2015 Vuelta stage 20: San Lorenzo de El Escorial>Cercedilla

[Afrank]

Are Aru's teammates in the break that is 1:22 up the road or the one that is over 9 minutes?

 

[deValtos]

Christ get the damn motorbike out the way.

Tom will catch the group again, but will get dropped in the next climb.

 

[doperhopper]

will they call the breakaway teammates to wait (AST/TS/MOV)?

I disagree, I think that gap is bridgable.

Majka is helping Aru. I want to see Oleg's face right now

For all Tinkoff's bluster, Majka has a great shot at knocking Dumoulin off the podium here. That's more important than some petty squabbling.

Re:

Majka pushing hard.

My wish comes true, and I don't even really like him, I just want him to push hard today

TD dropping Nieve on the flat?

 

[Kwibus]

Aru wins the Vuelta. Dumoulin looks broken while he should give all to try to connect to Aru now. Lulu and zeits will be there for Aru soon and then its done if he didnt close the gap.

And seriously I was afraid Dumoulin couldnt do this. Nobody really tested him in the multi mountain stages on the penultimate climbs. Always the final climb and then he always had to let go.

Yup, looks that way from here.

The 2nd Landa acceleration to bridge to Aru in the end of Morcuera was DEMENTIAL.

 

[jsem94]

Bring back LL Sanchez to Aru NOW!

The nine minutes group is Aru. I think his team mates are somwhere just behind the 1:22ish (which should be De Marchi and Visconti).

 

[Hugo Koblet]

Where's Valverde?

Re: Re:

Yes Aru has a gap

Landa, what a loser

What is your business with Landa. He just helped breaking Dumoulin for Aru and is riding to Aru to help him.

Yeah Landa has done great work today

Yes he has. When I wrote that I thought he was done for the day dropping off Aru. He hadn't attacked Tom and started the mass exodus. My bad...

9 minutes, but they will wait.

I am not saying its stupid. If I was Majka, I'd do the same

 

[Hugo Koblet]

14 seconds gap.

Landa allready dropped Tom who could barely come back and then kept on racing a furious pace which emptied Dumoulin. Aru had to finish it.

He's cooked. Then Aru will drop him on Cotos again.

Really hope Plaza can stay away

Red Jersey gone into the Red

Where the hell are Lulu and Zeits??!!

 

[gunara]

Quite refreshing this non-MTF/TT conclusion for a GT

Yep, it's all over now. Aru having a nice rest while Dumoulin going deep into the red to try to get back on; he'll get destroyed on the last climb even if he bridges. Then Astana have three teammates ready for the false flat at the top and the final descent.
