Eurosport moderators start to talk about the race and that the riders are already on the Agnello, so they will immediately switch to live pics, right? No they will talk ten more minutes about useless facts about the stage and show us a few interviews because obviously nobody wants to see the race.

to be fair they weren't actually on the agnello. only on the false flat leading to it.
they will be starting it any second now

When was the last time a rider was dominant throughout a gt and then got put under any sort of danger on the final mountain stages?

Froome in the 2015 TdF, Contador in the 2015 Giro

Froome was at no point in any danger. Contador was at no point dominant
If Contador wasn't dominant, neither has been Kruijswijk.

Contador was as dominant as Kruijswijk has been so far.

Or do you think he would've been within 40'' of Chaves if he had started Giau 50'' behind?

The longer Valverde waits on the Agnello, the lower his chances. He's never been too good at high altitudes.

Who do people fancy for the win if the break stays clear? Are the Astana and Movistar guys in the break to help out later on, or for themselves?

Scarponi, if he's not there for Nibali.
