39th Route du Sud 2015

[Escarabajo]

If Contador comes to this race, I'll be shocked if he tries hard. I bet he soft pedals. Don't put any hope with him on any battle for this race.

Re:

I will be in England during the Route du Sud. Does anyone have any ideas where I would find coverage while there? Does EuroSport carry it? Thanks!

I don't think there was any coverage over here of the race last year.

Cool story

 

[SeriousSam]

May well be true, even if Quintana worshippers consider him to be the best climber since 2013. He seemed frightened of exposing himself at Romandie.

 

[Electress]

I might go to watch this since I'm scheduled to be in France. So Contador better start !

I'm looking forward to see what Hesjedal can do( if he participate in the Route du Sud) after his Giro's performance. Quintana-Contador-Hesjedal will be a great battle.

Re: Re:

Easy edition. Looks like a good race for contador to get back for.

Meh, I think it's obvious Valverde will win this if he starts

Port de Bales is a hard climb and I will make differences. 20-30s might be much more than enough to get alone

Nobody is getting 20-30s on Valverde at Port de Bales

Unless he drops a chain

Watch out, eshnar might delete your post

Congratulation!

I guess it has a lot to do with Contador's participation, but it'd be great if it would get broadcast regularly in the future.

Wonder if Porte will ride this race ....not at the Dauphine & not down to ride Suisse....surely would need a race before the Tour if for no other reason that to show his team that his form is worth a selection ???

It would help if Sky were given a place in the race!

I am sure if they expressed an interest they would be ...

And many other "big names" to come

 

[jens_attacks]

mythical alo jakin!!!!!!!!!

 

[De Snelle Duif]

Funny way to highlight past performances in the region. Judging by these, I wouldn't call Coquard a contender! It's cool that they do it though, I hope Jakin wins with his good form!

 

[Antoine_Blondin]

On ESPN, Nairo Quintana has confirmed its participation.

Quintana with his impressive palmares at his age.
