2017 Tirreno-Adriatico, March 8-14, WT

[Geraint Too Fast]

Nice gift from Castroviejo.

 

[barmaher]

These seconds will help Bob Jungels for GC.

 

[Hugo Koblet]

Ugh, Thomas looks horrible. Still 21 seconds though.

 

[sir fly]

Well done!

 

[barmaher]

Any GC contenders dropped? I can see Quintana, Dumoulin, Pinot and Aru in the group.

And Tom D goes.

 

[DBotero]

Amazing Thomas

 

[Hugo Koblet]

Great win by Thomas!

 

[Gigs_98]

Was that Nibali who dropped near the end?

 

[portugal11]

I'm saying this for the second time. Tom Dumoulin is the main rival of quintana for il giro

 

[Valv.Piti]

Was that Nibali who dropped near the end?

Probably, could very well be

 

[tomorrow]

of course stream went down in the last k. Good job thomas, very brave move.

Re:

I expect furious attacks from Rosa, Landa and Michal while Thomas will grasp for air behind!

You wanna repeat that?

 

[barmaher]

Nice top 10 for the stage. Classics guys and sprinters.

Not really

 

[barmaher]

I am sure it will be corrected, but results appear to show Pinot losing time.

Bit of an anti-climax in the end. Nice win by Thomas though - confirms once again that the guy has real talent for riding classics style races - I wish he'd focus on that. Dumoulin with another mis-timed attack when the race has already gone :Neutral:

Dumoulin is often compared to Wiggins, but while he still has to make a step in the high mountains, Dumoulin is a true dangerman in the hills and can take time and be super agressive there

 

[Valv.Piti]

Results?

 

[TMP402]

Thomas goes solo just before 4.2km to go. Pursuiters gonna pursuit.

So mistimed it earned him 6 bonus seconds.

 

[Alexandre B.]

Pinot desperately weak on hilly finales again.

This rider frustrates me so much.

 

[DNP-Old]

Anyone has a result with more than just the top 9?

Re:

He will never win a gt because he lacks consistency. He can do memorable performances but 2 days later he can be awful and loose important time

 

[barmaher]

The organisation has yet to release stage results. Pretty shoddy.

Exactly. Instead of a stage win and 10 seconds.
