Giro 2013 Stage 11: Tarvisio (Cave del Predil) - Vajont 1963/2013 (Erto e Casso)

[will10]

Petrov is closest on GC at 13 minutes so Astana will let 'em ride.

 

[SafeBet]

Perfect break for astana.

 

[taiwan]

Martens ftw from that lot.

 

[Geraint Too Fast]

Vino went through the teams in alphabetical order and told them all put one rider in the break, unfortunately the letter L isn't in the Kazakh alphabet.

 

[Kazistuta]

Lotto fail?

My pick is Di Luca as well. If Pirazzi can keep it in his pants, he will be a good pick also.

I hope for Martens, Oss, Petrov or Puccio.

 

[SafeBet]

Cassani saying petrov is 7 minutes back in the gc, not 13.


Edit: ok he was wrong, 13 minutes confirmed.

 

[Netserk]

YEEEEEEEEEEEES

Danilo in the break of the day!




Obvious Killer win is obvious

 

[l.Harm]

Vrecer Weird move.

 

[Afrank]

Really hope Killer can pull it off, Vini need to get their first win in this Giro already!

 

[manafana]

bit too much love for Di Luca me for one hope he cant win.

plenty in this break that he could find one too good.

 

[Zam_Olyas]

Since Di Luca gets a lot of love

 

[Sylvester]

Aupa Egoi!

But if it's an easy climb, a lot of riders from this break can win.

 

[virandociclista]

it is look like only the Gc rides are not in the break!

 

[Geraint Too Fast]

Gretsch trying to do a Belkov.

 

[FellOff]

Thanks jens_attacks, I knew nothing about this.

"Vajont, in terms of loss of life, is the biggest landslide disaster in Europe in the last century, and it has probably been the most important landslide of all time"

Bisonte looks smooth.

 

[Netserk]

Who was on the phone? (rai)

 

[Sasquatch]

Gretsch could very well go solo here, but if he doesn't have more than 1:30 at the climb, then a climber could catch him. But the climb looks too easy that a gap of a minute could be enough anyway.

 

[Hugo Koblet]

Gretsch won't hold on. He looks awful and he doesn't even open the gap to the chasing groups which seems to be taking it easy. He will probably need at least 2 minutes at the bottom of the climb.

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Who was on the phone? (rai)

Gianni Savio (just now)

 

[the asian]

Cobo in the breakaway today ! Hope he can get a top 10 in the stage.

re. vajont dam disaster

'Throughout the summer of 1960, minor landslides and earth movements were noticed; however, instead of heeding these warning signs, the Italian government chose to sue the handful of journalists reporting the problems for "undermining the social order."

how very italian lol

 

[Netserk]

Di Luca!!! _O_

 

[TourOfSardinia]

di luca tries at least

 

[lemoogle]

will anything happen in the peloton in the last climb? or is it just too easy of a climb?
