2011 Vuelta a España - Stage 13: Sarria - Ponferrada 158.2 km (2/9)

maybe sagan is in the group.

or maybe nibbles wants the time bonuses at the end.

Or they do not want Moreno & Nieve to gain time either?

 

[Moncoutie]

Anyone know where Sagan is?

 

[roundabout]

Less than 3000 inhabitants.

1M€ per stage. If the split between start and finish is 50/50 it makes 166€/habitant. A bit expensive, I think.

1M seems a bit expensive.

Here it says 150 000 for a TdF arrival and departure.

probably yes. as moreno + purito is dangerous.

like I said earlier, I'm sure most teams do not like nnieve and moreno up ahead.

 

[c&cfan]

where is sagan? no eurosport or decent internet.

 

[Greenflame]

Cant see Nibali winning the sprint. Probably want to help stop the break get too much time.

Nibali is defenitely not winning. They probably fear Moreno taking too much time. They'll want to keep it at less than 2 minutes I think. For the stage, I'd say Capecchi has a good chance if (when) the break stays ahead, so nice racing by Liqui today.

Yeah, Nieve has won a hard stage in the vuelta last year and that mammoth climbing stage in Italy this year.

Sky have two riders hiding at the back of the pack, Lovkvist and someone else.

So why is radioshack working?

 

[DJ Sprtsch]

No idea. Hasn't been mentioned, and there is nothing but commercials in the stream

 

[Zinoviev Letter]

Roche and Seeldraeyers are helping out on the front of the break, unsurprisingly.

 

[Fetisoff]

So why is radioshack working?

Cause they are a team of ******bags

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

So why is radioshack working?

moreno, seeldrayers, roche, cas and nieve can all threaten Braj's top 10 hopes.


anyway they aint making great ground. i think break wins.

moreno could move up a few places and threaten mollemas combo jersey.

 

[Ferminal]

[Fetisoff]

working for leopard.

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

I tip bakelandts.

 

[Christomir]

Madrazo? Why?

 

[roundabout]

Capecchi, maybe Roche. But the group is too big to stay together til the end.

 

[Fetisoff]

Come on guys, stop being silly. Sastre will easily outsprint everyone here

 

[trevim]

Albasini has a pretty decent kick and I haven't seen him doing much work in the last kilometres.

 

[wirral]

They've reached the flat bit now. Watch the gap come down.

 

[goggalor]

Sky getting an easy ride here.

This. 10 char

If they've any sense, the GC men who don't have a sprint kick will drill it on the front of the break. But yes, the gap should shrink.
