Summary
Spencer Martin and Andrew Vontz discuss the ongoing Giro d’Italia, debating whether the race has successfully designed an interesting modern course and, most importantly, whether it is providing a safe racing environment for the riders and teams. They also discuss the GC situation thus far, and check in on Jonas Vingegaard’s assumed GC victory, which has already run into more resistance than anticipated thanks to Decathlon’s Felix Gall.
