2013 Giro d'Italia Stage 10 : Cordenons - Altopiano Del Montasio 167 km

[saneguy]

Dont think the break can survive the last climb. The first climb itself would take a lot out of them apart from the technical descent. Should give enuf time for the GC guys to catch up with the break.

What's the gap?

4:15 about 15 mins back. Should have crossed 5 by now I guess.

5:20 according to cn live ticker

Now it's 5 minutes and 23 seconds accordingly to Gazzeta.

Edit - 6 minutes, 72 km to go.

Guys, I know you probably know this, but just to make sure: not every Portuguese (is he even?) or Machado fan is as annnoying/oblivious as that other dude who's been spamming in the past few days.

Just making sure.

[wirral]

Tiago Machado to take the Giro in a stealth move.

p.s. That guy has been spamming for the last couple of years not the last couple of days.

I would pay a lot of money to witness Luca Scinto's pre-race tactical briefings. Still can't comprehend their riding.

 

[Pulpstar]

Its in Astana's interests to let this break stay out there to the finish due to negation of bonifications is it not ?

Correct. It's up to Sky, Garmin, Blanco, BMC, etc to bring them back.

Sky is trying to spend all doms on second train,oh dear

 

[SafeBet]

Nine men astana train.

 

[Netserk]

Astana with the whole team on the front. Sky just behind.

 

[One Eyed Aussie]

Where is Bmc? All other teams up front.

never mind just seen them near.

 

[manafana]

the descent should see the gap go up it suits a small group over peleton very narrow, you would need 2mins plus in break half way up final climb at least as theirs some killer steep parts.
