MS to take responsibility to chase down Lopez and Landa

Re: Re:

Why isn't MTS working for Yates??

They're trying to force Roglic to work. Unfortunately there is Trek...

That would be quite amateuristic... expecting Roglic to take the lead

Not really. It's like a game of chicken.

 

[HelloDolly]

Surprised MS have not used their numbers better to attack on climb .. Yates is far back on GC

and now chasing Landa & MAl :surprised:

GO JASHA YOUR BEAUTY OF A GERMAN

 

[WKA311]

The Sütterlin-Boaro Express takes off.

 

[Cance > TheRest]

That's a nice duo to assist on the flat, Jasha and Boaro

Re: Re:

Roglic team is too weak. Gonna be a big problem for him.

Yeah both two designated super helpers are not even here anymore, Gesink and De Plus. I'm thinking with today's pace they would both still be up there with the leaders or at least one of them. Roglic now pretty much like Tom D like, with having to ride for himself.

As long as other teams chases its no problem for him, but surely they will have to make him chase at some point during upcoming stages?

Right now he doesnt have the jersey. Could work out for him.

landa and lopez have got fk all of a gap

 

[sir fly]

UAE team's having a great Giro.

 

[Red Rick]

Nibali wants other GC riders to at least half ass work.

 

[Salvarani]

Why is Majka pulling?

Why is anybody pulling other than Roglic or MS, with 3 riders in the group.

 

[spalco]

Do Landa and MAL really have 2 minutes on the "peloton" or am I misinterpreting the GPS times?

eta: ah, I forgot the maglia rosa is behind, nevermind.

Re:

Isn't it +30 seconds at least? They are working pretty badly together

 

[Forever The Best]

Re:

Yates: Really looking forward to the mountains so I can gain back time

Also Yates: Sit in the group and close things down with his domestiques

Agreed, Yates should have either attacked or they should have just followed wheels all team.

 

[Salvarani]

MS should just sit up

 

[Salvarani]

Zakarin puncture btw

 

[Cance > TheRest]

Is TGBM even in the Nibali-Roglic group?

 

[HelloDolly]

Bulk-a Mull-aima ..what a tactician

 

[Salvarani]

Roglic the only one not helping lol

 

[woodburn]

Amazing they're not making Roglic do most of the work. It benefits all the people behind him if Landa and Lopez gain time.

 

[Pharazon]

if Roglic behaves like this the rest of the giro he's really going to piss me off

 

[Lequack]

What advantage does Landa and MAL have?
Update: seems like 40 seconds ahead, that's quite a good advantage.

 

[Valv.Piti]

Re:

Is TGBM even in the Nibali-Roglic group?

Nope, but I think the group is catching up

 

[luckyboy]

Why would Roglic work? The attackers are 5+ minutes down and far more of a threat to other riders in the group, and it's better for him to stay out of pink for another day at least.

Re:

What advantage does Landa and MAL have?

About 35 seconds.
