[Cancellator]

Isn't there a penalty for riding behind a car like that?

A fine probably... they only did it for a minute though right? Doubt they would get into any trouble.

 

[vcampbell]

Okay, now it was Stetina or Hesjedal? It's really confusing.

 

[Pippo_San]

IT's Stetina....

Now I feel like I'm colourblind...****

It was really Stetina...

There wasn't for Phinney in stage 2..... I think they are a bit more lenient when it's because of punctures etc.

Pink vs White with a lot of pink... and Blue helmets. I'm finding it hard to know as well.

 

[woodie]

Surely Hesjedal should get some kind of penalty for this.

Technically it's against the rules and can lead to a fine or DQ in extreme cases but it was a mechanical so they are usually pretty understanding. Depends how the comms feel more than anything

 

[Moviefan1203]

Come on Stetina get back there!

Yeah, that one won't work for me. Oh well, Italian it is. Thanks.

Me too. I'm making myself dizzy with watching 3 different sports at the same time. That Queens Park Rangers shirt made Stetina look pink when I for the third time in 5 seconds turned my head on my flat screen to watch Giro

The maglia bianca is pretty pink itself apparently. It was Stetina all along the way. Explains the lack of help though.

I have seen it back, it was Stetina (98).

 

[Fetisoff]

OK. I'm guessing the worst that will happen is they'll lose 20 points in the all-important fair play classification then

 

[Random Direction]

ok, who just went farming for hay?

Pink vs White with a lot of pink... and Blue helmets. I'm finding it hard to know as well.

Ryder has a pink helmet actually. So now we can tell them apart.

 

[Pippo_San]

ok, who just went farming for hay?

Daniel Schorn, Netapp

Why were they (NetApp) invited in the first place? What did they did so far?

 

[Fetisoff]

Why were they (NetApp) invited in the first place? What did they did so far?

About as much as Farnese, if not more

When the results graphic comes up when the stage finishes, you'll see "NetApp" at the bottom of the graphic. That's why.

Just wait for Barta to win the Giro, and all your questions will be answered.

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Let's hope Kreutziger is upto this pullinf from Astana

[Moose McKnuckles]

Is Cavendish still in Denmark?

 

[rxgqgxnyfz]

Gaspa is working a lot in the head, like yesterday.

No thoughts about the stage for himself.
