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

[Ferminal]

Here is what Italian cycling fans think of wiggins

Nice flag.

 

[the delgados]

Sir Brad is finished

He's training for the Tour of Oman.
Look out for Hesjedal. He's gonna repeat.

 

[Magnus]

Henao and Kelderman should be disqualified.

Giro organizers should be disqualified for having 1 minute splits on a 55 km tt.

 

[Roude Leiw]

I very much doubt there is such thing. Why do you want a German stream?

because he speaks the language and i said that the german ES is far superior to the english one?

 

[One Eyed Aussie]

Might as well get some practice while I watch.

Thanks anyway.

I do exactly the same with Spanish. Happy if anyone can give me a Spanish stream.

Viele danke!

Pardon my ignorance but Who's the clown commentating next to Sean Kelly? annoying the least

The worst commentator ever. Bradley Wiggins' twin brother Declan Wiggins.

 

[Ramira]

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

Not saying he doesn't have any influence. But I doubt the team car waited for Wiggins to tell them before making Uran and Henao wait. Wiggins is the leader the second he's in trouble everyone will be told to wait for him, regardless of what Wiggins himself has to say. To call him selfish for something that is the logical move (waiting for your leader) feels like going to far to me.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Scarponi fantastic

 

[Winnen]

Scarponi!!

 

[burning]

Great time by Scarponi

Good bye wiggo

 

[The Sheep]

Scarponi with the 3rd time

 

[Eshnar]

Scarponi ahead of Wiggo in a ITT
Now I've seen everything

 

[Publicus]

Wow. Nice ride from Scarponi.

 

[gerundium]

Holy Scarponi batman.

 

[maxmartin]

Phinney is sick not in good shape, Nibali much better TTer than Ryder until proven otherwise. My outside pick is Alex Dowsett

Go nibali, wearing the pink

 

[iZnoGouD]

stream? stream?

 

[Netserk]

I think Nibali will have the best time after the first time check.

 

[Juan Pelota]

anyone got a link to a good stream?

 

[spalco]

stream? stream?

[Publicus]

MAybe there is something to Vaughters speculation about Wiggins being sick. But then that makes Sky's decision to sacrifice BOTH Henao and Uran yesterday all the more bewildering.

 

[Miburo]

Blanco might have decided the winner of the giro

It's obvious that the first part is for the climbers. The second part should be real interesting.

 

[Rechtschreibfehler]

Scarponi third at the intervall only 30 seconds down. Obviously the first part of the TT isn't for the specialists really. Scarponi.... he should be more than a minute down by now if things were normal. But so should Henao and Uran.

 

[Aristarchus]

I thought Wiggins was vulnerable, but wow. He could very well be done, at this point, because he sure isn't showing much on the small climbs we've seen.

The issue here is that he knew something was wrong and he kept quiet, so did the team. That's why it's so disgusting.

 

[Don't be late Pedro]

Then the next shot both of them on a unicycle...
