Summary

Last night Daniel Friebe longed for some action from the general classification contenders – today he got his wish with – as he described it – a ripsnorter of a stage in the hills around Turin.

Daniel is joined by Lionel Birnie and Brian Nygaard to make sense of a crazy day which whittled the number of potential Giro champions down to a large handful.

We’ll hear from the Bora-Hansgrohe management team about how they rode themselves into a strong position, we discuss the impact of the heat during this very warm edition of the Giro and we assess the likelihood of a close race for the pink jersey in the final week.
