Well maybe the hype was a little too much. Still a good ride from the Angel. Podium is still within reach :)

Yeah. But looking at the last few pages it looked like he could challenge Nairo.

Expected that he would pay for his efforts yesterday somewhat. So pretty good ride overall considering what he did yesterday.

No one can challenge Quintana. :p He did great when you compare him to all the other mortals. :)

he looked bad on Stelvio, but managed to do well in the end. He is 23, and in his 2nd season as a pro. trippel HC climbs in one stage is not yet his kind of thing :eek:

Hopefully he will be in the future. He fought hard in the end when he looked dead.

His wings got a little heavy with all the snow but he definitely didn't ride badly today.

Time to recuperate tomorrow, I don't think we've quite seen the end of Fabio lighting up the race yet this Giro.

Another very smart ride today. Looked to be in trouble, but in the end he was one of the strongest after mr. Quintana ofcourse.

Seems to know his limits perfectly

aye, I thought he would drop toghetr with Evans at one point, but he proved to be smart, not following the accelerations from Majka.

As much as I like him, seeing Rolland podium a GT would be even better.

Aru is still young and looks like a GT winner in the future. We knew that.

Funny that Dombrowski beat him at Giro Baby with a weak team, and now look....

I am pretty sure Aru just came back from a knee injury at that time. Not 100% sure though
