Riders I reckon can handle themselves on such a climb in GC:

1 Giampaolo Caruso
3 Oliver Zaugg +10"
4 Vladimir Karpets +14"
8 Samuel Sánchez +22"
9 Ezequiel Mosquera +22"
13 Vincenzo Nibali +27"
14 Robert Kiserlovski +27"
15 David Arroyo +29"
28 Igor Antón +55"
29 Cayetano Sarmiento +1'04"
31 Michele Scarponi +1'04"
52 Stefano Garzelli +2'19"


After last year's showdown on Lagunas de Neila, where Soler, over a minute back, escaped with Mosquera, but knew he had to drop the older man, but split everything down to Valverde, Danielson, Rodríguez, Masciarelli and Tondó behind... I'd say that everybody here has a chance of going for at least the stage win. Garzelli's out of the GC race, but any one of the others can still carry hope.

Sarmiento!

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Kruijswijck was just with the best 6

 

[icefire]

Antón dropped from the leading group

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Nibali classical crack

 

[icefire]

Samu gets it!

 

[Waterloo Sunrise]

Sanchez for stage and overall then.

Good show by Possoni, makes you wonder how he didn't make the tour team with climbing like that.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Sanchez taking the double.

Poor Mosquera though. He did most of the work in shedding Nibali

He was carrying a knee injury from giro. What was top 10 ? Just at work can't find out much

[Dekker_Tifosi]

The top 10's that show online at the moment aren't the correct ones so far. None of them have the order/gaps right and are even missing a few.

The GC seems to be in order though

edit: joy beat me to it

Hidden between the Gesink and Mollema hype, it appears we have another gem coming up. Kruijswijk puts the Carusos, Kiserlovskis, and Sicards in their place.

 

[Libertine Seguros]

Fantastic race there. I love that climb, and feel that it is seriously underutilised.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Organiser error. They gave Sicard the trophy for best neo-professional, but, Kruijswijk, also a neo, has a better classification and should have that.

You serious? First we don't get to see him, and now they'll just ignore him altogether?

Agree completely. The sad thing is that I can think just now of 10-15 mountain tops that are even more difficult and spectacular in Spain, and which have been never touched by the Tour of Spain. In the region of Ancares and El Bierzo alone I can think of 5 incredible climbs in lenght and steepness, passing through spectacular areas.

And are the local authorities willing to pay for a Vuelta stage finish? Or is there even space to have a finish?
