2013 Tour de France, Stage 15: Givors - Mont Ventoux 242.5 Km

[thrawn]

Cadel goes boom. Quintana has just about caught Nieve.

 

[webvan]

Not gaining much it seems :-(

So why did Bertie tell that BMC guy to calm down when Quintana took off? Odd...

Ah Quintana bridging to Nieve...

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Gesink better than Evans

 

[Hayabusa]

Morabito is dropping Evans haha..

 

[The Hitch]

Froome is not good today (imho)

Froome always does the never look good thing before he sails away. Remember Oman when everyone thought he would fall off his bike, then flew away from Contador as if he was standing still. Or Pena Cabarga he slowed down and spead up all the time.

 

[Publicus]

Froome looks like he's gonna lost 20 minutes today

So he'll only put 2' on Mollema and Contador

 

[burning]

kreuziger looks good

Birdsong is looking cool as well

 

[Geraint Too Fast]

Cadel's clearly got a problem with his bike...

 

[Aristarchus]

Contador has three teammates, I think?

Cadel off the back.

 

[Jelantik]

froome calling the mother ship.... LOL

 

[Frosty]

Lotto rider close to the front? De Clerq?

 

[rmacek]

Neutral bike hands Quintana a bottle, he just ignores the dude and pulls another bottle from the rack, lol.

Of course, he can hold for a second to the motorcycle not stupid, this guy

 

[luckyboy]

lol did Kirby just do an alien reference?

"Froome on the radio. Saying 'beam me up' maybe"

 

[Broth3r]

Evans may be completely done by now, but goddamn, the man is a fighter. Respect.

 

[murali]

nieve watches as quintana moves forward. i just hope tht he can stay on the colombian's wheel.

 

[Scott SoCal]

kreuziger looks good

I think Bertie needs to send him up the road.

 

[burning]

Porte pulling now, Kennaugh is at 2nd spot

 

[Eshnar]

Froome always does the never look good thing before he sails away. Remember Oman when everyone thought he would fall off his bike, then flew away from Contador as if he was standing still. Or Pena Cabarga he slowed down and spead up all the time.

I know, I just called it so in the unlikely case I'm right I'll look like a mind reader.

 

[The Hitch]

So BMC was pulling on Friday for this BS?

reminds me of when Evans registered himself for the olympic tt, then didnt bother riding it so Porte wasnt able to do it either.

 

[roundabout]

Bakelants comes from the Mancebo school of cramped up riding

 

[vcampbell]

I think Bertie needs to send him up the road.

This.

10char

 

[Publicus]

Thinking about BMC chasing when Saxo forced the split and seeing Cadel going backwards (again) makes me mad all over again

 

[Ruby United]

Kennaugh is unbelievably strong.

 

[sultanofhyd]

Quintana is never going to stay away.

 

[ILovecycling]

Only 40s,not good
