Long range attacks from Finestre could be succesful (Kruiswijk, Hesjedal, Betancur, Intxausti etc)

I would love to see Betancur win but I don't think he has the legs.

This was one of my favorite stages in 2005 when Salvodelli rode brilliantly to salvage his Giro after being put into difficulty on the Finestre.
His descent that day was magnificent. What a stage that was. Hopefully we'll see a proper battle tomorrow as well.

lol what? he took back a massive 10 seconds not to mention he couldn't even drop ardila and van huffel in the descent

Still butthurt about Rujano, I see.

why don't you try and stay with the facts and show exactly where savoldelli rode that excellent descent?

Contador may be one of those attacking long distance. Exhaust his team within the first 6-7 km of the climb and then go by himself.

Some problems for Visconti. The Italian goes back to the car, and the mechanic gets the scissors out and snips the side of his bib shorts. Perhaps they were a bit too tight.

Didn't notice that.
Now the mechanics have to be tailors as well.

Re:

Looks like a fast pace now, maybe AC didnt lie this time

Dont be fooled by this. We said the exact same thing before Madonna.

He has been playing chess why it is 50/50 attack or going conservately.

Savoldelli got good help by Mauricio Ardila, who actually saved him on the gravel.

Rujano should've attacked earlier. If the climb to Sestriere had just been about 3 kilometers longer, he actually would've won that Giro!

What saved Savolldelli his fuchsia jersey was the fact that Di Luca went way to fast on the Finestre. He killed himself, but also Garate, Honchar etc. which were dropped and weren't able to help Rujano + Simoni anymore.

I've watched that stage about 5 times as this is my mystical mountain stage to remember. Like it's Aprica 94, Les Deux Alpes 98, Sestiere 92 etc. for the older ones!

[Taxus4a]

Geniez won this year tro Bro Leon, si finestre must motivate him, but today is for other guys.

 

[Ataraxus]

Lol. Rai still saying "the battle between Aru and Contador today"

 

[Marco Pantani]

C'mon Landa last chance to show what you got.

The fact that he closed the gap considerably to the leaders isn't enough? Stop being purposefully obtuse.

Re:

He showed he got way more than anybody knew he has before this Giro.

 

[Rollthedice]

Tiralongo ready to drop all of Tinkoff bar Bertie.

 

[Moose McKnuckles]

Tiralongo is still Contador's gregario.

[Cance > TheRest]

Froome-jam looks good, but 40 seconds??!

 

[Andro]

Zakarin sprinting up the mountain. It would be hilarious if he went full *** and won the stage.
