Om episode
The first of a trilogy of difficult stages in the Giro d’Italia took the riders from Diamante to Potenza. Join Daniel Friebe and Lionel Birnie outside the busy Barmacia as they unpick the stage and explain who the powerful diamond of the day was. We dissect the stage and look ahead to Saturday’s race in Napoli with Blockhaus looming on the horizon on Sunday. We hear from Hugh Carthy, the leader of the EF Education-EasyPost team about his Giro so far and what he expects from these three stages. Patrick Gamper of Bora-Hansgrohe explains how the team plans to support their quartet of potential general classification contenders. There’s a guest appearance from Ciro Scognamiglio about authentic Neopolitan pizza, the Giro del Bufalo, plus classification corner.
