WTF is wrong with Ulissi??

He should have emptied himself pulling from this group and instead he just sits there and asks CUNEGO to pull???

did he seriously do that? i like the kid but if he just did that he is getting a "bit" ahead of himself :eek: doesn't lampre has a DS to slap him back to reality? and isn't cunego man enough to do it himself if needed?

Meh, the break aren't really gaining anything on Rabottini, the péloton have pulled a couple of minutes back there though. This one's probably coming back together. The péloton and the chasers at least. Depends how Rabottini goes on the last climbs.

OK, this one's for Italian speakers out there watching Gazetta feed. What did they just say about Rujano ?

I haven't heard the commentators mention him. Maybe I missed it.

EDIT: I'm with Gazzetta. What feed are you using?

So no chance for Cunego to gain back serious time?

Could be conserving himself to be a man up the road for Scarponi?

I think Eurosport is extremely premature in declaring Rabottini the winner already.

So I guess if anyone out of the break makes it and garbs the stage win, it would be Sella or Cunego? Or if they get caught, I'd say one of the two Sky Colombians FTW. I just don't think people like Basso or Scarponi will go for a decisive stage win yet (Basso never goes anyway LOL); people like Hesjedal surely won't have the legs for a second straight day; Purito may have them, but I just don't trust him. So, if it's indeed one of those two Colombians, is it possible the team lets Henao go for the stage win, rather than look after Uran?

He finally moved to the front, pulled in a half-arsed way for like 15 seconds then flicked his elbow to Cunego who was right behind him, pulling to the right as he stopped pedalling.

Cunego of course was like WTF and just stayed in Ulissi's wheel.

It's always been pretty obvious that Ulissi is an arrogant jerk. Remember last year with Visconti?
