2016 Vuelta a España, stage 9: Cistierna > Alto del Naranco

[Flamin]

Antón DNS due to stomach problems clearly had the shape for another great win in Bilbao.

 

[Flamin]

Break of 12 up to road, peloton at 3'45":

Dylan Teuns (BMC), Luis Leon Sanchez (Astana), Alexandre Geniez (FDJ), Jan Bakelants and François Bidard (AG2R - La Mondiale), Thomas De Gendt (Lotto - Soudal), David De La Cruz (Etixx - Quick Step), Moreno Moser (Cannondale - Drapac), Mathias Frank and Dries Devenyns (IAM Cycling), Bartosz Huzarski (Bora-Argon18) and Pello Bilbao (Caja Rural - Seguros RGA).

De la Cruz virtual leader.

Nice break

 

[KyoGrey]

Quality break, I hope Luisle makes it because the other day he deserved to win.

 

[Valv.Piti]

Can only echo that, De La Cruz should force Movistar to chase or at least keep it somewhat under control.

 

[Hugo Koblet]

Hopefully Moser can take this, but Sanchez might be too strong.

De La Cruz has +2 min. on Quintana now on the virtual GC
I hope L.L.Sanchez get this one.

Is that you Carlton Kirby

No, that's not me

I like this breakaway, expect a lot of action later

 

[KyoGrey]

It is shaping nicely in order to have a stage with a good pace today.

This lengthy freewheeling might catch someone off guard when they start climbing and rolling.

Decent action.

Re: 2016 Vuelta a España, stage 9: Cistierna > Alto del Nara

does it looks like it's worth tuning in for the finish from a GC perspective?

 

[Jungle Cycle]
