How can anyone not love Nibali? He has his limitations as a cyclist but man does he have balls.

he sucks at everything never attacks and is the most boring cyclist ever. . . a pure wheelsucker.

I always loved Nibali, but just like Contador on the telegraphe, Shark is taking my support of him to a whole new level.

As long as that won't mean you'll post stuff like Nibali can TT round the world in 2 hours and 2 minutes stuff it's all fine with me :p.

My guess is that it'll all come together on the flat to the final climb :).

Looks to be coming back together. Good for Cunego, TGBM and Uran

Edit: But Vince is going great guns.

+1. Think he'll be caught, but love how he gives it an effort.

More to the point, ACF, has Santambrogio blown completely and not been able to stay with this chase group? Thought he was on for one of his 2nds today!

Well BMC have some numbers in the chase group, if they canget organised they could bring them all back for Mauro and/or Greg.

Gilberts group got caught?

I think I see Hernandez in that group, is Gonzalez?

I don't think Gonzalez is any good. I think I caught a glimpse of him on the previous hill, in the back. Hernandez was in the front.

Would also explain why he was so far back in the descent.

But yeah the whole team of Euskaltel is still recovering from Beijing.

The descend is coming up, this is where he has to really stretch that lead to have a good chance...

No, but I will post that Nibali is a better GT rider than Richie Porte;)

As ridiculous as that will sound to some posters.
