Heartbreaking for Narvaez...hero effort!

[@roughcutguitars]

Thought I'd learned as many times as I've seen it happen, but surprised how gutted I was for him.

[@anthonyhuber-permanentlyre7808]

Just heartbreaking, you could tell the spectators were for him. 😔💔

[@AshKetchhum]

Sucks but POG just returned the favor from Stage 1. He was going to win until POG spiced up the chasing group.

[@Mike-rm1lb]

He already has his victory at the Giro, so he's in a comfortable position to gamble here. Don't pity him.

[@justincrediblelife]

[@BreakawayB]

That was *INSANE!!!* 🤯

[@kennykaniff]

I had 2 picks for the sprinters at this Giro. Merlier was my number one pick and I said Kooij will win 2 stages. Now that Merlier has crashed and is hurting I absolutely expect another stage win from Kooij. I saw him beat Merlier earlier this year and that was made me keep an eye on him. He's going to be a force to be reckoned with in upcoming seasons. VISMA has never been much for sprints but they will be now. They have such a strong team that they can split up their goals between GC and points classification with this lad Kooij. Brilliant bunch sprint!!! 🤘🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

[@oscarbarquincaloca5762]

​@@zojazaman9272 Maglia Rosa shouldnt even be in the middle of that bunch. That was just revenge and a not so smart movement. A crash at 60 kph and Pogi goes home

[@thisishowthetruthdies684]

Seen a ton of these. I think hardly anyone is ever rooting for the sprinter's teams. Narvaez is going to have a hard time dealing with it when he knows there were times in the run-in that he could have gone that 0.5% harder.

[@Liofa73]

Payback.

[@teacherhomieg]

Exactly he could have stood up at about 100 meters and sprinted for his life. But he remained in the drops.

[@tychoMX]

@@teacherhomieg It's faster to TT on the drops without surging. It's only faster to stand if you can accelerate and "drop" people if you haven't been giving your all for the last 5 minutes. If he could stand and sprint it would imply he wasn't giving his all for the last 3 km and saving something for the finale - but it wasn't the right thing to do here because no one else was there to share the work. He's not a sprinter per se, so probably better for him to wind up things as fast as he can and stay as low and as smooth as possible. After the run-in, probably he would have just stalled if he tried to stand up. He just gave his all... and wasn't enough. Still chapeau.

[@charliedillon1400]

@@tychoMX true. likely he would have blown up if he tried to stand at that point. At the limit. Hero effort.

[@lloydhlavac6807]

Yeah, when you've been off the front alone like that for so long trying to stay away from a chasing pack and win the race, your legs are on fire, so there's really nothing to be gained by trying to stand up and sprint. He was already giving everything he had.

[@tychoMX]

@@lloydhlavac6807 exactly. From long-ish efforts at maximal effort (think a time trial on a course you know well), you often don't win anything by standing at the end if it's a steady high-speed finish. It just means you didn't go hard enough before and gave up some speed beforehand.

NBA Basketball. But most cycling fans will tune in for the last hour depending on the stage, or watch the entire broadcasted portion if it's a one-day classic.

[@byggerEttSlott]

I just keep it on in the background and enjoy the scenery while I’m cooking or whatever. And then watch the last hour more intensively

[@teacherhomieg]

Why didn’t Narvaez stand up & sprint for his life those last 50 meters?? He had a fighting chance. Just stayed on the drops like it was inevitable for him to be caught. Too bad. Maybe he was spent?? Tough way to not win the stage.
