2013 Tour de France, Stage 2: Bastia - Ajaccio 156Km

[Pentacycle]

Ya, hate it when a late attacker manages to stay away from a charging peloton and take stage+maillot jaune.

The action was nice, but it's surprising how bad a riders can win stages in the TdF nowadays.

 

[cocteau_ireland]

Always looks great. A screaming, charging peloton denied on the line.

 

[movingtarget]

Was Kwiatowski 3rd?

Yes he was.

 

[Gubby Allen]

Sagan looked third to me. Would like to see the side on.

 

[Carols]

Much better stage than I expected.

It was a darned exciting stage for the final 1/2

 

[cineteq]

Both British and German Eurosport got it wrong.

So did TV5, is it France 2 the same feed?

 

[Dazed and Confused]

A perfect stage in the first week.

90 minutes of great entertainment.

Kadri, Europcar and FDJ making the race.

Bakelants!

 

[ILovecycling]

Wow incredible win!
Cannondale had no riders left,Garmin should start riding earlier

Still interesting attacks on the climb.

 

[Bye Bye Bicycle]

Every stage not won by Sagan is a good stage.

 

[boladelmundo]

That's Irizar finishing now

CN reporter was watching a different Tour, perhaps
Glad that Jan Bakelants managed to win it
Full of surprise this tour is but it will never be as big as had Froome won this stage though..

 

[the sceptic]

Only swedish eurosport got it right it seems

Yea, because we only want bggest rider winning stages. Hell, why dont just Sagan,Cav Froome and Contador ride the Tour by themselves...

 

[Gubby Allen]

I opted for Kirby over Liggett. Did Phil call the right name in?

 

[Aditya]

RST get Yellow. Now who would have thought that before the Tour began.

 

[Konovalovas]

Both British and German Eurosport got it wrong.

Swedish Eurosport spot on as always.

 

[ILovecycling]

I think froome has just demonstrated that be doesn't want to win like a robot. This could get very interesting

Yea thats good,I like it,it should be a very interesting race

 

[movingtarget]

I opted for Kirby over Liggett. Did Phil call the right name in?

No he went with the computer as well.

 

[Dutchsmurf]

Sounds like almost every commentator got it wrong as P & P got it wrong aswell

Sporza got it right.

Sounds like almost every commentator got it wrong as P & P got it wrong aswell

In fairness, Phil was saying Bakelants 1st and then switched to Irizar (I guess because of the graphics).

 

[goggalor]

Great winner's interview with Bakelants.

 

[Eyeballs Out]

The action was nice, but it's surprising how bad a riders can win stages in the TdF nowadays.

Keep going. Ignorance is bliss

 

[zlev11]

Phil and Paul originally called Bakelants but then were thrown off by the graphic

 

[cocteau_ireland]

I opted for Kirby over Liggett. Did Phil call the right name in?

Have a guess.

 

[Ferminal]

Wow, best post-race interview ever.

Bad riders don't make tour teams
