Ye for once, Cancellara got support at the front end of a race.. Doesn't happen all too often.

Visconti drops the chasers. Huzarski seems to be going pretty strongly still.

 

[melkemugg]

Visconti looks dashing

 

[jens_attacks]

well done giovanni!smooth as hell

 

[saunaking]

Huzarski looks like a linebacker!!
great ride

 

[kingjr]

visconti does what canellara should have done.

 

[Netserk]

Visconti to catch him on the descent.

 

[Netserk]

It almost always pays off to be in the early break at the worlds.

Depending on their availability Nibali and Pozzo will be Italy's leaders next year.
Moser perhaps the wild card along with Ulissi.

Giovani Visconti should be italies leader for that course, as he can handle the ascents then do well in the sprint.

lol what? Visconti won't be able to handle neither the climbs nor the distance. this will be tougher then LBL and GdL. nibali and cunego should be the leaders for this but since they won't call cunego to the team nibali and ulissi are probably the best bets.

I'd give Visconti a chance in the U23s.

Nibbles will still do far better than Gio

Kissing ones own **** is a rare trick indeed.

Visconti is a nobody compared with Cancellara. No one would have let him go like that.

 

[Armchair Cyclist]

Why can Boardman not say the word 'descent'? 'DEEscent' is not English.

Doesn't matter just overpower them. Need to find someone first who is strong enough to chase.

 

[Flamin]

Belgians accelerating on the descent?

If it's that easy maybe it's just that Cancellara doesn't want to win

Has static.sportresult stopped for everyone else, or just me?

Didn't think Bettini would even select him, to be honest.

 

[sucotash]

Huzar you are amazing today

Same here

The great irony is, La Florecita was the only one last year saying this wouldn't be such a select worlds while me and everyone else were saying its for gc riders only.

She was right

probably

@Armchair cyclist, for me too


Edit: back now it seems

 

[Shardi]

That short ramp seems pretty rough.. Can cancellara hang on to rodriguez et al at that ramp?
