Whoa, that's pretty excellent.

 

[jsem94]

I love Wout, he's brilliant. Hope he lights up the road scene too.

New break created after the sprint. Includes Lars Bak. They're trying to catch up with the front group. Probably in vain though.

 

[SafeBet]

Two groups merge. Peloton doesn't look too fast.

 

[MikeTichondrius]

Lars Bak directing traffic in the break...Made me chuckle.

 

[jsem94]

25 seconds but fresh legs and a double paceline in the front group... not gonna be easy this one.

 

[barmaher]

That is a much more inventive (and seemingly effective) way of getting your colleagues in the break to work.

Surely it benefits the better sprinter in the group though (Oss?) as everybody puts in the same relative effort. I can't imagine the members of the original break will be thrilled about collaborating.

 

[Hugo Koblet]

I think the break will make it. Who's in it?

 

[SafeBet]

Oss has a history of losing sprints he should have won though.

 

[Valv.Piti]

Please catch the break, I want to see the Italian second tier showdown!

I say the break doesn't win.

 

[GuyIncognito]

Let's pretend this was an incredible stage for when gigs shows up

 

[More Strides than Rides]

Movistar chasing. Valverde to contest the sprint?

 

[togo95]

Without Zhupa, they could have made it maybe.

Re: Re:

I say the break doesn't win.

Oh yeah, they won't make it now.

 

[GuyIncognito]

Nizzolo is my prediction for 2nd.

 

[CheckMyPecs]

Re:

They're not chasing, they're keeping their leaders safe at the front.

 

[SafeBet]

Bak goes again.

 

[MikeTichondrius]

Colbrelli out of it

 

[CheckMyPecs]

Anyone put money on Colbrelli today?

 

[SafeBet]

Pippooooooo

 

[GuyIncognito]

LOL Pozzato.

Nizzolo is my prediction for 2nd.

Called it
