Highlights of yesterdays racehttp://www.steephill.tv/players/youtube3/?title=Stage+1+and+2+Highlights,+Cadel+Evans+Interview&dashboard=criterium-international&id=tdnR71QPSeE&yr=2012

Puccio would have won the first stage if Mangel hadn't pushed him into the barriers. Shame for him.

Possibly. Seems like he's a really great talent. He looks quite slim as well, so I wonder how he goes on the big climbs.

 

[hatcher]

He's doing Pais Vasco next, so we may find out. Though no doubt he'll be doing domestique work all week.

I like that Sky are being aggressive with their race programs for him and Rowe. Getting some tough races in early.

He was 6th on the stage that Nordhaug won in Mallorca. Not big climbs of course but still an impressive result for a neo pro.

Yeah. Sucks for him. (And my CQ team)

Eurosport about to go live.

 

[Frosty]

Vogondy, Bennett (Radionshack) and MONTAGUTI(Ag2r) have 3.30.

Montaguti is at 13 seconds on the overall. Cant see much chance of them staying away.

Come on evans!!!!

I afraid BMC are already using up their very few domestiques.

 

[Gloin22]

I thought that yesterday. It was tactically better for Sky not to have leader's jersey today and let the other team bring the break, already having just 6 in their squad.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

I hope Froome is in ok shape

 

[dlwssonic]

How long is the final climb??

It's his first race, so yes He rode first 3 stages at Algarve and the pulled out with chest infection.

Yes, but sports-livez.com just stopped working for me a couple of days ago

oh ok. I think michael rogers or nordhaug is a much better bet for sky. froome is very unpredictable. Eurosport commentator saying the climb suits evans

 

[Vitapen]

How long is the final climb??

14.2 km climb to 6.2 %

 

[dlwssonic]

Btw, sonic, that's the climb and the length of it.
