Checking the Gap MS20-3
While it was a very long day in the saddle, it wasn't until the final 30 kilometers that the race really got going. This duo of Loic Vliegen (Circus-Wanty Gobert) and Jacop Mosca (Trek-Segafredo) jumped free of the peloton on the penultimate climb of the day, the Cipressa. Trek-Segafredo kept up the agression sending men up the road one after another. By the finale, they had four of their six riders go up the road on the attack. I guess was the thinking was that it would allow for their team leader, Vincenzo Nibali, to have an easier time of it, thus allowing him to be fresher to go for the victory. Spoiler, it didn't work.
