Re:

Will it come down to a sprint, or are the better climbers able to just tire everyone up on these small precentages?

If i were a climber, that is what i would try to do.

Polanc is gonna win the Giro

 

[Gigs_98]

So Polanc is only a few seconds behind Nibali in virtual gc? Can he get pink? :lol:

Re:

brutt is done

Breaks my heart. The guy has been part of almost every break. It seems like today is teh day a breakaway will win. Now, it is likely the winner is in the chase group

 

[46&twoWheels]

judging from the comments chronology of this thread from 12 noon to 3 pm the entire world was shut down

 

[SafeBet]

Mohoric alone in front.
Chasers around 2'10" behind.
Peoloton @ 13'50".

Screw it, I'm away for a bike ride

 

[klintE]

Virtual GC now:
Dumoulin
Quintana 0'31''
Polanc 1'07''
)

 

[Netserk]

If they can, Sunweb should try to put Polanc in pink by a minute or something like that.

 

[SafeBet]

Is Polanc with the first group of chasers though?

 

[Laplaz]

Maglia rosa virtuale now for Polanc.

Alas, other teams will step in before that happens

 

[Gigs_98]

No he is not.

Proof?

I am just curious who first will start consider Polanc as dangerous for GC, probably not top 3 guys but positions like Mollema,Yates or Jungels can be in risk at the end of Giro if they will let him go so much today

If they do anything it all they should do it during the last 10-15km then and let Sunweb chase as long as possible.
