Nordhaug, 6th overall here last year, only lost 8:54 today...

Thought he would've found some form by now, it's been quite some time since his knee injury was over. Looks like he's just another waste of money for Rabo/Blanco :(
According to procycling.no, Nordhaug was told by his doctor to not push himself during the race - that's why he took it easy on the final climb. He's been sick, and has only done easy rides since San Remo.
