Re:

They're on the 6-7 % sections now. Landa riding much faster than Contador. He could have had a minute more right now if he hadn't waited.

Yes, what a ridiculous decision, 50" flushed down the drain for no good reason, it's not like anyone in that chasing group was going to help him.

EDIT - ah, Aru seems to have woken up now, odd...

 

[staubsauger]

WTF!? He could've simply cracked Zakarin. It's unbelievable. Never saw such a pathetic decision!

Astana have shown themselves to be a bunch of idiots. You can do so much in cycling but you cannot inject brains.

Re:

Belgian commentators saying Vino and Tinkov are discussing something at the finish line now; they can see it from where they are commentating

With their bodyguards.

Re:

I really really really hope that someone else than Aru or Landa wins this stage. I have never seen a worse tactical disposition than this.

Uran for the win.

 

[ILovecycling]

Rigo like I said?

Where is he?

Re:

So given that Mikel isn't allowed to ride away from the Italian Chosen One, who do we favour out of this group

Like I keep saying, Uran.

Probably done the least work of all of them so far, and getting stronger each day.

 

[Irondan]

Astana pulls off a cycling 'Epic Fail'! Can't wait to see the video..

 

[SafeBet]

Anyone but the Astana duo please win the stage.

 

[Hugo Koblet]

Surely Tinkov must have made a phone call to Martinelli...

Kangert looks like he could drop Contador.

 

[SeriousSam]

lol zakarin grinning for the cameras

 

[Rollthedice]

Landa is crap on the flat, Zakarin did'd do a thing and maybe Aru's group just caught them.

 

[Moose McKnuckles]

Contador with 5k to go.

 

[rm7]

It can't be that Contador is in such a bad form.. he have been on pair or slighly below Landa in this race, but much stronger than Aru.

He haven't been eating enough or something. Sugar crisis.

 

[Amsterhammer]

Heads must surely roll at Astana after this epic managerial tactical fail.

Re: Re:

pulling the Amador's group

 

[Irondan]

Contador settles down, looking rosy in pink!

 

[webvan]

Aru leads -> Bertie gets time back, hehe...

Re:

Astana's tactics are ridiculous. Landa's attack was totally pointless now that Aru's group has caught up. I *almost* feel bad for Landa. Almost.

And of course Astana, before Landa attack, totally expected that Aru will be able to outclimb Contador. It's very easy to sit behind a computer and be a wise guy after the fact.

 

[arvc40]

9 GT baby !

 

[ggusta]

message boards are so bipolar! a half hour ago, ac was going to lose the giro, now astana are idiots. hilarious,

Belive me, A lot of the Astana group is at the finish line. Only a stage victory would be a good showing today
