We are on the eve of the 109th Giro d’Italia. A Giro where Jonas Vingegaard starts as the absolute top favorite, where Thymen Arensman will try to make a bid for the podium and the Unibet Rose Rockets make their Grand Tour debut.
In this episode of In Het Wiel we look ahead in detail. Niek Goedvolk discusses the course, the teams and the favorites with Roxane Knetemann and cycling reporter Daniël Dwarswaard.
Who is Vingegaard’s biggest challenger? How realistic is Dylan Groenewegen’s pink dream? And will Wout Poels complete his trilogy?
Of course, we have also hidden a few gems for your Giro pool in the episode and we will answer the questions from our own Giro prediction campaign. Also participate via ad.nl/cycling and win great prizes!
