I honestly think Valverde doesnt have a chance to get a podium. He was extremely bad in both stages with a high altitude and tomorrow will have 2 extremely high passes.

Yes nibali pulling an Aru.

Good in the first week, then struggles until the last 2 days.

Tomorrow will be godlike
Aru recovered just in time to break the Sestriere record ascent time. Tomorrow could be great

Old news but GPS is ridiculous. Just times the Nibali - Chavez gap myself and it was 9 secs. GPS pops up and it says 14s :D

Strange stage. On Agnello, Nibali was dropped by both Chaves and Valverde initially.

I think Nibali just played it conservatively on Agnello tbh. Rode at tempo rather than trying to cover the accelerations knowing that it would probably be a bit stop start.

Nibali --> Chaves 14" sec.
Not that far away, S.K. defending like a lion, let's see what happens.
Epic anyway.

Nibali would need to gain at least a minute today. Unlikely unless Chaves completely misjudges himself and cracks
