There is no rest on stage 8 of the Giro d’Italia, with a long 206.6km stage between Terni and Fossombrone. The first 150km are relatively simple but things get spicy on the final classics-style circuit around Fossombrone which features four devilishly steep climbs with maximum ramps of up to 19%.

renco is not a refined climber, it's clear now
Roglič, lets gooo!
Terbaik lah Primo
All that mile remco does goes to waste. Lmfao he is the only pro rider to do long miles for waste.
Pretty sure Evenepoel controlled the distance trying to reserve as much energy as possible for stage 9.. he gonna crush the competition tomorrow I believe
if anyones curious, ben healy did 370w and 390w normalized at 65kg for 33 minutes at the end of the stage to secure his victory. absolute bonkers
Did they do away with the sock height rule?
MR. Lloyd – I have been thinking. We know racers train by power and race by power, but has anyone thought about tactics based upon avoiding fatigue? Did Remco Evenepoel's director put a limit on how much power he was allowed to produce today, so as to avoid losing time to tomorrow's time trial? Are Roglic, Geogehegan Hart and Thomas going to cost themselves more than 14 seconds tomorrow due to fatigue? This would be applying science to tactics.
Fillipo Ganna out with COVID?? Wake up INEOS dont sanction the globalist BS.
Absolutely ridiculous that athletes in such supreme condition are being held out due to Covid positives. Pardon me for mixing politics in with sports but there is no denying that governments are still doing everything they can to keep control by instilling fear.
Remco going for the win tomorrow?
This is why Remco needs Alaphillipe as a super domestique, 100% would have limited the loss on that technical descent. Even if Remco gains more time tomorrow there is scope to lose minutes on stage 13, 16 & 19, those stages are just brutal.
well done to EF
In this planet only Pogačar is attacking rider nobody else ,pog will be destroying giro
Roglic is olimpic champion on time trial ,and roglic wil win the giro
Was hoping that Kämna can go with roglic
Ben Healy what a Season.. Brilliant 👍🇬🇧
I drink most of my cappuccinos at around 7PM
haven't been thrown into jail, yet!
Enjoying the Tao and Geraint double-punch.
Really happy for Ben Healy. It's been coming hasn't it.
Something beautiful about attacking a breakaway with 50km left.
well done ben from Ireland fan
Begorrah, that lad must have had some powerful poteen! 🙂 Good to see Primoz moving closer to the overall position.
Good for him!
Healys sideways helmet is almost as bad as Mancebos
Ben Healy legend
Anyone think Evenepoel wasn’t showing weakness, just saving himself for the TT?
I think Remco may be saving his legs for the TT
Wout did some work today, but we'll see how it goes
Rogla knows that after TT can be difference around 1,5 min but now he knows very well that can be confident in mountains to find difference back. He is much better than Remco in difficult stages. Rogla can be good in TT but not on very flat terain there Remco is better and only there. That is why this year we have 2 flat TT. Only on that way Remco can plan to win and than follow others in mauntains..
Awesome stage! A fine win 🇮🇪
Love the highlights but giving away the result in the commentary at 2:50 is disappointing, not the first time this has happened
Pleeeeeaaase can the commentator tone down the foreign accent exaggeration… I’m not sure even native Italians pronounce “Maglia Rosa” so over the top
A decent voice-over script would trust the pictures, unlike the standard GCN approach (as here). Don't say "They would never see him again." Let us discover.
Ganna out with Covid? Really? When will they drop this nonsense?
it always amazes me how much drogue are efficace this day.
if you'd quit complying with the stupid covid test, maybe you could have racing again.
Roglic what a coward
Great highlights. Good commentary. Thanks Eurosport
Healy impressed…great job amigo.
Garbage highlights. NBC does such a better job.
They need to get rid of these disc bikes , dogshit !
Does anybody know the intro song name? Thanks
each day.
The true and clean cycling is dead!
Está el la misma ciudad adónde está la predio del equipo de Argentina! En Ezeiza #BuenosAirea
ugly looking helmet of ben healy
Congrats to the winner
Longest socks to ever win a grand tour stage!
