2012 Giro d'Italia Stage 18, San Vito de Cadore - Vedelago, 24th May, 149km

Cav had no chance, first time I've seen that I think. Don't know why he was so upset at Guardini the finish.

 

[Parrulo]

Cav pretty fast showing his bad loser side once again.

he is simply faster then you cav, deal with it.

the king is dead, long live the king

 

[UpTheRoad]

Cav was put in perfect position for the win. 2nd wheel with a few hundred meters to go. Guardini just beat him straight up today.

I don't understand what Cav was moaning about. He had a clear line throughout.

 

[fluffkitten]

Guardini. Wow, nice acceleration. Good sprint in the end.

 

[hrotha]

Wow, I seriously wasn't expecting Guardini to have anything left in the tank by now. I imagine this Giro will help him immensely with his endurance.

 

[happytramp]

What's Cav giving out about?

 

[DominicDecoco]

Absolutely no reason for Cav to bollocking Guardini.

 

[Bernie's eyesore]

Cavendish just doesn't have it anymore. I'll be surprised if he ever wins again.

 

[hfer07]

there we have it- AND THE CAV FANS WANTED TO SPEND THE COLOMBIANS ENERGY FOR THIS USELESS RESULT



ps: hope they'll pick up on this one for the tour on what must be a priority instead of wasting the team on ridiculous causes

 

[The Sheep]

I jinxed cav by betting on him

 

[cineteq]

Great sprint

And look at Cav moaning about being beaten!!

Such a bad loser, not even congratulated the winner

 

[kjetilraknerud]

Cav complaining about that? Guardini followed the white centre line the entire sprint and kicked his a**!

 

[WinterRider]

I think I might have timed it perfectly today. Woke up, saw the intermediate sprint at home, hopped on the bike and by the time I got to work and got the feed going, they were at 400m.

I'm pretty sure I saw everything I needed to see today

 

[shalgo]

Amazing. Who ever thought we'd see another sprinter of whom we could say, "He's faster than Cav, but can't handle a tough, long stage as well as Cav can."

 

[Gloin22]

Cavendish just doesn't have it anymore. I'll be surprised if he ever wins again.

Lol. Obviosuly he will Nice he got owned though

 

[therhodeo]

I'm not a Cav fan so I'm not the first to defend him but was it really Guardini he was mad at?

 

[CasperVg]

HAHHAHAHAHA

Guardini sprints in 1 straight line to the finish.

And still Cavendish is frustrated. What a moron.

Some frustration was probably to be expected though; it seems Sky had to do too much work today and therefore he had too little support in the last few km's. Thomas was tired it seems, Cavendish had to go from too far. Still, impressive speed by Guardini

 

[Waterloo Sunrise]

Who else had Guardini for the win in the GT prediction game...

Lol at all the 'new dawn' comments - same every year. Surely after last year's tour sprint Guardini has to be Griepel to prove he's fastest.

 

[FoxxyBrown1111]

Proud to have him, Guardini picked for this stage 4 weeks ago...

 

[max_powers]

No Class Cav

 

[burning]

Well cav got beaten pretty badly there but it is not like that his career is over that some of you guys are thinking

I didnt like his moaning at all, wtf man

 

[Caruut]

Why is everyone assuming he's mad at Guardini? There are a hundred things that look around could have meant.

 

[UpTheRoad]

Cav went left, Guardini went right and won and Cav is upset at Guardini? Was it another rider who he was mad at?

 

[ghostofjoy]

I don't understand what Cav was moaning about. He had a clear line throughout.

it's like some of you have never competed in anything. cavendish is just showing his general frustration with a second place finish, not directing it at guardini. just like a tennis player smashing his racket.

 

[burning]

I think he's mad at himself that he missed the stage
