episode 51: Stage 5 | Modena - Cattolica | Giro d’Italia 2021
Stage five of the Giro d'Italia was one for the sprinters but it was marred by a series of nasty crashes that saw one of the favourites, Mikel Landa, have to pull out of the race – we hear from his sports director, Franco Pellizotti.
In this episode we speak to another of the crash victims and the previous day's winner, Joe Dombrowski, and to Simon Yates' director, Matt White. There's another instalment from our diarist, James Knox, and Daniel and Richard pay a visit to another Marco Pantani memorial, the marble near Imola.
Finally, we explore the myth of Italy's most popular rock star, Vasco Rossi, in the company of Daniel Oss and Giovanni Aleotti.
