2014 Paris Nice, Stage 8: Nice - Nice 129km

[BigMac]

Stybar gets 1 second bonus on the first intermediate.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Look at the where the intermediate sprints are placed. Costa should try to get some bonus seconds there.

18km's and Sabatini abandons.

Sprint:
Degenkolb
Boonen
Stybar

I think Stybar is up for it today.

 

[Hugo Koblet]

Costa will get his win today I think.

Degenkolb
Boonen
Stybar

I think Stybar is up for it today.

i think OPQS is betting on tht.

but the time difference between him and costa is still large.

 

[trevim]

Saddle sore for Matthews apparently. Might he have had a chance today?

He climbs well but I doubt he could have contested today's finish.

 

[murali]

before someone accuses me of making an irresponsible comment, let me clarify.

I am only frustrated by the number of DNS/abandons today.
i dont think any of the abandons were "tactical" ones.

pelotonwatch says:

Boonen and Steegmans have abandoned


there goes OPQS firepower

lol, looks like Stybar will have to do it all by himself.

Omg,Bonnen is an solid idiot,he took precious second from his teammate who rides for GC,epic fail

 

[BigMac]

Tyler Farrar Fabian Wegmann and Taylor Phinney gone. So is Karsten Kroon.

Saxo still chasing. Ag2r and Lampre say thank you.

Nibali went and has 40s on the peloton. Andy Schleck dropped alongside Jungels.

 

[Afrank]

[Der Effe]

[More Strides than Rides]

Nibali went and has 40s on the peloton. Andy Schleck dropped alongside Jungels.

Took me a few minutes to catch up.

Nibali looking like a totally different rider than the past 7 days.

Thanks.

What a surprise, Costa without any team-mates near by.

Lampre should really send someone to help Ag2r chase. Not looking good.

Nevermind, just 22s.
