2011 Vuelta a Espana Stage 11: Verín - Estación de Montaña Manzaneda 167,0 km (31/8)

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

Peloton slowing way way down, they are spread across the road now.

Possoni isn't riding it too hard.
Doesn't look like he can tho, he looks cooked.

 

[Lexman]

Wiggo should either pull or attack. Shouldn't make Froome work for him given how the race is going.

Wiggins attack ? His teammate is the leader of the race... no just ride with them two a decent tempo...

 

[Jamsque]

I think Possoni is going as hard as he can, he's just running on fumes. Really surprised we haven't seen an attack from someone towards the back of the top 10...

And here we go! Karpets?

 

[Moncoutie]

Come on David, keep it going!

 

[Fetisoff]

Karpets attacks!!!

(probably just to up the pace)

Karpets and Moreno, isn't it?

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Karpets, Kruijswijk in the attack

 

[Broth3r]

Karpets paving way.

 

[Zoncolan]

Purito sends Karpets to the front.
Dani Moreno there too.

 

[classicomano]

Come on Stevo!

 

[Ferminal]

About time, Vlad. CAS, Steven and Moreno with him.

 

[Jux1893]

Too bad for Sergio.

Looks Moncoutie is going all the way. At the moment I'm just hoping for 3rd.

 

[Jamsque]

Possoni gone completely, and now Wiggo chases!

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Karpets, CA Sørensen, Kruijswijk and Moreno

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

gogo kruijswijk

 

[Waterloo Sunrise]

Wiggo should either pull or attack. Shouldn't make Froome work for him given how the race is going.

Froome will be working before Wiggins, and rightly so really, despite the jersey.

 

[Ferminal]

Karpets should destroy himself for Moreno here, try and get a couple of minutes.

 

[Broth3r]

Karpets and Moreno... Purito is going to go nuts.

Curious fact the commentators just mentioned: the four are packed together on the GC.

 

[Havetts]

Reynes caught with the escapees, means Moncoutie's got this.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Anton exits once again. Do people still believe in him

 

[canyonball]

Kruijswijk! He's starting to heat his engine.

Red jersey pulling

 

[Broth3r]

Anton is looking worse than Mayo in 05.

 

[Waterloo Sunrise]

Igor's daily drop.

Check in to the 'who will win the vuelta' thread for todays excuse and explanation of how he can still win.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Froome leading Wiggins, but now Carrara takes over

 

[Zoncolan]

I wish they would stop showing Anton. It's painful to watch.
Was expecting so much more from him.

 

[Jamsque]

Anton out the back. He just doesn't have it this Vuelta. His best chance is to go for a break in week 3.

Froome is riding! Getting some help from Vacansoleil and hauling back some guys.
