Hats off to Polanc!

 

[Asero831]

Uran will have to thank Movistar

 

[SeriousSam]

Ryder attacks!

 

[Cance > TheRest]

Visconti turning into a GC contender? :O

 

[Moose McKnuckles]

This sprint should be fun.

 

[Amsterhammer]

Another example why the Giro is so much more fun to watch than the Tour!

 

[Rollthedice]

Bertie in pink.

Landa - what a legend!

 

[Marco Pantani]

This bodes well.

Oh boy.

Re:

Urgh, Porte. I like Froome a lot, but for some reason I still can't stand Porte. There is something mechanical about him.

And Froome isn't?!!?

 

[gunara]

So quickly turn into a three-horse race

 

[arvc40]

Contadors attack was savage. Your not going to drop him.

 

[Lord Stanley]

Wow! What a stage!

And the GPS is a huge embarrassment.

 

[Cance > TheRest]

hmmm.. Aru not the cleanest sprint.

What I predicted in yesterdays thread

 

[Taxus4a]

Amazing work for Landa, I am not surprised, becouse i know well him and I have a friend sometimes train with him.

indeed, but this is not the subforum for that discussion.

 

[Jelantik]

finally... orica didn't get the pink jersey! thank God. It's better goes Astana, so they will spend time controlling the breakaway.

oh.. boy. TS got the pink now. Tomorrow they should just let the other climber team take it.

Re:

Nominating for the saddest post in this thread.

When Contador went it seems only Aru, Porte, Chaves and Landa tried to follow. The rest just formed a group and did not even really try to do too much. Everyone is racing for fourth already.

 

[Miburo]

How was Contador bad or almost dropped?

Some must have seen a different stage.

Contador's attack was good, not 2011 giro level but solid. Only stage 5 and not a hard climb.

I'm more worried that contador will lose the leaders jersey to aru cause of boni sec in the next stages. Something that never happened before to contador in a GT.

Does anyone else thinks Aru starts his sprints too early?
Yesterday I thought he's just miscalculated the effort, but today happened the same, although the outcome is better.
