    [Music] [Music] stage 13 of the Jed Italia saw Riders sign in under sunny skies with the wind blowing in the background richon was the start on the Adriatic Riviera as a few Riders had family in town others hoping to have a quieter day after the chaos of stage 12 the pan flat or padina flat stage in Emilia Romana now Ajo staple 179 km for this onear stage but the threat of Crosswinds all day meant that the Riders would be nervous the stage would start in Bron and finish in chento not far from bologna no king of the mountain priz is here only 200 M to climb in the whole race one of the flattest stages that these Riders would ever ride in their careers Bacha was still in the pink jersey Milan wearing chick Ino with Tiberian white and looking after the MS Jersey for Bacha will be the German zimon Gesa lots of questions wondering what would happen when the flag was waved a pretty simple answer an attack from three Italian Riders from second division teams one from paa Andrea Petro bon no stranger to the breakaways with taroi and tonelli riding for V group bani they were the local team the emilano team with tarzi himself riding to his hometown of by inza along the Route 3 minutes 20 seconds was the biggest Gap Le Trek alongside sudal quickstep and alaa kerik did most of the work to chase things down it was a relatively relaxed start first intermediate Sprint came and went and the most of those points behind for the main sprinters at least went to Jonathan Milan extending his lead in the points classification at the Intero 1 minute 30 the Gap halfway through the stage or just over and behind Kaden grov turned up for business Milan leaving this one alone Gro taking a few points back into the final 63 K around a 90° turn coming out of a town the wind blowing and the inos grenadiers lighting up a stage surprising Those Behind Le Trek were caught out Jonathan Milam will be put into a second group domino poovo in trouble as well in the G classification soon the race would split not into just two groups but three Milan and his team not panicking though riding behind to try and bring things back at the front they were still trying to open the Gap 10 km in we still didn’t know whether it was coming back or going out they got it to within just 6 seconds but around another corner and that Gap extended again it was 20 km later back in another town 43 1/2 km to go when everybody could finally breathe a sigh of relief the nerves were abound though another attack this time from mareli he was followed by the poter and another two Riders off the front they’d get 30 seconds of a gap with 30 km to go the normal nervous crash that you get often in the stage happen behind certain Riders down including will barter problems too for aan costu a little bit of a panic coming back on thankfully everybody would get back on 26 seconds for the two Riders In Front 18 km to go and the Sprint teams once again in control with 15 km left to the line in chento depotter would leave behind ma luzi looking for the most combative run prize mareli caught back as GC teams started to approach the front of the race and compete with those looking for a Sprint Victory the poter adventure ended with 9 km to go inside the final 5Ks things really got going a series of twists and turns where you always had to be in the front 30 positions to have any hope of doing something at all sud quickstep were riding pretty well ala kerning had been up there jar Lula had their lead out men produced and they had them well positioned Sprinter not so much then came Le Trek into the final kilometer one by one their men would fade away after doing a big turn it was Sten then it was turns and when it came to the turn of konni there was an attacker finally they saw the Finish Line in sight and what is becoming a trade Mark move from Fernando gavidia a long old Sprint Milan was straight onto it though on his wheel and yovi’s kofidis bouse was there as well a few sprinters way out and left behind Groves out the game meder made it but didn’t make it to the finish and Milan making it a hattick three victories at this J an ironclad grip now on the Malia chiclamino 110o lead with both mad and Groves at outside the top 10 gavidia early go not making it Milan first anel kovski second and a third place in the end for Phil balous of Bahrain a brilliant fourth in the end for Fonda fifth place went to OA three up indeed for leel Trek only one team has won more than them this season a 22nd victory of the year for the American team a celebration with his nearest and dearest for Milan and the UAA having more wins and now Milan with as many wins as pachad in this jeto there’s the top 10 da inside it notable by their absence both M lead and gross Jonathan Milan zipping up the Mia chiclamino as long as he makes it through the mountains he will now be the hot favorite to hang on to it until roome for the second year running 110 points Groves on 174 behind Med lead on 9 23 in third place almost 200 points behind tachar can celebrate another day in pink no changes in the top 10 in the general classification despite those worrying moments with the splits in the wind going into the time trial the second and last time trial it’s 2 minutes 40 in front of Martinez 256 ahead of gine Thomas and now 31 km against the clock on a flat time trial for the second time in this race they all face each other and the watch the race of truth will take them to Lake Garda and finishing in Des insano delard home of one of the big sponsors of the Jiro Grano cheese Riders well matured by this time in the race stage 14 is one of those that will be key to the overall outcome and you can watch it live and On Demand on Euros sport on Discovery plus and for

    1. I wish there would be a world tour stage race with no sprint or obvious sprint stages, leave that to track cycling. Grand tours were developed for endurance not being super fast for 5-6k total.
