Cannondale takes the prize as the stupidest team of the season. And that says alot in a competition with LottoNL:

I think the contrary, this is an important stage for GC although you donbt understand that... in an stage like today you can lost the Giro.

They started very early...the part with crosswind start now, and all the teams are trying to be now on the front

I agree, they should get a prize for the most desperate team as well.

Well, that makes it even worse. They have a lot more information than we do, yet they still have such bad tactics. Actually calling them tactics might even be an overstatement.

God dammit cameraman! I don't want to see if Kittel is suffering, I want to see if he is still in the peloton
ES have no clue about cycling. Kittel just off the back will get back on handily enough.
Guess he never made it?
Well this ruined my plan of just quoting this until the end of the stage!! :p
