Re:

quintana doesn't suck so much in the heat, he needs to adapt a little. in 2012 vuelta he was amazing at the end and it was really hot.

true, but froome is really good in hot conditions.

Re:

35 % chance of rain at Plateu De Beille between 16-19 (weather.com).

Edit: A chance of rain at Port de Lers too.

Pls rain

 

[meat puppet]

Hoping for a sub 46min PdB. Should be possible for Froome is he goes for it.

 

[DDavies]

If you google Plateu De Beille weather, google shows you a forecast where you can see the chances of rain. The source is weather.com.

 

[riodouro]

Hoping for rain, and some attack on a descent by Nibali,Valverde and Contador, maybe Quintana FTW ?

chaince of rain? but does it say how much rain will fall?

 

[Andro]

Lotto Soudal laying down a hard pace from the beginning. Looks like they want to do a 20 km sprint train until the intermediate sprint.

 

[Eagle]

Lotto Soudal are going to keep this together until the Sprint, went straight to the front

 

[sir fly]

So after the intermediate starts the action.
20 minutes, or so.

 

[Jagartrott]

This is pretty cool.
The riders wanting to be in the break, will have to follow the sprint train.

Someone could sneak out.

Big day in front of TV had begun

Not looking good for Barguil

 

[togo95]

Now they don't even need to ride too hard anymore. No one will try to jump knowing that Lotto would be straght after them.

I bet Le Hage de Garnere provides a cover for wildlife.

 

[sir fly]

Sagan in the breakaway, maybe?
Too far, I think. Even for the domestique duties later on.

 

[Andro]

Greipel
Degenkolb
Sagan

Re: Re:

43:28 is the record btw

And Contador's time is 44:08, for reference.

If they didn't stop 20 times on the mountain contador/rasmussen might have had the record

To be fair, Pantani said he waited for Ullrich to rejoin the peloton after a puncture to attack, and during that part of the climb the pace was not that fast.

(I'm slightly biased )

 

[sir fly]

And action!

What do you think? Will it rain?

Re:

Greipel fastest sprinter in the Tour I think.

 

[Andro]

Group of 15-20 riders have escaped. Fuglsang, Bardet, Kwiatkowski are there.

 

[Cance > TheRest]

Fuglsang, Kwiatkowski, Bardet, JROD among the names attacking

 

[Arredondo]

Purito in the break

Nibali pissed off?
