Chronometer, Alps and Hell’s Grappa
Italy’s race is eight days for Primož Roglič It took place excellent, the ninth day brought the first serious crisis. Macadam stages are always hiding favorites for favorites, and this time the Slovenian champion was the one who had an abundance of resin. In the fall, he may have grabbed the brake lever too fast, but if there were no pierced tube, we would talk about the excellent struggle of Roglic today.
So for the strong Isaacom del Torom It is almost two minutes behind and half, for Juan Ayus A good minute less. Giro is just beginning, but Roglic is now waiting for an offensive, no more defensive tactics. It will be difficult against the diverse UAE Emirates cyclists, but in the end, as always, the legs are decided.

10. Stage: The fight with the stopwatch is Roglic’s trump card
With 28.6 kilometers, the chronometer in Pisa offers a long enough route for the power of cyclists to express. After a day of pause, the chronometers are always afraid and trembling of cyclists, there is no place to re -heating and acclimatizing the competitive rhythm, and the wounds left by the Tuscan macadam will have to remain in the rearview mirror. At the plane chronometer, Roglič would have to gain at least a few seconds against Ayus and Del Toro if he raced as at the first fight with the stopwatch, the difference will be even greater.

11. Stage: Who will fall into an ambush?
The transition stage is perfect for surprise. The ascent to the Alps San Pellegrino will decline the majority: 13.7 kilometers and an 8.8 % average slope represent a hell of a test where the differences between the favorites can occur. The question is who will have enough courage to attack 90 km ahead of the finish line? After the descent, two more climbs follow, with a successful campaign, the Giro can be placed upside down.

15. Stage: Monte Grappa
After a cycling show in Gorizia, the caravan will again take the Monte Grappo. Anyone who escorted the climb last year knows that this is an endless ascent that lanish feet and psyche cyclist. Then a long descent into the valley and another, 16 km long ascent to Dora, from where there is another 30 km of vibrant road to the destination. With more than 200 kilometers, this will be a stage that will reveal all the flaws of cyclists in the fight for a pink T -shirt.
