2016 Giro d'Italia - Stage 14: Farra d'Alpago–Corvara 210 km

[Ariadne]

Brandle abandons too.

 

[staubsauger]

Cunego looks stronger than on previous stages, ain't he!?

 

[Brullnux]

If Cunego takes this stage I will cry with joy.

 

[HelloDolly]

Lopez doing a Nieve ?

 

[Eclipse]

Re:

Looks more like doing a Garzelli to be Nieved in the last climb

So, only FDJ and Tinkoff without their men in the breakaway... I can understand FDJ's absence, they're in survival mode, but Tinkoff could've sent somebody. I guess there's no fresh legs in Tinkoff already.

 

[Rollthedice]

Bananito back with his team.

Is Firsanov in the front group or not?

 

[Broccolidwarf]

Such a talent wasted, because he has no discipline..... He is the Bendtner of cycling..... "Lord Betancour"

 

[markene2]

@samamba Firsanov is dropped

Bendtner?
How dare you accuse Betancur of being dumber than a brick and more self-absorbed than Lance?

Also, how dare you accuse Bendtner of having talent

 

[Txrt]

Vamos David Lopez.
Basques having great presence even if Landa had to retire.

I disagree

I think Tinkoff is banking on a moderate pace until Giau, so the team is more useful with him than out in front..... it's a hard day to get your own water, to get back after a puncture, etc.

His talent is undeniable, his management of it close to criminal, just like Betancour.

The comparison holds water.

You must be danish

 

[Breh]

Tinkoff, Cannondale and Gazprom are the only teams still complete, right?

HAHA - I take it back.... now all but Boaro has been dropped.

WTF Tinkoff?

 

[Pantani Attacks]

Anyone got a solid ES stream?

 

[Miburo]

Wauw what an exciting stage, i hope the last 2 stages get cancelled.

 

[Broccolidwarf]

Roche is looking good today - like the times he did long range wins.

What did you expect at 100k from finish?

I think Balotelli might be a better comparison. Lord Bendtner doesn't really have that much talent...

Plaza is gone, they will never see him again.
