[Hugo Koblet]

2 seconds is really helpful for Dumoulin here.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Great racing today.

ITT, the descent stage and this one. All good stuff.

Re:

4 seconds for Major Tom?

Surely not. It'll be back wheel of Moreno to front wheel of Pozzovivo for the official times surely?

Re:

This useless effort might have costed him La Vuelta.

 

[Carols]

Wow just Wow! Major Tom is Strong!!!

Re:

1 or 2 seconds?

Max 2 seconds

Re: Re:

Tommy D Indurains these cobbles!

I don't think even Indurain ever Indurained cobbles.

He did ride them once in the 92 Tour. Lost a few minutes

-96 Dauphine brah. Killed Jaja and Virenque.

Re:

Craddock is a Beast...Aru dropping!!!

What did he do?

I had turned off.

 

[Rollthedice]

Aru is fighting like a mad angel.

 

[luckyboy]

2/3 seconds is hardly a big deal for Saturday. If Aru can take 3 seconds there he can take 5 or 6 - if he is able to drop him then the gap won't be that small anyway.

 

[Gigs_98]

These 2 seconds could become important for the tactics tomorrow, because Aru isnt in the situation anymore that he just has to win the stage. Now he has to gap dumoulin or he has to win while dumoulin only gets 3rd.

 

[l.Harm]

3 seconds it is. You've to count after Dumoulin passed the line, not Moreno.

 

[TourOfSardinia]

may be that shampoo works

 

[Marco Pantani]

Mh I thought he could take 10 seconds at least. Movistar and Astana will crush Dumoulin tomorrow.

He was dragging Tom up the cobbled climb like an animal

Back wheel of TD not moreno (or front wheel).

Oh my, I'm so proud!

 

[StannisBaratheon]

Marginal gains, Brailsford must be impressed.

 

[seldon71]

I'm embarrassed for these Eurosport commentators for all that BS talk about battle for green jersey when every single point had been taken by members of break quarter an hour before. There were 24 men in the break and points only go for Top 15.

 

[DFA123]

Good news for the race is that Aru looked really strong closing down the gap at the end, with almost no help from his team. Doesn't seem too affected by the crash and should attack loads tomorrow if that is the case.

 

[TourOfSardinia]

GC

 

[seldon71]

Arroyo gained enough to break into Top15, Monfort Top20 today... Nothing major, but something mentionable.

 

[Cramps]

Supposing tomorrow Aru comes 1st, TD comes third but in the same group. Aru and TD would have same time counting bonuses. How is tie resolved?

 

[Taxus4a]

Today Saxo did what the have to do, but they remermered me that I dont like that team.

Good Tom as expected he tooks some second today, but Aru was again really strong and tomorrow there are climbs to drop Tom in some moment.

Good Movistar to try, although they were wrong.

Impressive Cougeard, he looks very good for the future.

1/100th from the ITT (I think that Dumoulin will win in that case).
