Gazzetta is being awfully slow with the result again.

Paris Nice is faster with the result and the race finished an hour later :rolleyes:

I've seen him dropping very fast.

Was to be expected after his bad TTT and bad preparation races.
He also got no support whatsoever from his team. Boom was in a great position on the climb, but for what? To show he still can't climb?

I think Kruijswijk told the team on the penultimate climb he wasn't feeling good and they all went for their own chance after that.

Strange. I could have sworn your post number 10000 will involve some BMC-bashing :D:D

Why should he be? Sagan properly beat him. Sure of himself. He was the better rider.

Cycling is an individual sport, remember.

Well now Nibali will be 34 seconds behind Horner, but if Sagan hadn't dragged him back he could've been 28 seconds behind him.

Probably isn't going to take that much back tomorrow anyway, but if he ends up losing by 4 seconds to Horner then he can look to today's stage.
As well as the terrible TTT.

nibali won't be a force i think
also today's time differences are nothing.if one feels strong tomorrow,he can take even a minute.but indeed it will be hard to take time on chris

So what? Sagan should've hung back and let Kreuzinger win, rather than getting a win for the LIQ team?

Lol I didn't even notice.

What, really? What's next, you're gonna say you didn't have a huge "speech" post about the importance of your post number 10 000 like a certain other member on this forum last year did? Shocking, trully shocking :eek::eek::D:D

The only ones I can thank is all the nibali fanboys, the evans fanboys and the anti-dutchmaffia people who really upped my postcount

He's already doing better than Ballan and GVA though :p

The form is coming and once he's there he won't stop :p
maybe he'd better visit Wim Vansevenant before the classics though

Lol Kruijswijk outclimbed by Cam. Meyer :eek:

Brambilla, who would finish 144th according to Jens_attacks, finished 20th... ;)

Colombians a massive dissapointment

Purito didn't finish as far down as I thought, in with scarponi, poels and evans. Hoping for a massive (probably pointless) attack out of him tomorrow

If what Voigt did yesterday wasn't competitive I don't know what it was.

:facepalm: do I have to explain all. voigt can win a stage here and there yeah. but horner can win classics, big stage races and I hope to se ehim really shine in a gt without injury
