[OldCranky]

BBC coverage finally goes to the race.

"We're trying to work out who is at the front"

OK, I'm done. Amateur hour.

 

[Velolover2]

Crashing on this course = You're done.

Thought it was Roglic when the other guy came back for him

 

[BlackWhiteEagle]

Roglic down

Re:

Isn't that a DSQ offence? Seemed like Roglic recognised that and refused his bike.

 

[samhocking]

Horrible negative camber that corner. Lets hope it doesn't decide the final lap.

 

[Cance > TheRest]

Italian assassination

 

[Climbing]

Lopez losing terrain as well.

 

[Rollthedice]

Italy has 4 guys in front on the descent. MAL is done.

 

[Logic-is-your-friend]

Lopez done?

 

[Alexandre B.]

I wonder when the Dutch will start to do something.

When it's too late, no doubt

Dutch tactical sharpness is female only

From the interviews I got the idea there isn't really a plan... like always

 

[Climbing]

That was a nice move on the descent with 3 italians including Nibs.

There was a plan but it's really stupid and they're failing the good part of the plan too.

Plan is basically 'we have 6 leaders'

They'll end up with 2 top 10s and no medals

Next Igls should be interesting. Welcome to the Hotel California, such a lovely place...

Re:

Kwiatkowski already

Dutch gonna do Dutch tactics

It's unfortunately Kwiato tactic's when he isn't in superb shape. Too early.

Sounds like the usually Dutch problem. Too many egos in the team, unwilling to sacrifice themselves.

Which could still be OKish if you really have 6 leaders.

I guess 'the Beasts' refers to Nibali today
