37° Volta ao Algarve 2011 (708k) Feb 16 to 20

[Squire]

I see most bookies have Gilbert down as favourite for this stage. What are his chances of holding on to yellow (or whatever colour the leader's jersey is)? He came here because he was lacking form, but he certainly doesn't seem too be too bad. Judging from results from previous years, this will be a bit too hard for him though.

 

[TeoSheva]

this stage has tiago machado written all over it.only alberto will follow him but will lose the sprint.

I don't think so... I bet on Gilbert... and the surprise can be Tony Martin: if he will stay close to the firsts, ha has a lot of chance to win the GC

Km 115 - Martin Maaskant (Garmin), Jesse Sargent (Radioshack), Antony Ravard (AG2R), William Clarke (United health care), Jarl Salomein (Topsport) follow with 2m15s. Ruben Martinez (Caja Rural) has been achieved by the platoon commanded by Tavira-Prio. We are about a dozen miles from the mountain the second count of the day. The Tavira struggling but is difficult to undo the advantage of the escapees ...

Google translation not mine

 

[Ryaguas]

Soon SBS or Astana will take the lead to control de race...
Da Shack must be preparing something as well

 

[Parrulo]

worrie do not

the savior has arrived.

i can translate stuff from now on ^_^

jornalciclismo's server is a joke XD

anyway i agree with this stage going to machado. andre cardoso will be up there too or tavira wouldn't be working. the guy is epic. have you ever seen the video of his job on the torre last year?

[TourOfSardinia]

It's vaguely disconcerting that Volta ao Algarve translates into Tour Of California using google translate!

 

[TeoSheva]

160km done

 

[Parrulo]

"Km 165 - Sucedem-se os ataques na frente de corrida e o pelotão dividiu-se em dois grandes grupos. A corrida está ao rubro. É a RadioShack que comanda o primeiro grup"

sucession of attacks

peloton has split. RS leads the first group

 

[jens_attacks]

radioshack at the front so klodi or tiago?i want both to win

 

[Parrulo]

Km 166 - A RadioShack continua a liderar o grupo com toda a força e ganha rapidamente vantagem sobre o segundo pelotão: 1m50s!

RS keeps leading the first group and gains a lot of advantage on the peloton.

1:50 ahead

 

[Parrulo]

for tiago i guess

"A corrida entra nos últimos 30 quilómetros com o pelotão dividido em dois grandes grupos. A RadioShack deverá ter Tiago Machado, o seu trunfo, no primeiro pelotão"


the race enters the last 30 km's with the peloton split in 2 main groups. TS must have Tiago machado has their best bet on the first group.

this translation could be better

Klödi is one of my favourites, but I'm cheering for Machado today. He could win me £50. Come on Radioshack!

 

[jens_attacks]

radioshack driving like in the good old us postal days.looking good.

 

[Martin]

this translation could be better

1km = 1mile.
it's not just a translator it's also strange calculator... seems like some version 1.0.0.

 

[Parrulo]

Km 169 - A corrida continua acelerada. Agora o pelotão dividiu-se entre três grandes grupos. Os favoritos seguem à cabeça num pelotãode cerca de 80 unidades liderados pela Saxo Bank e pela RadioShack. A 3m50s segue um segundo grupo e, por fim, um terceiro grupo perseguidor.

pace is high atm. the peloton is split in 3 groups. the first group has roughly 80 riders and has all the favourites in there. 2 others group are behind and don't matter so no need to translate that part


Não temos notícias de favoritos nos grupos atrasados

no news of favourites left behind

 

[Barrus]
