2013 Tour de France, stage 18: Gap - Alpe-d'Huez, 172.5km

[More Strides than Rides]

GPS hasn't been very accurate. Gaps are not what they appear

 

[the sceptic]

Froome got this imo

 

[maltiv]

Think they'll get caught actually if Movistar keep going.

 

[The Hitch]

AC changed bike due to bike testing after the finish?

Yes definitely

All bikes will be controlled

 

[SafeBet]

You don't get rid of Moreno that easily.

 

[roundabout]

The gap came down fast

 

[Scott SoCal]

Why are the excitement killers on the front again?

Quintana wants to win the stage. Waited too long.

 

[b.broadhurst]

down to 5.30, gps not working?

 

[Vino's Mum]

AC changed bike due to bike testing after the finish?

There's no way he's just changed to a heavier bike.

 

[hfer07]

so..... I foresee Froome going full *** with 5k to go to win the stage

 

[Afrank]

I know I hope he takes it, what a win in a WT race on a "mythical MTF" it would be, do you think they can hang on?

Riblon hang with Tejay? Not a chance!

 

[Scirea]

Told you they were going for the stage, not the podium.

 

[Rollthedice]

Between Quintana and Froome.

 

[GroupDK]

dobbel.....

 

[Scott SoCal]

Nairo gonna drop a bomb at the bottom of the Alpe.

 

[ThirdWorld]

it is funny. Ac did not want to change bike in the ITT yestarday, but change it in the end of the stage...

 

[Dutchsmurf]

so..... I foresee Froome going full *** with 5k to go to win the stage

Nah, 4km to go. That is where the barriers are starting. So better attack there.

 

[LaFlorecita]

Please anyone but Froome for the win

 

[thrawn]

Go Jensie!

 

[Christian]

AC is back on his tagged bike, tactical move.

He actually had two tagged bikes, France 2 confirmed with Philippe Mauduit. This is usually prohibited apparently (again according to France 2)

They must have expected a bike control at the finish and have 2 tagged ones to throw off the commissaires

 

[murali]

voigt with moser now

 

[wwabbit]

Break's got this... I think

 

[b.broadhurst]

they are not climbing great at the front

 

[l.Harm]

Voigt!
