Re: Re:

Nice for old man Valverde to have 15 doms

Funny thing is that Dan Martin will probably start the final climb around 40th position

Yes, he never manages to start the climb well positioned, no matter how many teammates he has.

The genius tactic is to ride Cherave as hard as possible so the 30 man peloton that remains enables Dan Martin to start the Mur in 35th place.

Re: Re:

Lol, UAE doing all the work again. I just can't take these races seriously anymore.

Dan Martin is going to get Yamcha'd by Valverde and it will be great to see.

Talks like Goku, wrecked like Yamcha

Valverde is more like Saitama.. one punch man

i think this one is a more accurate representation of Valverde at the start of the Mur:

Are UAE really gonna waste Ulissi and Costa in order to give Martin another "nice" 2nd or 3rd place?

Re: Re:

A shame lil' Chiaotzu isn't here. He just learned how to sprint and got 3rd in the Tour of Alps.

This Dragon Ball talk is rather funny - to me - as I've been having a bit of a "Dragon Ball spree" lately. :lol:

I´m loving this turn into Anime.

 

[tobydawq]

Interesting. I have never seen this before.

 

[Red Rick]

Interesting group taking off.

 

[Zinoviev Letter]

Not going anywhere. Landa and Costa sitting on.

 

[Red Rick]

This doesn't work at this point in the race. It has potential if you ride up the Mur hard and then attack on the flat after.

 

[DFA123]

Good to see teams trying things from far out with big riders for a change. Probably won't work this time, but if they keep on attacking for the last 50km, one move may break the elastic.

 

[Netserk]

Ag2r to the rescue!

 

[RedheadDane]

Ag2R, stop being silly!

 

[Climbing]

It will work only if they shell riders on climbs and then attack with big guns.

 

[Red Rick]

And this is why you don't do the work for Movistar in the first 150km

This seems agressive. Did I turn on the wrong race?

If he started the final climb in 1st position he would end up finishing 40th

WHAT IS HAPPENING?

 

[Samamba]

Big group now

 

[burning]

Wait, people are attacking?

 

[Netserk]

I'm sure Rojas intimidates them! :lol:

 

[therhodeo]

What the hell am I watching???

Vintage Nibali?
