Don't be shocked if Samu wins the Vuelta.

He's the freshest one out of everyone. It's a shame this last week isn't harder. Like, the next few stages, it's a shame there aren't a few more like that next Thursday, Friday and Saturday. If there was, I'd say he'd win.

But yeah, he'll definitely podium!

Talk about potentially destroying a great design.
Cut the last 10-15km away and this would be a perfect stage for serious racing.
I fear this will be another pathetic uphill type sprint.
My expectation is very low, can only be positively surprised I guess.

Same finish.

What was your reaction when someone told you last year the Horner was going to win La Vuelta?

You can't compare Horner to this Sanchez at all.

Sanchez already has 68 days this season, Why would he be fresh as a daisy?

Bears? 60 live bears? is this real or are these like stuffed bears??? i foresee calamitous disaster.....

Yesterday I posted a map, they finish at a wildlife park, they ride past the hippos and zebras and finish between the bears and giraffes & ostriches.

Tinkoff pretty lucky again today, almost no work to be done.
The last few days have been pretty easy and smooth for tinkoff.

Yesterday the only people who worked hard were the viewers. The nice relaxing day probably benefited Froome more than Tinkoff.
