Hmm I actually think they got Nibali upfront, but were waiting for Ulissi and Pozzato instead who had mechanical problems.

They want their team complete and let's face it a good Pozzato and Ullissi are riders that will feature in the final.

I don't think Ulissi's bike handling skills are enough for this race.

GB are going to surpass even my most pessimistic prediction. With Thomas and Stannard hanging off the back Froome is all alone with 130km to go!

Some attacks please, it's all set to be a great race. Where are the outsiders like Barguil, Contador, Mollema, Albasini etc? Let's all move to the front and attack please :D
Rui Costa well placed and alone...

Is that really true? It wasn't delayed in any of the other WC races.

For me it is. Not sure if for everyone. I have a 100mb's connection running full.

It'll be ****ing carnage in the last couple rounds if the rain doesn't stop and they really go all-out.
