Re:

Gaan met die banaan

With 14 k on flat to the finish he can come back, I dont see how he can loose the Giro.

If you're cooked and alone, you will likely just lose even more time on the flat, even if you're a good TT'er.

Well he was gone very early. So I'm hoping just a light illness because of exhaustion. But no idea what actually happened.

 

[Forever The Best]

Hoe many riders are in the peloton? 30-35?

This.

Nobody noticed as well that Dumoulin lost 30 seconds in the flat part at Pianco yesterday... almost as much as he lost on the climb itself.

Re:

people have said over 10 times now giro is over in the past 4 days or so.

what is wrong with you.. if the last days have proven anything it's that the giro is far from over. Dumoulin could have a bad climb. Pinot could have a super day. Hell even crazy Zak could solo away, win 2 minutes and win the whole thing. Imagine that

The funniest comments were these two from two days ago, literally posted seconds after Quintana attacked with 53 km to go:

GC over

I think Nairo just won the giro

 

[huangho]

About 30 riders on peloton ATM

 

[Irondan]

Gap is coming down really fast!

 

[Cance > TheRest]

Spectacular piece of road, this Foza-climb.

 

[Red Rick]

Movistar pace barely dropping anybody.

Yep doesn't matter how good a TT'er you are you won't beat a few riders on the flat after riding half a climb on your own.

 

[portugal11]

Movistar is cooked

More like a goat path..

Katusha nowhere near the front of the group now, weird.

 

[Jelantik]

it's still big group. Dooms for Quintana if he doesn't start doing anything

 

[huangho]

Re:

Kiserlovski had a mechanical earlier in the climb

 

[Dazed and Confused]

The "climbers" will likely suck wheels all the way up I fear.....

 

[rainman]

Pass me a bucket Hatch, ridiculous pace? Zak save this from a club run

Re:

Zaka lost kiserlovski - mechanical the bottom of the climb. He is isolated now.

Two Katusha riders near the back, but moving up.

Well yeah, but Zakarin being in 25th position still seems weird.

 

[GuyIncognito]

Ewan and Greipel regretting quitting right now

If anyone fancies winning this they need to get their domestiques on the front sprinting asap, this constant good tempo won't do
