[Netserk]

Too much urban area, not exposed enough They will probably soon turn left and have tailwind again...

If the crosswinds blow harder we could see echelons.
If it is so can Astana and Nibali keep up? they used a lot of firepower yesterday..they must be really tired

 

[DJ Sprtsch]

Interesting to see if Movistar learned anything from last year.

 

[indianfanboy]

Giant forced to work hard and Degenkolb might not feature in the lead out, it will be intersting to see other teams challenging them today

 

[Akuryo]

Maybe finally Renshaws day of glory? I think he deserves at least one stage for his efforts as a leadout over the years.

It is a learning process. They got better compared to the last few years. They had some decent placings this spring.

I do wonder about their recovery after yesterday. I think we will see its effect this weekend.

My memory might be playing tricks but wasn't that just down to bad luck. Puncture for Valverde wasn't it?

 

[indianfanboy]

Demare is down

 

[Eclipse]

Big crash. Talansky involved at the very least

 

[Pricey_sky]

2 different crashes.

 

[Geraint Too Fast]

Nervous peloton.

 

[indianfanboy]

Spanish champ down too

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Nibali slowing down the Peleton to help the crash victims - boss

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Lets see how many riders abandon this flat stage compared to yesterdays cobble stage......

 

[Arredondo]

Konig, Slagter, Bauer, Cimolai. Serpa, Demare, Izagirre Zandio and Burghardt amongst the victims

Zandio is out for sure.

 

[indianfanboy]

Zandio crashed hard yesterday too...another sky bot out?

 

[JRanton]

Zandio abandons

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Sagan's daily sprint for the green.
Kittel to try and stop him?

 

[Arredondo]

Egor Silin (Katusha) also abandons.

Makes a total of 8 riders out of the race so far

 

[indianfanboy]

Renshaw takes it..Sagan second
