It is raining, and It is going to rain most of the stage.

Break at the climb

GERPeter, J.
MOVSoler, J.
AFCVervaeke, L.
EKPGalvan Fernandez, F.
RLYMurphy, K.

Not very dangerous for GC, but who knows

Quickstep and Bora will have an interest to control that break. So I assume they won´t give them more then 3 minutes..

 

[noob]

Lol the only thing I have expected in this race was Soler to attack and obviously he has already done so

100 last Km are quite hilly, so I dont think will be just a question of give time. Those teams will need enough strenth to catch the break. and in that case maybe the peloton will be pretty reduced- so the stage is interesting. I expected more figh on the climb, but anyway some riders dropped and the break have 2 strong names.

 

[noob]

Ah, finally I know what happened yesterday in that crash. (But how embarrasing QS press people doesn't know the difference between Morkov and Archibald!)

It might be between Soler and Almeida and Cavagna then. QS has spoken about using Almeida and Cavagna on the hillier stages.

I'd love to see Soler Almeida fight, even weirder as they're soon teammates

If that happen in this stage with Soler at the break, it will mean it has been a very selective one, and I think is not so selective, but who knows.

Nah it's my wishful thinking only. I think they are fun riders to watch

 

[noob]

Cavagna, Archibald, Greipel among others in crash

All back on their bikes though. Hope no one is hurt.

 

[Taxus4a]

I hope so...O Connor and Zabel were involved as well. It was a wet cobble section.

 

[Earns1985]

Live pictures now

Miserable weather conditions.. Bora and Bahrain chasing..

Talk about growing a mullet for nothing

 

[noob]

It's a much tougher stage than I imagined, but I think they will catch Soler breakaway soon

 

[Earns1985]

Fantastic to see the third category Continental team P&S Metalltechnik drilling the peleton..

 

[Taxus4a]

I cant se the stage on TV, but about 40 ridders are ddropped as the peloton acelerates, Teh break will be maybe catch but for a selective group.

 

[WKA311]

P&S showing they're the local team. Nice racing. Stark seems to be their protected rider.

 

[Taxus4a]

Could someone describe de situation?
After P&S stoped, did the group of Froome come back?

I see a video with wind, rain and coblle stone section beside the hills. so nice and of course at the end selective stage.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Stark has been a strong rider in lower ranked races this year, but his PCS profile pic keeps scaring me.
He looks like a mix between Dobby the elf and a James Bond villain.

 

[Unterlenkerfahrend]

This is impressive from Vervaeke, didn't know that he finished 20th in the Giro GC this year. Nothing special but still interesting.

 

[noob]

Whoa hard finish in horrible weather!

 

[Earns1985]

Ackermann and Bauhaus still in 5th and 7th position. Only one hill left..

 

[Tim Cahill]

Kristoff has just spent the last 10 years popping up and winning races

 

[roundabout]

Kristoff is still a rainman

 

[Faserr]

That was perfect for Kristoff. Winning again.
