2013 Giro d'Italia Stage 8: Gabicce Mare - Saltara 54,8 km ITT

[Publicus]

Henao's form isn't that great.

 

[Ramira]

Hmm anyone know what the official distance is you have to keep in a TT? Because Henao seems to be riding either in or at least very close to being in Kelderman's slipstream.

 

[Netserk]

Kelderman and Henao are hilarious

 

[The Sheep]

Kelderman is decent in cornering, just takes a bit too much risks at times like Nibali does.

 

[Panda Claws]

He also doesn't have a mark on his body.

If he did fall, it must have been inconsequential.

He seems to have a fresh wound on his elbow, but it's hard to see.

 

[Descender]

Stunning cliffs as well!

Bella Italia.

Lol @Kelderman/Henao

Wilco Keldernao or Sergio Henaoman?

In the next shot back to them we are going to see them both on a tandem...

 

[cineteq]

Very much doubt it was Wiggins making them wait. He seemed dejected at the time. I bet that order came from the team car.

He's the team captain, he has a say.

 

[spalco]

Wiggins still can't be that fast of people can run alongside so easily.

 

[Carols]

If Wiggo had fallen we would have seen that for sure guys...

I know..geez they are showing 75% of his ride, and if it was during break they'd be replaying it.

RAI showed the crash on replay. It was comedy.

Alright. If that's correct than I take back (part of) my comments.

ROFL



I'm simply dying right now

 

[Winnen]

Gesink and Kruijswijk could still do a spectacular fail on their non 100% itt bikes

One of them will crash. That is for certain. I was surprised at the reaction from team Blanco after yesterday. They think they were riding a superb stage yesterday and the other teams are scared now....

 

[maltiv]

Why exactly? What do you suggest they start doing that they are not doing now?

Start following the rules. A rider who overtakes another ride shall take to the other side of the road. It's not allowed to draft behind another ride, unless the distance is more than 20 (?) meters.

True even if they missed the crash hey still would have shown the aftermath.

 

[DiscoPants]

All those people there to celebrate Wiggins, knowing they are seeing one of the greats of world cycling...

Jesus Eurosport, take it down a notch or two.

 

[Vino attacks everyone]

Go Nibali, attack the road, you crazy sicilian!!!

 

[Publicus]

Evans and Nibbles could teach Wiggins a thing or two about riding through corners.

 

[Panda Claws]

Alright. If that's correct than I take back (part of) my comments.

I'm really not sure, though.

Jonathan Vaughters‏@Vaughters
"I emailed @wegelius 3 days ago and said "Wiggo has the same stomach bug as Cataldo, Sky are just keeping quiet on it..." That's my take."

 

[Descender]

Might as well get some practice while I watch.

Thanks anyway.

Nichts zu danken.

If you have Eurosport on your TV you might be able to change the language.

Otherwise, Eurosport Player is the only option me thinks.
