Re: Re:

Aru with the time trial of his life.

The red jersey does give you the strength of ten men...

Purito doesn't agree

You can have all the strength you want; not going to help much on a TT if you hold your head up like a giraffe the whole way.

Majka only 30s gained on Rodriguez. Was hoping for 30 more

Re:

Purito has no chance anymore, so now he might be agressive

Hahahahahahaha.

 

[Springveldt]

Wow, Aru only lost around 10 seconds over the last 12KM.

 

[Gigs_98]

I think Aru just won the Vuelta. He surely will find these 3 seconds somewhere on 1 mountain and 2 hilly stages.

Re: Re:

Aruuuuu

Only 3 seconds difference.

Aru to win the Vuelta. In miburos logic this is ridiculous. Aru suddenly a TT rider!

He is not a TT rider by any means. He targeted this race and didn't ride the Tour. That makes all the difference.
He did look decent on the bike but TT will never be his strenght

You don't have to explain it to me. I didnt even expect Tom to get red today vs Aru.

Nobody within a minute of Dumoulin on this TT. Smash.

Dumoulin just won La Vuelta.

Congrats

looking forward to the Worlds

The Dutch mafia better pull their *** together. This is gonna be hard to swallow.

TD incredible, but that last section from Aru was amazing! Great to finally get a close GC battle in a GT this year.

I think Aru just won the Vuelta. He surely will find these 3 seconds somewhere on 1 mountain and 2 hilly stages.

But dumoulin best on small steep hills? He'll drop Aru on both, and probably on the mountain stage too for good measure

Re: Re:

Dumoulin needs more...

He'll get it

Hope so, he needs to lead the GC by around a minute to make it interesting, maybe 40 seconds...

It's over

 

[Moose McKnuckles]

Cobo and Horner thinking they should have raced this.

 

[Cance > TheRest]

Re:

This is like Sagan vs Alaphilippe in the USA!

Except it's the opposite scenario! However Dumoulin winning the Vuelta is a MUCH bigger surprise than Sagan winning ToC

 

[Gigs_98]

Dumoulin just won La Vuelta.

Congrats

looking forward to the Worlds

Thats a joke right. Ofc its possible but saying he has already won it is such nonsense

 

[StannisBaratheon]

Dumoulin would win if he had a team. In these conditions holding off Astana is impossible.

 

[jsem94]

Dumoulin to pull a VDB in Avila.

He just needs to old off Aru.

There will be no need for a 'holding off', nobody will seriously attack him.

Re:

He has a new team - Lotto Jumbo.

 

[Red Rick]

Ohwell, if only Landa had waited

 

[hfer07]

Dumoulin just won La Vuelta.

Astana will attack him! This race is Not Over
