Huge Missed Opportunity for the Sprinters | Giro d'Italia 2026 Stage 15 Podcast

About this episode

The episode discusses a missed opportunity for sprinters during Giro d'Italia Stage 15, highlighting the performance of Fredrik Dversnes and the challenges faced by sprint teams.

A day that was nailed on for the fast men, and the breakaway defied every expectation. Fredrik Dversnes, on his Grand Tour debut, crossed the line first while the peloton scrambled behind him. Jonathan Milan missed another opportunity. The sprint teams couldn't organise, couldn't cooperate, and couldn't catch the riders up the road. So how many sprint days does Milan actually have left? Ned Boulting and Jacopo Guarnieri report from the finish line. This episode of For The Love Of Cycling is sponsored by Bikmo cycle insurance. Protect your ride before it’s too late.
