2016 Giro d'Italia - Stage 5 Praia a Mare – Benevento 233km

[Taxus4a]

But at the end, Cannondale, or maybe Uran, much better than SKY, or maybe Landa.

Re: Re:

LottoNL?

Moreno Hoffland

I know, but why use up his 2 helpers 7 km's from the finish line? It makes no sense, and LottoNL does this time and time again.

Greipel has only one man left... Not gonna win. Last K is harder than I (and I think a lot of riders too) thought.

 

[Guybrush]

make it harder for pure sprinters

 

[carolina]

finally a sprint where we don't know who's going to win

 

[CheckMyPecs]

Any news on Majka?

Greipel loses Roelandts wheel in every corner

Re: Re:

Looks like Greipel is feeling good today.

Since 2007 he's won a stage in every GT he entered, I'm quite sure he'll manage a stage win here to. Maybe today, maybe later.

To be continued...

 

[carolina]

greipel just appeard from nowhere

 

[Jspear]

Looking back, it was smart for him to be so close to the front in the last 4 k. That was kinda technical.

 

[Cance > TheRest]

Greipel classes above everyone else there.

Unlucky for Nizzolo, who lost all chance after Porsevs crash. Another big chance of a maiden Giro win gone, this time not his own fault

 

[Hugo Koblet]

Well done by Jungels

 

[Jspear]

 

[Maxiton]

Really impressive from Greipel. Wow.

 

[markene2]

Young Zabel showing form!

 

[SafeBet]

Lotto showed that it only took one strong teammate to get a sprinter into position. FDJ and Lampre had two helpers each get their man into position right before and through the last corner. Nizzolo didn't have any help and was stuck in a thick part of the bunch.

Re:

Pretty sure I saw him moving up and being 10-15th wheel with 1km to go before dropping back further

 

[Irondan]

Great sprint shown by the Gorilla! Chapeau!

 

[classicomano]

Greipel is a friendly giant.
