2014 Vuelta a Espana, Stage 5: Priego de Córdoba › Ronda (180km)

[Carols]

LOL Froome sprints for 2 sec bonus....wow!

 

[cineteq]

Lol Froome going for bonifications He got 2 seconds! Gotta love him!

Obviously this is not a good sign.

 

[Rollthedice]

Haha ha ha!!!!!! Best thing this year! Froome taking intermediate sprint seconds!

 

[wirral]

Which GC rider is a good rider in the heat? Temp. 40C+.

If you look at the Tour de Langkawi which is run in heat and humidity worse than this, Colombians seems to feature heavily.

p.s. Dawg outfoxes the Spaniards in Spain. That won't happen very often. and the French!

 

[Hugo87]

Froome going for Points jersey just like in Dauphiné.

 

[LaFlorecita]

Obviously this is not a good sign.

That is what people said when Contador attacked in the stage to Tropea at the 2011 Giro.

Obviously this is not a good sign.

Still obsessed with the 13" that costed him the Vuelta 3 years ago

 

[gunara]

Haha ha ha!!!!!! Best thing this year! Froome taking intermediate sprint seconds!

Sagan should worry about the Tour green!

 

[Miburo]

LOL Froome sprints for 2 sec bonus....wow!

Why laugh at it? Contador did the same 2 years ago, it's very smart.

Hate hypocrites...

Quite smart. Why not, nothing is going to be decided on this stage, might as well stretch legs a bit and get some time for GC. Got to make up some for having a weaker team for TTT I really prefer prologues than TTTs for that very reason. Although cycling is not inidivudal sport per se, I think the results should still be decided by individual players going head to head

Some posters here are absolutely ridiculous.

I'm not a fan of Froome either but not everything he does is worth being ridiculed. I guess many of you are still salty that Froome crushed his competition (your idols) many times.

In my case I like Froome (basically I just hate Cancellara and Evans in the peloton), making a joke with him doesn't mean we hate the guy, just chill a bit.

 

[Miburo]

So you make fun of the guy who just gained 2 sec on his competition?

You prob ain't a really smart person bro. Just ***...

 

[djpbaltimore]

Cheeky move by Froome. If they are going to offer you two secs for minimal effort, take them.

 

[cineteq]

I don't feel like looking this up, but how can you justify making this relevant? Was it at the beginning of the Vuelta? How can this be smart if you're supposed to crush riders with your climbing and ITT skills?

You are very sensitive and dumb to make an absurd analogy like that, if you can't understand the joke with the points jersey.

Care to explain what is so smart that one of the main GC contenders is stealing 2 seconds from people who are really interested in the points jersey?

 

[No_Balls]

Forum crash in 3....2.....1.

Good or not good Dawg at least honors the race unlike some of those fat asses looking for the best tapas around. Good on you boy for showing you´re here to fight.

The game is on.

Let's be serious. The points jersey wasn't likely to be contested on an intermediate sprint point.

Look at the history of the vuelta, it's usually decided with seconds. Gaining 2 seconds while doing almost nothing is smart.

Every time Froome does something it's always looked on the negative side, it's childish. Many are just butthurt cause froome crushes their idols.

Ask anyone, they will all say i'm a Contadorfanboy, so how can i be butthurt in this matter? lol

It's just stupid to laugh at a man who just did something intelligent.

 

[SeriousSam]

Froome has indicated at the Tour that he could be one of the best sprinters if he wanted to, just showing his many talents and gaining two seconds in the process.

 

[Tashkent Terror]

Carlton informing us that there are Vultures in this area, better not tell Betancur or he will try and eat one

 

[wirral]

What are Tinkoff doing?

 

[icefire]

What are Tinkoff doing?

Fear of cross-winds

 

[wirral]

Are they planning to try and do something on the climb?
