2014 Tour de France July 18, Stage 13: Saint-Étienne - Chamrousse 197.5km

[Ruby United]

Nibali a the front. Everyone is just waiting for him to go...

 

[More Strides than Rides]

Shaded well here, how exposed are the last 5k to the sun?

 

[Akuryo]

Classact Valverde strikes again.

 

[Arnout]

Nibali joking around in the front group. Valverde being an idiot. It just shows how much Pinot and Valverde want to win the Tour

That ship has sailed.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Zubeldia already doing domestique duties for Mollema

 

[maxmartin]

AV what an a**?

 

[icefire]

Porte almost 5 minutes down and still 5 kms to go lol

Valverde, what a joke lol.

This year's tour without Contador and Froome looks like 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004 with Armstrong.

Sure 2003?

 

[fantomas]

Valverde being a ******. Quelle surprise!

 

[Ruby United]

5 and a half for porte

 

[Publicus]

Nibali perhaps subconsciously also wanting to prove he is not winning only because Contador and Froome had to abandon.

Yeah probably, but I don't think he's going to convince most people that aren't already his fans.

 

[Eclipse]

Bardet just keeps going for it.

 

[Fzotrlool]

Porte, 5:37 behind. Crazy. Free Nieve! Make him captain.

 

[willbick]

Van garderen is such a diesel lol

 

[Miburo]

Don't ride majka. Omg what the **** is he doing?

 

[trevim]

I'm tired of watching Bardet. How much lifes does he have? Always attacking, awesome

 

[fowlyetti]

Porte is going to loose 10 minutes today. Its funny looking back at Froome saying Porte was a more viable plan B than Wiggins.

 

[thrawn]

Bardet just keeps going for it.

I get the feeling he's gonna blow because he keeps attacking. Hope he doesn't though.

 

[perico]

LOL at VDB2 getting dropped by TJVG

 

[glassmoon]

Hope Mjaka gets dropped soon. He is hradly doing any work in the group so far.

 

[petiagos]

Rodriguez save himself for tomorrow stage...

 

[Miburo]

Hope Mjaka gets dropped soon. He is hradly doing any work in the group so far.

Why would he work?

 

[Jelantik]

I never thought the competition would be so sh*t that Nibali would be doing this so easily

well that's what happen if the strong contenders all crashed out. This race is nibali race to loose. I don't see anyone challenged him, unless he joins froome and contador in a bad luck. He'll win this. If he can't.. o my.. fat lady is going to choke donuts

 

[Carols]

Damn I hope Nibs gifts it to Majka!

 

[Eclipse]

I get the feeling he's gonna blow because he keeps attacking. Hope he doesn't though.

Probably. But at least if he does blow up it will have been in glorious fashion =p

Did I just see Frank Schleck attempting to briduge up to Bardet and Van Garderen or doth my eyes deceive me

 

[trevim]

Schleck letting Peraud chase his own team mate
