Giro d'Italia 2011 Stage 17: Feltre - Tirano 230km

[Moncoutie]

I still think Visconti could have got through there, there was room.

 

[Hartog]

Pretty sure Ulissi will get this. Visconti had no good reason to try and pass him on the left.

 

[will10]

Visconti takes his hands off the bars twice = DQ

 

[Bye Bye Bicycle]

Visconti is such an idiot.

 

[hfer07]

Visconti almost pushed over Ulissi mid-sprint if that had been a mass sprint someone would've been seriously injured there's no way they can let him have the win it was just to dangerous, regardless if he was right or not.

but it wasn't-Ulisi was pushing viciously Visconti against the barriers-what would you expect him to do? smile & let him go through?

 

[ak-zaaf]

I think that they'll give it to Ulissi, his sprint didn't seem that bad.
Visconti was overreacting, shouldn't have tried the left side there.

 

[Waterloo Sunrise]

They should both be Dq'd.

Odds of 2 Italians being Dq'd to get a Spaniard win, in a Giro where Spain is embarassing Italy? Zero.

If Visconti had stuck to his right hand lane he should have won this sprint easily with no issues.

 

[superconfex]

Ulissi DID NOTHING WRONG

Pass on the right side instead of getting yourself in problems?

 

[Ferminal]

Visconti should be gone for that, fool, give the win to Ulissi

 

[will10]

Ulissi DID NOTHING WRONG

He changed his line, but not much. Should get the stage

 

[boomcie]

Hands of the handelbars, he's fvcked.
Ulissi was in his right.

 

[spalco]

Ulissi DID NOTHING WRONG

I think it's borderline, I would understand it either way.

 

[Ramira]

Looking at it again, if Lastras had been one wheel further forward with his front wheel next to Ulissi's rear at the time Visconti pushed Ulissi at least one of them if not both would've crashed.

Visconti DQ'ed it's official.

Viciously?!
Come on, he hardly left his line. Visconti took the wrong side and proved to be an idiot by his reaction.

 

[Eyeballs Out]

Don't see how they can let Visconti keep it - it would be open-season in sprints if they did

 

[killswitch]

Visconti is dq'ed.

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

Visconti disqualified. rightly so.

 

[will10]

Ulissi wins, Visconti demoted to 3rd. Right decision IMO.

 

[YoRUsh]

Visconti DQed

 

[Ferminal]

Idiot Visconti!

 

[Francois the Postman]

Good call.

 

[Jamsque]

Visconti relegated to 3rd place.

 

[Moondance]

Visconti is DQ, Ulissi wins.

Visconti should be ejected from the race, if they stick to the Renshaw-doctrine.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Viciously?!
Come on, he hardly left his line. Visconti took the wrong side and proved to be an idiot by his reaction.

Indeed

Deserved win by Ulissi!
