He's having a really great Giro, given some chances to go off solo and he'll ride in to Cancellara territory.

Other outlets may have interviewed him, too, of course.

He was on Eurosport/GCN being interviewed by Wiggins.

Pretty small peloton...

Did anyone change bike? Was that a myth?

Sagan looking menacing.

All this chat about these roads not being appropriate…give me a break. This is just what we need coming off a rest day. Excellent stuff.

Aaaand, out the back

Evenepoel's bike handling skills being put to the test today.

What's Bennett up to? Can't really see what he has to gain here.

I guess it might just be preferable to Foss. If it’s hectic/risky in that group and visibility is shit Foss may just prefer to be out front (with help)...

...but they’re still sitting in the dust wake of cars and motos.

They’re back in now

Taaramae gives up on a rear wheel swap.

Let’s see how much hurt they can put on Evenepoel...

Remco can't ride grav grav?

DQS can’t ride for GC ?

I’m sure the gravel dads with their baggy shorts and bar bags will be desperate to tell him he’d have been fine if he’d run 1x, 650b tyres and stopped midway during a 20km ride to make an aeropress.

Wow wtf is going on?

Wolfpack radio bitch fight?

Its not a GC team

It was odd that Almeida was just about back to him and he backed off to have a shit fit on the radio

Will Evenepoel do and angry cycle and make it back?

we 100% need public race radios like F1.

Yep. Was he pissed off that Almeida had left him hanging?
