[TomLPC]

Yates just looked so easy

 

[Alexandre B.]

I have the feeling Movistar will throw another stage win.

 

[Miburo]

lol movistar tactics

 

[Rollthedice]

Yates leaves Moreno in the dust.

 

[TomLPC]

He's gone

 

[Miburo]

Movistar must be the dumbest team in cycling history

 

[TMP402]

We need to see the peloton FFS.

 

[Andro]

Re: Re:

OBE taking over in the descent. Wonder what they're trying

Gerrans is working, so maybe Yates for the stage win?

And it paid off

 

[TMP402]

Can anyone see Froome?

I understand Movistar's choice to let someone like Moreno attack because he won't be chased by other gc riders, but if the rider who attacks is in such a bad shape that Yates can beat him with ease, wouldn't it make more sense to take a little risk and let Valverde attack? Or they should have used Moreno to chase down attacks instead of causing the crucial attack, so Valverde can win the sprint.

 

[Miburo]

LMAO piti wins the sprint

Valverde sprinting. I'm not even surprised by that anymore

 

[Red Rick]

What probably happened is that Valverde wasn't strong enough to follow Yates

 

[CheckMyPecs]

Simon > Adam.

Re:

Why attack with Moreno? Put your money on a guy that hasn't done *** the entire season?

Maybe no one attacks and you can control it, so piti can win it. They're just ***

 

[SafeBet]

Movistar is unbelievable.

Great win for S.Yates.Looked so easy.

Re:

Nobody chased Yates when he attacked. They just let him ride away.

Movistar's tactics on this stage were awful and there's really no defending it.

 

[Miburo]

Btw Contador attacked but tv didn't cover it.

Where is my man Damian?

 

[Valv.Piti]

Re:

I expect a Contador attack

Close

 

[Geraint Too Fast]

Did I just see Elissonde outsprint Moreno?

 

[Alexandre B.]

Great stage by Frank too.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

A very fine win for the Yates brother. The Orica plan paid off big times.
But Valverde could have won this with the right team tactic, lol.
