2014 Vuelta a Espana, Stage 4: Mairena del Alcor → Córdoba (164.7 Km)

[Shardi]

Kolobnev looking good for the worlds

any idea on the top 10 finishers?

 

[TANK91]

I said it earlier on Sagan is not going to be this once in a generation rider we thought he would. His sprinting is pathetic which you would think make him a beast on cobbles/hills? But it hasn't. Sagan will just keep winning green the odd G-W i cant see him being what i hoped he would be.

[ILovecycling]

where is NAIRO???????

 

[dicanio_michael]

Where is Quintana ?

 

[Kotar_Rhakoz]

Reynes gave Degenkolb a perfect leadout while Matthews got himself caught behind Caruso. Not that it would have made any difference to the win, but Matthews should have gotten second.

Thanks, those of us at work are impatient to see results

 

[Piti4Podiums]

Clearly an error, Nairo was to see in the first group.

 

[willbick]

Degenkolb is so handsome, AND IM NOT EVEN GAY!! (Ok maybe a bit)

 

[icefire]

Where is Quintana ?

He's so small he's been missed by the time keepers

 

[roundabout]

where is NAIRO???????

Where is his transponder you mean

 

[Netserk]

Degenkolb wins. Matthews got blocked.

Matthews didn't get blocked. He had a clear gap to get on/keep the wheel on Degenkolb at the time he lost his wheel, but he was either not strong enough or just inattentive.

Another odd mix of riders.

you sure,100%?

 

[TANK91]

Huh i thought Valverde lost time? How is he 2nd and ahead of Quintana. Has Nairo lost time?

Give him a rest, he's here to train for the Worlds. He has great potential. All he needs is a mentor like Riis to bring him to glory.

Early Vuelta stages do produce weird top 10s - yesterday and now today. Nice to see the #1 bib getting in the mix there

If Quintana changed his bike then he might not appear on the results. Same thing happened to Evans a couple of days ago.
