Gonçalves has got to be Kwiatkowski in disguise. He's everywhere!

Re: Re:
Yes, seemed to be 3 sky riders - only 2 been classified in the front group though.
Team sky twitter reckon he was there so yes probably a transponder issue after he swapped bike one or two times?

Re: Re:
Yes, posted about Lawson Craddock too.
Seriously though, what's wrong with it. I feel like it's true.

As we all know since the tdf this year, no matter how stupid movistar acts someone always says that they never do tactical mistakes because Unzué is inerrant. Can please one of these guys explain why they worked so hard before the final climb today? They don't have the leaders jersey to defend, they don't have a real sprinter to work for and they didnt attack on the climb.
Re: Re:
Watching the replay, he was kind of unlucky. He was in good position with 500 to go but the tempo completely dropped and another wave came by from the left side. He tried to catch it but had to stop pedalling for a while, losing too much speed and momentum.

Re: Re:
Lots of attacks also didn't help. Team chasing meant he was soon without a train. Free for all sprint.

Re: Re:
It was a hard stage, due to the crazy big breakaway, and all the Giant team could do was ensure the sprint and there was no chance of a lead out. It was pretty much everyone for himself. Degenkolb for sure was the fastest there and almost pulled it out of the basket.
Well who would have guessed?
Sbaragli 1st
and Rojas on the podium

Giant blew it in many ways. It was headwind run-in, tailwind sprint. They rode like it was the opposite. They could have left the 3 in front until a lot later which would have saved de Kort for the leadout. Also Degenkolb could have opened up a lot earlier - there was no need to go looking for cover
Re: Re:
I think there's a little bit of confirmation bias in this. I also mention other riders who do well on the day.
Oh well, this is off-topic.
