ahh yes gaviria, the best leadout in the peloton
I suspect Cav was gifted this win as a a gesture from the other riders. Shows what can happen if you stay away from the barriers! π
Has anyone ever TTβd their way to a GC win on the final day?
14 seconds isnβt much.
Have you not been entertained?
That hug between Cav and Thomas π₯°β€οΈ
It looked to me like they all let Cavendish win and I'm fine with that, he is the sprinting GOAT, he's the Ronaldo of Cycling.(that last bit might be a troll)….Looking forward to seeing how Cav does at Le Tour.
Very stupid crash from Ackermann
this announcer can't go ten words without saying "glory"
you could of at least showed cav on the podium for his final giro stage win
Just like Tony Martin, what a happy ending for Cav…
giro italia 2023 great races
Mooi gebaar
Absolute legend. What a guy G is β₯οΈ
Can't help but feel that every other sprinter eased off just a little bit in the end to let Cavendish have his final career win… hmmm….
Not quite a finale for the Giro. But the Le Tour awaits us. Large tours, must have sprint finishes.!!
It was great to see MC given that honourable win.
It was always going to be PR over GT.
Another fantastic Giro to history
If that wasnt staged/agreed upon i'll eat my cleats.
Top man G. Congratulations Cav!
So cool Cavendish getting one last Win.
Garrett Helping out β€.
G!!! what a legend. Great to see Cav take the win
…but if you close your eyes….
Thomas`s huge dissappointment of Gyro loss only the day before he still managed to congratulate and hug each Jumbo Visma team member straight after and then put all that aside to " in effect " act as a lead out man to Cav ! What an incredible act of sportsmanship and generosity ! The capo di tutti capi of sportsmanship and cameraderie. I`m more than impressed !
Mmm wonder if there was some kind of agreement among the sprinters to send the little fella off with a bang..? Hard to understand that big margin..
A lot of knuckleheads here. Do you all really believe the rest of the teams, with all they invest in a grand tour, would actually agree to let someone win a stage like this? Just remember, the larger the conspiracy, the more unlikely it is to be true.
Team sky moment β€οΈ
I believe that Mark is leaving cycling just because of this, because of he is missing victories, missing the happiness of be the best. He was not filling motivated to keep riding after many crashes.
Excellent coverage of the 2023 Giro d'Italia from start to finishπ
Kudos to Thomas helping out Cav get his 34th win.
We all hope Cav can make history on TDF simply because of the narrow for the sport and if not then he gave it his best shot.
Pascal crashed himself out of the race bro got sent back into adolfs bunker
At :07 seeing that Jumbo Visma guy's helmet jiggling when he hit that bump made me feel so much better about by inability to avoid bad bumps while riding. I don't feel like such a noob now.
Shame Gearing Thomas came up short in the end, but seeing him help Cavendish get a great stage win to cap his career was a sweet consolation.
Cant wait for the Tour de France π
Mark Cavendish reserved the best for last πͺ He came out from the pack flying and a win he really deserves π A race very well organised with a detailed GCN coverage. Congratulations π to
All π
3:14 People say that the other sprinters gave Cavendish the win by giving up. I think that they gave up because he blew them out of the water.
Wow ackermann really embraced this "lets allow mark to win the last stage" , with method acting and all, including crashing out, being fined, and also losing UCI points to cover up letting cav win the stage hahaha clowns
Cheers to d missile
Grandioso …
Thomas is champion and no one cany deny!
holy sh**! That was a legit sprint win. Several bike lengths ahead…
Please donβt let this commentator spoil Tour de France this year.
One of the best Giros ever.
