Die 31-köpfige Fluchtgruppe harmoniert ausgezeichnet und hat bereits einen beträchtlichen Vorsprung herausgefahren. In dieser Spitzengruppe unter anderem dabei sind Andy Schleck, Jakob Fuglsang, Jens Voigt, Michael Albasini, Christian Vandevelde, José Rojas Gil, Peter Sagan und Rubens Bertogliati.

All that's known at this point afaik.

Bit early to say, they still have to start the first proper mountain pass.

Weather looking very bad indeed.

Rojas is flying

 

[taiwan]

Rojas is flying

If he's going that well he won't be a bad candidate for teh Green Jersey at the Tour.

 

[Ryo Hazuki]

this move is probably to set up frank for the downhil after the final climb with andy or fuglsang who are much better downhillers. would be great if soler bridges up on the first climb just to show who's boss

 

[Ryo Hazuki]

actually it doesn't look rainy at all to me.

 

[dlwssonic]

dont understand the ticker. it say 5 breakaway riders instead of the 30 you guys said.

 

[Havetts]

Andy Schleck, in a breakaway? Before july, what am I seeing?

Weather is subject to change, you know, Einstein.

 

[taiwan]

Nah it says a chase group of 5.

 

[dlwssonic]

Nah it says a chase group of 5.

so does it say who are in the big break.

 

[Oreknan]

these 5 guys get dropped from the main breakaway says biciciclismo

 

[taiwan]

so does it say who are in the big break.

Nope. People must have been getting names from another ticker.

 

[just some guy]

Does anyone WTF is going on ?

Robert Hunter, Daniele Righi, Rinaldo Nocentini, Thomas de Gendt and Rubens Bertogliati.

are chasing or dropped from a group of 30 is that correct

also gap now 1.50 is that correct ?
