What is Ulissi doing

 

[Sasquatch]

Nibs with a small gap over Reda who has caught him. Ulissi is out of it.

 

[Netserk]

Ulissi is back

 

[Pentacycle]

Ulissi short on fluids?

 

[Sasquatch]

All back together with just under 2km to go. Each time Nibs attacks, Reda responds after a bit and can catch him. So Nibs just needs to attack in the last 500m.

 

[Sasquatch]

Nibali with a gap again. Can he hold it this time? I think so.

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Squalo classico

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Nibali will win this

 

[Netserk]

Nibali has this. Would have been even better if Ulissi had won though

 

[Irondan]

Nice win by Vincenzo Nibali! Bring on le tour!

 

[Ricco']

Meh, another year with the Astana tricolore belt.

 

[Sasquatch]

Great win Nibali. Only Pozzo and Rebellin looked like they could go with his attacks on the first time up the climb, so attacking on the descent to distance them is what sealed it for him. But good ride by Reda. Deserves to get 2nd for sticking with Nibali for so long.

1. Nibali
2. Reda
3. Ulissi
4. Ziolli
5. Rebellin
6. Pozzovivo

 

[TourOfSardinia]

shame Davide Formolo didn't shine again this year.

Lol how Rebellin left Pozzovivo for dust

[Sasquatch]

I'm going to have 4 different streams going tomorrow.

I aim to have the British, French, Belgium and Dutch all at the same time.

 

[Velolover2]

Now all the GC guys have a victory.

 

[Sasquatch]

Are the Belgium and Dutch ones worth watching? Any profiles?

Nibali has certainly hit peak form for the Tour and, being a first big peak, usually lasts longer. He now has the form to go for the win, like last year.

Really? He didn't seem very impressive to me.

lol lovely. I'll skip that one. Well maybe not. I'll watch the last 5km.

I thought someone posted the German one in this thread but I can't seem to find it.

Hofland will find a way to screw it up. Wippert to win.

You were watching a different ract than me. He attacked on the first ascent, then again and again on the descent, then again and again on the final climb to win solo.

He's lean and has a good pedal stroke. No, this Nibili will be arriving in France more or less with the same condition as last year I think.

Wouldnt really be a screwup if Hofland loses to Wippert in a dead flat sprint.
