishing line now he must be um but uh the uh our

    Spanish picture providers here uh not picked him up just for the time being and finally here he is T poacha genius at work it’s up to a minute now we understand from raced radio that he has an advantage as we suspected it might be well he’s kind of

    Used to doing this what he did in stal biani so far this year third place in San Ramo second of course on only his third day of racing don’t forget yesterday should have won it could have won it didn’t win it and so today he wanted to do a Strada and he has

    Absolutely stro away from absolutely everybody this is his game and everyone else is here By Invitation Only it seems Dy Bater is in charge he’s in the lead and by an enormous margin and don’t be surprised if he only goes and wins it again tomorrow fabulous effort by this man today tomorrow

    And forever it seems in charge this is genius at work watch that clock everybody else in his wake and a wake up call to everybody he’s on form Brian that’s dangerous yeah big big statement there I know we had so many interviews today that you know was it

    Going to be about pater and a lot of them said there’s a lot of quality bike riders in this um this race and there are but he’s just blowing them all away BL Up’s going to come round Lander I just feel it but uh let’s see he’s uh

    He’s doing he does look exhausted I have to say of the PA of them Lander looks best it’s like Grimace from him he’s already displayed the fact that he’s got losing the fingers in his uh losing the the the the sensation in his fingertips here that’s never a good thing you start

    To get that awful freeze cramp in your in your the end of your uh your fingertips but Lander does have this by the looks of things unless vaso’s going to pick it up and cly dig very very deep land has gone away to finish in second place here and that is a fine

    Performance by Mel Lander BS very well for Remco aaple if this is his super domestique he’s on super form as well Z petcha has the day he has the race lead and he has a margin of a minute and 22 at the line that is phenomenal plus

    Bonuses as well Blas off closest to and here comes seus just bouncing around the corner and it’s but it’s also around places for for these guys I’m afraid Ameda comes across the line to make it one and four and Martinez just tucked him behind him is Chris Harper crossing

    The line right now Egan beral just stamps on the pedals to get to the line and it just shows you as well as there were some chases and enic mass was part of that Brian yeah Mass was the one of the Raiders that was distance and and was

    Climbing um strong towards the end this is Walt po Rubio uh seus also in there I tell you what that that’s probably the the hardest Ascent I’ve seen in the history of wter do M that that the peleton had just shattered the conditions made it hard but I just think

    The the uh the ride by Pacha just blew everybody away and the they’re in they’re all over the place canana y Lawrence DL it’s just been a dominating performance and everybody has gone deep no halting T pater in his progress this year is just phenomenal minute and 23

    Indeed he takes that’s his Gap to Mel Lander plus of course he has the additional 10c bonus for winning six uh seconds bonus for Lander and 4 seconds for vlasoff uh to be trimmed off their their times but tanache is well and truly in charge blaso Almeida Martinez

    Harper Bernal Mass PS and Diaz that’s how your top 10 rang in but top of the pile is dy Pacha

    1. Pogacar will win the Giro after Stage 11 and then use rest of the stages as training rides. Wouldn’t be surprised if the last 3-4 stages they are recovery rides.

    2. Cameras refuse to do close ups of the emotional face which is why races on media are boring, monotonous. And no closeups of bike logos? Come on! You are totally missing another fascinating aspect of bike racing. Thumb down for this elementary error.
