OGE just made the best setup for attacking ever. If they don't attack now they are just stupid.

If Chaves was going to blow his team, why not continue when group is down to three?


Or Chavez is tired.

It was a good set up, but if Chavez doesn't get away, or try repeatedly, it doesn't mean he is stupid. Probably means he is tired, and he thinks Kruiswijk isn't.

It's still a physical race, not Moto GP

How legendary would it be for Scarponi to take this? Cima Coppi at least please!

Cima Coppi is already easily won, more than 1 min on Ulissi.

Perfect time for Valverde to attack when they were down to 3, but I guess there's more chance of my aunt growing balls overnight than Valverde trying a serious attack.

Looks like Valverde wasn't lying about his problem being altitude.

Majka has been incredibly disappointing in this Giro. Not just that he's off the pace but the way he seems content to Zubeldia himself to a top 10.

Valverde is not good in altitude, so that way is difficut to win a Giro if you dont try more in other kind of stages...
