Summary
Graham and Brad are back with a full pod and, well, there's a fair amount to catch up on. Since the last pod, two whole teams have departed the Giro after coronavirus chaos forced Mitchelton-Scott and Jumbo Visma to up and leave.
As Brad notes, the race is looking more and more precarious with each day that passes and the chances of getting to Milan look in real jeopardy now. How many teams can withdraw before this race has to be brought to an end?
On the racing front, Arnaud Demare made it four stage wins with his victory on Stage 11, and Graham and Brad look at the mistakes made by Peter Sagan in the sprint finish which allowed the Frenchman to triumph once again.
Meanwhile at Scheldeprijs, Mark Cavendish returned after his emotional interview at the weekend when he suggested that he might have raced for the final time. But uncertainty still surrounds his immediate future, with Brad believing his old mate has been "f***** over" as he tries to prolong his racing career...
