FUBO?

Bugs abound and bugs go round, but wondering if Sunweb has their own chef?

Its not a bug, he is not sick, nor are his teammates. Under heavy stress his bowels give trouble. Last Tour the France he had the same. His cimb and decent where on par with the rest of the field. But some heavy days ahead, the rankings are not set. If Tom stays in contact he still can make up time sunday, tt day.

There's no question that he climbed well. And took back time after the--uh--evacuation.

D day today, short stage not a meter flat, ending up mountain. Nibaly could make a move in the last decent.

Today's jaunt.

Bit toothy, wot! Long descents before the climb to the arrivé. That last pitch has got to hurt.

Smart ride for van Garderen for a stage win. Been painful watching this seven day racer go for 21 in Europe. Tommy crowing a bit in the post-race today but now 5 guys within 2'. Kirby has tuna pizza but without the pineapple. Good grief!

Strange stage. Dumoulin was to strong, two more stages to go. What will Nibaly and quintana come up with...? Still expect dirty tricks. Dumoulin had no teammates and still they expect him to cover all attacks.
Talk afterwards was not friendly anymore......

Attacking during a pee break....

Rochas stayed wuth dumoulin and give a sign when Tom was peeing.....

Everybody having a bit of a dig getting up the 14% grade to Piancavallo. Except Landa? Astanashing! Sky's the limit! Mollema and Kruijswijk observed throwing a bit of moral support Dumoulin's way. Not quite national team-style collusion. Maybe a shame there wasn't! And make way for Pinot, eh?

And for US fans using FUBO app thru COMCAST's cable conduit, what's up with the intermittent dirty video signal and service interruptions all the way thru the stage? No pixellation, no weather affectng the airborne transmitter, no problems at all on RAI's or EUROSPORT's end. But the final 1.5k and the post race was uninterrupted and HD vid clear as a bell????? Ya think COMCAST is effectively sabotaging their own US distribution? I do.

Close call now... Could go to all 4 guys. Maybe yesterdays minute will be enough for pinot, being the best TT man compared to nibaly and quintana. Dumoulin looked bad, quintana and nibaly also had nothing to spare.

Tomorrow again some mountains, should give some changes again.

If Pinot retains form tomorrow, the TT could mean Niibbly off the podium. I don't count him out until he's thrown out and that won't happen in the Giro until he's caught riding IN the team car.

Certainly don,t last year he got it also in the last stage. But I really don,t know now, nobody looked strong anymore, dumoulin surpriced me after yesterdays much stronger ride.

GC after stage 20:
Quintana
NIbali +39"
PInot +43"
Dumoulin +58"

I got Dumoulin as virtual leader in the starthouse tomorrow. Hard way to win even if you are odds on fave on past performance. A lot could go wrong.

Strange close race after so many stages. The "toilet" situation made it this close.

Tom has to win, so indeed lots can go wrong. They all looked tired though.
