I'm sick and tired of people calling the race pathetic already at the midpoint! Wait till the end, then talk if you don't like it!

Doping für die Haare. They should have still had that commercial... it was magical.

Man, so tired of that Bora commercial with Sagan and Majka.

And now the Flecha part...

I think this last week is a perfect example for how a bad route can influence the racing. This is the third stage in a row where riders were all over the road extremely early on but at the end nothing happens before the final climb. We just had a climb where the peloton was reduced to 8 riders 8 (!!!) kilometers from the top of the climb but it was not possible to use that situation for an attack. If they had used the southern side of the Grappa the race would probably look completely differently right now.

Rubbish. We have one of the weakest GC fields in memory. Riders with very little panache or will. Placement boys all over the place.

Katusha did the best they could but since Zaks descending is weak he can't really push on. Quintana playing the waiting game like normal.

I think this more about how good riders are and how they race each stage.What exciting you could expect from Quintana?Nibali is just not who was a few yrs ago etc.
