Re: Re:

The two Scandies up front still have 2:45. They aren't going to catch them before the hell climb.

They might get caught. I can see some favorites already going all out on the next climb

I agree. Too many riders still there. Quintana perhaps?

Stake and Asgren are strong riders. Well done!

 

[samhocking]

Adam Yates still with Carthy & Kennaugh at back. GB seem to be containing on the climb while while Adam just floats around the back. Interesting tactic, assume he's saving it all for hell?

Re:

What happened to the time splits they usually do when they cross the line?

Ok ignore me, I just seen it. Sorry.

I think a Colombian will go on the next climb, I also have the feeling Nibali will attack and ofc teams like France or Spain have so many options that sending one rider on the attack before the finale would be sensible.

The hammer will go down.

Very big group for a this hard course, this deep in the race.

 

[GuyIncognito]

How are Oliviera and Meurisse still there?
They're decent climbers, but damn

 

[Alexandre B.]

Eight Italians on the last lap.

 

[SlickMongoose]

The Austrians really like their 90's dance anthems.

 

[Rollthedice]

The Italians look prepared to attempt a Sky train.

 

[BlackWhiteEagle]

still 64 guys in the peleton

 

[Poursuivant]

Pozzovivo to attack imminently

 

[Velolover2]

I was counting 68 names in the GC group. Still a lot.

 

[Climbing]

70 riders group, though I guess many are dead.

Agreed, which kind of suggests it hasn't been that hard. I guess that should suit the faster guys more than the pure climbers.

He has my £50, so hope you're right : )

 

[Stella0596]

Italians look strong

You'd think either Colombia or Italy would have wanted to make it tougher by now. Surely neither of them want Alaf or Bala to be fresh near the finish.

 

[Vino attacks everyone]

anoyone ot a good stream? mine are crashing all the time

 

[Climbing]

What a race for the two leaders!
I wouldn't mind them winning !

 

[BlackWhiteEagle]

Choo choo, here comes the Skitaly train

 

[Rollthedice]

Nibali looks bored, not a fan of early wake up.

 

[Velolover2]

Nordic duo lost a minute in a minute.
