2011 Tour de France Stage 18 - Pinerolo - Galibier Serre-Chevalier 200.5km

[Hugo Koblet]

The strange thing is that Iglinsky can still follow, so Andy isn't even going that hard.

I was thinking the same thing exactly!

But look now.. No one wants to lead!!

 

[Aristarchus]

What in the world...Contador gives up on the front?

 

[furcah]

Thats not good for Evans if he needs to work before the steep part.

 

[lilyprotector]

contador's dropped back. wtf??

 

[khodder]

It's starting to come back...

Probably becasue Andy has just hit a gradient a bit steeper than the rest of the Peloton.

Bertie gone, Rolland gone. Evans pulling the Peloton.

 

[Jamsque]

Contador decided not to work after all, and the pace drops again.

 

[goggalor]

Contador leaving it to Cadel? Is he stupid, smart or does he not have the legs?

 

[just some guy]

Evans riding on the front and losing the TDF

 

[RdBiker]

Don't tell me their starting to look at each other...And what the hell is Evans doing the pulling for??

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

evans having to do the work.
This I don't think is good news for him.

 

[Maxiton]

What's up w/ Conti?

 

[The Hitch]

when does this climb get steeper?

Its doenst get above 5.3% until 9k to go. Then it goes to between 5-9% for the rest of the climb until the final km wich is 10.5

 

[Wergeland]

WTF are they doing? What's up with Contador? Riding like a *****.

Rolland has to do the job again?

 

[TeoSheva]

Andy won't be fresh tomorrow. That's for sure.

Great effort anyway, but nothing more, if they should catch him later.
Little windy, so I think it will be hard for Andy to pull this through.

Now the big names start chasing.

for sure not fresh, but maybe happy... and possible yellow..

 

[Ferminal]

Haha Voeckler tells Rolland to stay back.

 

[davestoller]

more negative racing

holy crap

commentators bending over backwards not to say

SCHLECK IS DOING A FLOYD!!!!!!!!

 

[mr. tibbs]

Haha tactics. Burn them all, Andy!

 

[Alpe d'Huez]

I can't believe the chasers are really going to expect Cadel to chase.

 

[Zoncolan]

Voeckler not allowing his teammate work. ****!

 

[khodder]

Smyzd to the front. Basso the only one with a teammate left really.

 

[Ramira]

Over 4 minutes. And they're looking at each other.

 

[Sidbike]

Voeckler super attentive.

 

[Jeanne]

Evans at the front of a group, I can't believe what I'm seing

 

[TimChristy]

This is lame!

 

[Waterloo Sunrise]

Is this pro wrestling?

Iglinsky can follow Schleck.

Thomas can ride to the front of the peloton.


I feel like I'm watching some scripted nonsense.
