2015 Tour de San Luis, January 19-25th (2.1)

and magno prado in between somwhere. he is their best rider with flavio cardoso

I forgot about him, he could have been up there if he didn't crashed out.
It's simply ridiculous that a team with 4 riders can finish 1st and 3rd.

 

[De Snelle Duif]

Best coverage so far of all the mountain stages, if only they can get a cameraman that wants to zoom out less It was a really nice mountain, yet the way they put the road on there can only lead to massive amounts of erosion once rain falls.

Anyway, it seems weird that the group stayed together so long when Diaz had these crazy attacks in him. Quintana was okay already on this stage.

argentina is no cycling tv nation. it is a radio nation. similar to nealry all countries there. so tv is very bad. if you look at cycling in uruguay and brazil for instance you have amazing tv coverage because it's a native tv sport there (although uruguay also radio)

Well as the interest in the race grows, hopefully that's something that will develop. As has been noted, coverage is better this year compared to previous. If the race was in May, no one ould reallly care but becuase we've been denied top level racing for months, it's a bit like ravenous dogs fighting over a rotten bone.

I'd love to see a full genius 1-2-3 with Diaz, Diniz and Ramos.

On Angliru,going over the finish line linking hands and smiling.

They should get a wildcard for the Vuelta, that would be awesome.

They'd need a bucketload of money to get a ProContinental licence (that cost basically killed the São José dos Campos team a few years ago) and would need to sign up to the biopassport to do that though...

However, if they showed up fully fit and on form, they could be fun at the Volta. They entered it a couple of years ago but not with a full-strength team.

Flavio Cardoso is just one mean motha****a. Just look at this guy.

 

[FoxxyBrown1111]

I would love to see Diaz couple with Horner and make Airgas the best ever team in cycling. LOLZ!

Managed by former winner Cassio Freitas.

So Vuillermoz and Dombrowski in top 10 and some others like Brajkovic out? Nice rides by them, I expect a lot from Vuillermoz this season

With Betancour, Bardet, Peraud, Bakelants and Pozzo on his team he'll have lots of work and few opportunities I expect

 

[ILovecycling]

Good ride by Dombrowski and Vuillermoz confirms that he is still improving

 

[Wallenquist]

Strange thing with Contreras time. I am pretty sure I saw Vuillermoz crossing the line solo.

Very good ride by Dombrowski, looks like it might be a breakthrough seaon for him, finally.

you beautiful funvic!

decent action by the helicopter camera this time. superb landscape,

 

[Moviefan1203]

It's nice to see Dombrowski find his climbing legs. Hopefully his health issue is behind him for good. That kid is loaded with talent.

Real talents are lost at Sky (EBH)
You have to be midpack or a donkey - then Sky turns you into a winner.

Sky couldnt really help Dombrowski was injured. They were actually really patient with him and gave him all the time he needed for his recovery. Now his last operation (late in the 2014 season) seemed to have worked well and Dombrowski fineally has power in both legs agian.

Last call for the sprinters (and everybody else).

Starts in 30 minutes or so and finishes around 22:15 (CET).

 

[Waterloo Sunrise]

Cav gets one finally.

 

[trevim]

Cav gets one finally.

Ahead of young guns Gaviria and Mareczko

 

[De Snelle Duif]

Seemed like a very fast race. Cav almost stopped sprinting too early! Impressive by both Gaviria and Mareczko, being close in a sprint to Cav when he was lead out properly for once!

 

[cineteq]

Stage 7
1. Cavendish
2. Gaviria
3. Mareczko
4. Modolo
5. Hutarovich
