Orica blew them away on the Agnello. Must have been minutes down over the top.

Just tuned in, wtf is going on?

Sounds like the finish has been in some chaos. Gendarmes not letting media, team buses and cars to the summit..

Re: Re:

Lotto NL management are really a bunch of idiots, crap team, crap strategy (no one at the front today), shame on them.

Lack of quality riders. Not much strategy you can put into practice like that.

Send riders in the break. Everyone can do that.

Valverde and Najka dropped, Kruij had an incident.

Very likely that Chaves is about to win his first GT. Crazy

 

[TomLPC]

Steven at the back of the group

Reading through the pages now.. What happened to Zakarin?

Should Pirazzi really be doing that ? I want the Nibali/chaves group to do well but it looks a bit weird ...

Porte got kicked out of the Giro for taking a wheel of someone not on his team but you're allowed to hammer it on the front for another team ...

Re: Re:

i wonder how much does it cost to buy a rider to pull for you few kms? anyone with insider info?

Can't happen in the open although Gallopin for Thomas...There has to be a "reason", like Verona pulling the Pink/Jungels group.

Not quite the same, though, I know.

Plus Valverde and Majka taking turns for last 30km while Nibali and Chaves just sitting pretty 1min up the road

This is one of those stages that people will still talk about in twenty years. As often it all started with a crash...

 

[Nirvana]

At 15 kms to go 52" between Monfort and Nibali and 50" between Nibali e Valverde.

 

[woodburn]

Chaves and Nibali should be plenty rested to attack this. And Scarponi can lead way.

 

[Hugo Koblet]

Still pictures of Zakarin's crash right there. Looks like his front wheel fell off?

 

[Pippo_San]

Wow what a stage. The Dutch mafia has been served! Yay!

Fell into some rocky ravine on the descent, was barely moving, looked bad but only broken collarbone

 

[dgodave]

This is stomach churning.
I shouldnt have eaten breakfast.

 

[Climbing]

Scarponi time.

Looked like a massive crash (we didn't see it) but seems he got off mercifully lightly

ORICA winning a GT.
