I do miss the ITV Vuelta highlights. The music and Gary Imlach’s broom cupboard mainly.

ITV would have struggled with highlights from the opening two stages. It's been an absolute turd of a race so far.

Let's hope that the fact that Enric Mas is the best placed of the GC riders who can take the red jersey today, livens things up, at least for @Mickie_Cricket

Enric Mas is the best placed of the GC riders

Weird way of spelling Romain Bardet

He's said he's not riding for GC, he's been very clear about that ahead of the race.

Ineos using one of those stupid not-Land Rovers as a support vehicle with bikes on top is so ridiculous. Probably takes an extra minute to get them off the roof. >>>>>>>>>

It pisses it down every year the last week of August. The reason why the city centre roads were flooded is because corrupt government officials steal the EU infrastructure money.

Conditions at the finish line are not scorchio

They’re not as bad as they were for the downhill

Remco made that look easy

Oh shit he crashed

lol, maybe he actually cant see?!?!

He forgot to turn off the hidden motor.

ah he found something to complain about

Wondering what organisational calamity will befall the riders tomorrow. Ninety degree bend just after the finish line?

Cattle grids on the finish line?

He forgot to turn off the hidden motor.

Sections of Tarragona castle wall to bunny hop over before the finish line?

Mickey fucking Mouse of a race.

when do gcn + put up the days highlights. Can't seem to find them from todays stage yet

Egotripping chest thumping vs spanish finish line 0-1

He'd just won a stage, is he not allowed to celebrate?

Remco should be fined for that conduct. He clearly could have stopped in time. Swans around the place as if waves will part.

Think it's quite late around 22:30

Agree

Lending Remco the jersey for a few days is fantastic tactical nous by Mas
