Re:

Carols, I assume you're watching on tv? How many km's left for you?

27.1

 

[BigMac]

Betancur slides back.

 

[Rollthedice]

Zakarin spotted at the front.

 

[The Blues]

Betancur just got dropped.

 

[doperhopper]

Movistar and Astana pacing well, but not insane full gas yet, group still quite big.

 

[Parrulo]

Hail... ouchies

Re:

Most will hate this weather but some will love it! Let's hope the descent isn't as steep and difficult as the ascent.

The descent is quite easy. Maybe a couple of hairpins at most.

Ah nice, I thought stream had a slight delay.

Thanks.

 

[Rollthedice]

Betancur dropped.

 

[BigMac]

Is that Costa dwindling at the back? Or Niemiec?

 

[the sceptic]

katusha show coming up

 

[AlexNYC]

Betancur Not there yet...

 

[BigMac]

Not Costa, he's with Majka. Movistar finds themselves a train.

 

[AlexNYC]

Movistar want this

 

[Parrulo]

Seems like Quintana will blow the race apart on the last climb

Re:

Slow train coming.

 

[BigMac]

Froome completely alone now. On the wheel of Quintana, followed by Nibali.

 

[AlexNYC]

Is that Froome on Quintana's wheel?

 

[doperhopper]

Nibs talking to Vroomie as they approach the summit.

 

[bigcog]

Nibali to attack on descent

 

[rick james]

where the f*ck is team Sky?

 

[sir fly]

Movistar at the front, but I wouldn't say the final climb suits Quintana the best. A longer ascent would've been appropriate.

Thanks.
Steep climb but no action
I'm hoping for some action on the descent then.
