Kruijswijk could be Hesjedal.
Who's Purito?

Similar type of rider and all.

He sprinted in the last 300 metres. And having Visconti pull for him would have changed nothing at that point.TMP402 said:SafeBet said:Gain seconds on who? All other favorites were in Valverde's group.
Well he gained seconds on Nibali.

??? Amador was up front, trying to reach Maglia Rosa. Valverde was in the group, marking attacks. Did you even watched?!
Yes, I did 'watched' that's why I was asking, as not everyone on this forum is as knowledge as yourself.
Valverde is team leader, why use Visconti on Amador when he could have paced Valverde to the finish line and gain seconds.
