Re: Re:

how do you know majka has nothing to loose? he is not a GT winner,so getting top 5 is probably as far as his goals can go

Good thing he has not 1 not 2 not 3 but 4 minutes on Jungels then.

Re: Re:

And my point relates to the initial post, he cannot as he like everyone else is suffering after a very tough Giro and in particular a very tough stage yesterday.

I don't think you're fully grasping the meaning of "nothing to lose".

Surely the abundance of WT teams means that points are essential. Only understandable that Majka doesn't risk his position and potentially lower his market value.

When do we think Nibali has to attack to win the MR

 

[trevim]

Boaro still leading the group. OK I think it's safe to call it a snooze today

 

[Eyeballs Out]

Dombro should just let Atapuma do the riding (for GC)

Much later than this

 

[rehy90]

this is not how the fight for the overall win should look like

 

[Kokoso]

Horrified Majka looking at his teammates pulling

Depends on how good he is. I'd say at the station, but if he has the legs, why not go before?

 

[damian13ster]

Soooo slow in the GC group. Anti-climax. Wtf is going on with Astana?

Re: Re:

Can you translate what Ivan "advised" to Vincenzo?

He said that Nibali is very good at being at the right place at the right time, and that he hopes that Nibali will be able to "catch the right moment" today.
He also said that the he expexct thing to happen near the top of this climb and in the descent right after.

Thanks a lot

3-5Km before the top of this climb

Watching the peloton climb isn't terribly exciting I have to say

Risky strategy.

 

[Andro]

Folly dropped from the chasers. No double stage win for him.

 

[Pippo_San]

I guess everyone is spent today...

If he can immediately drop chaves even 3 km from the top could be enough. He can get about 20 seconds on the lombarde, 10 on the descent and 20 on the last steep ascent. But since he doesnt know how strong chaves is he should definitely attack earlier.

 

[ILovecycling]

I wonder what Vincenzo prepared for us
(unless legs are bad)

 

[Andro]

Kangert seems to be riding for the stage win.

 

[carolina]

astana finally

Wonder what his value as a GC leader will be after this Giro...
