2014 Vuelta al País Vasco, Stage 4: Vitoria-Gasteiz → Arrate (Eibar), 151 km

[BigMac]

Valverde being his usual wheelsucking self

No point in attacking, he can't drop Contador. Better take it to the line and win the stage.

 

[T-Nielsen]

It could have been a TT dual with Valverde if Contador had just kept going, now it is going to be open for the TT.

 

[Miburo]

Valverde is a dumbass.

 

[BigMac]

Poels wins.

Crap route. Too many downhill finishes.

 

[Afrank]

Very nice win by Poels.

 

[classicomano]

Poels giant ****ing hero

 

[Miburo]

Gained no time on Contador and didn't win stage. Typical Valverde..

Oh he's 2nd!!!! Good job valverde, you're a genius.

 

[Rollthedice]

Valverde sprints for second place!

 

[Pricey_sky]

Well done Poels, great ride!

 

[T-Nielsen]

Dumb and dumber by Contador and Valverde today.

Don't hit me Flo

 

[Jelantik]

well stage 1 is more exciting than stage4. They should have make this top finish.. so there's more attacking. A little anti climactic.

 

[BigMac]

Cunego on third place in GC now.

Paulo Martins and Luís Piçarra are still looking for Rui Costa and wondering if he already finished the stage.

 

[jsem94]

Did Valverde get a second there because of a split? Pathetic.

 

[Cance > TheRest]

Most boring stage of the Volta Pais Vasco this year so far.. What an anticlimax after stage 1, but then again it kinda was expected

 

[Netserk]

Contador realized that he couldn't drop Piti, so decided to troll him by letting a move up the road take the stage win

 

[burning]

Valverde is going to win Contador in the TT.

Nope, he's going to lose Contador

 

[Jack_89]

Too easy.to make differences.
as usual...Arrate.

Yesterday's stage says hello.

And Omega continues the dominance. Hilarious.

what do you expect with this too many downhill finish. For once can they just put top finish?? It's kinda anti climax. I'm so bored waiting .. yawn.

Oh he's 2nd!!!! Good job valverde, you're a genius.

What?? Do you think he was able to drop Conta???

 

[Pricey_sky]

Valverde gets 2 secs on Contador.

 

[BigMac]

I agree.
He can win it but as usual he waits and waits and waits

You think Valverde would be able to drop Contador today? Madness.

He did the right thing, wait for the line and take the stage win. Did not come out well, but can't really blame him.

Valverde's best chance of a win in that case would have been to go to the line with just Contador. Not sitting back and let Poels take it.
