Big Tom D. FTW. Strong winds on course, tiny Nairito will be buffeted all around.

The later they start the better the wind conditions. So it's likely a GC contender winning I guess.

I don't think he'll get disqualified.

It will be a disgrace if he doesn't get at least a proper time penalty.

Coppel missed the lead by 4 seconds. Oliveira still in pole position

I don't think it's possible to give a time penalty for violation like this. It's a fine or DQ and obviously he won't get DQ'ed.

So it's a disgrace then.

Flecha changes his mind about the timings. Even apologies. :exclaim:

 

[MartinGT]

Ze Panzer is off!

 

[Arredondo]

Ion, Coppel, Oliveira...

I forgot all of those names. Putting too much faith in Cance

i believe it's fine AND DQ though. no other option in the rules...

This entire Tour will be remember as a disgrace, sadly.

It is. Ugly Tour in all kinds of aspects.

And apart from that, with the horrible news yesterday, i bet a lot of people don't really care anymore about the outcome of this race.

Why are you so bitter?
It was a traffic jam, and Majka did worse a couple of years ago.

People will care as much about the result of this Tour as they always do. The terror attack yesterday will have no influence on this.

I have a feeling that Teklahaimanot won't start tomorrow because he won't be inside time limit it seems. According to race center at 17.5 km he is 14'51 back.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

what's Tekle doing>?

84.LEMOINE C. COF in 31' 38'' at 5' 21''
85.TEKLEHAIMANOT D. DDD in 41' 08'' at 14' 51'

Did he take Froome's neutral bike?

 

[Bumeington]

Re:

He was only trying to avoid spectators now

What will happen to Sky for illegally feeding their riders yesterday? Anyways, this isnt the thread for it.

Landa fined 50 francs, no big deal

not bitter at all, just quoting the rules. i don't want him to get DQ (for the show's sake) but UCI have only 2 options imho: let it slide or dq+fine.

Was doing okay on 1st checkpoint. I think it is possible that he crashed.

 

[MartinGT]

Tekla must have something wrong? Surly?

 

[Pricey_sky]

Rohan Dennis says that the light climbers are going to struggle with the amount of wind around. Says not to take a disk wheel, Doesn't bode well for the likes of Quintana ect.

What happened on yesterday stage and the list goes on, this tour has been a disgrace no matter how you look at it and, and ofcourse people will remember it for it.

Error? Point 3 time at point 2? It fits his point 1 time.

 

[ILovecycling]

This is mt saint michel '13 all over again, nairo will be glad if he doesnt lose 1.30+ against Froome

Good for Mollema who used to bike to school for 20km on an old heavy bike and back every day through the open flats around Groningen

Seems logical. Racecenter doing crazy things again.
