Sky and Liquigas, teams whose responsibility it should be to bring back the break, must be laughing their holes off at these clowns.

Omega for Vandenbroeck then...but RadioshackProtecting Brajkovic 234243th place or what
Omega for VDB but Roche is six minutes behind and they have Bakelants & VDwalle in the break...or VDB might try something on the climbs...
Radioshack might do it for the team classification perhaps?
dlwssonic said:Tiago Machado of course
LOL, would love to see that.
They're probably just working to put someone on the break. Only 2 more stages left and they have nothing to show for other than Paulinho's 5th place in one stage and his combativity prize in another.

for their sponsors, ofc. I could just image the tongue lashing in the team bus before the start of the stage.

Zubeldia and Irizar are basque, that may be a reason - otherwise it could be the penalty for not being represented in the break just as well
Radioshack is hours and hours behind in the team classification. They have as much chance of winning that as I have winning the lottery todayLexman said:
Lotto got Bakelants and Van de Walle in the break. They are protecting Vdb's GC spot too hard. Maybe they are thinking of Reynes??
Most likely their just getting face-time at the front. A few slots on next year's team still up in the air?
Maybe they know Sky aren't going to bring the group back, and their only chance of winning the stage is to bring it back themselves.
the talent is talking about giving robbie mcewen one last chance of a major victory. highly unlikely.
This is what Froome said at today's sign-in.BillytheKid said:
"Most of the Vuelta is over. I’ll try and stay out of trouble and see if there is an opportunity to win but I doubt it."
Trying again... this time in the proper thread...
Eeeh... How come Kristof Vandewalle is listed as not being on any team? He is a QS guy, right?

Jesus Christ, just another reason to dislike Bruyneel and all his works. Unless of course it all kicks off on the climb because everyone is back together, in which case I'll forgive him this particular crime.
The Hitch said:
What I want to say: if you have an ITT on the final days, all riders will ride expecting that stage.
But this year in La Vuelta, time trialists had the chance to recover time lost on the first mountain stages, but bad trialists had the chance to recover time lost on the ITT: I think it´s more challenging!
That said, I have no doubt that an inform Contador will leave an in form Evans behind on any ground (and I like very much Evans)
Mollema, Froome, Wiggins, Cobo all in the front row of the peloton.
