## Resource

Who better to hear from than the two commentators who watched every second of the stage from the best seat in the house? Ned Boulting and Jacopo Guarnieri give us insight from right inside the commentary box, just moments after a thrilling sprint on Stage 1 of the Giro d'Italia. The guys break down a commendable effort in the break from kilometre 0, a chaotic lead-out from 5 kilometres out, a nasty crash inside the last few hundred metres, and captivating 3-man sprint to the line.
