Wow, Porte is losing huge huge time. 3'30" at 45km to go.

Evans is the only one in the front group who isn't pulling yet.

wating of the right moment...and besides hes had to go alone again and again

Evans is the only one in the front group who isn't pulling yet.

Waiting for a BMC teammate to bridge?*












*Not bloody likely.

im not convinced it wont all come back together over the last 40k, some of this fighting on the climb is a little pointless tbh, have they forgotten there is still 40k to go afterwards

Nibali is a very good descender.
Though Vino ain't too shabby either

 

[Publicus]

Uhg! Evans is such an ugly climber when he is out of the saddle. His cadence looks painful.

Yes sir. Nothing fluid about his style.

After the Giro so far, everyone's a bit sick.

 

[saganftw]

Maybe. But hitting Sastre as a soon as possible is a good idea.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

According to the Sporza commentators, the downhill is technical on the lower part. The upper part is easy. Only the last 3/4km are a bit technical, but not much

 

[powderpuff]

alot of umbrellas coming out lets hope it isnt going to be a wet descent

 

[zapata]

so, who is out of it? garzelli dropped pretty early. anyone seen karpets at all today?

 

[ak-zaaf]

Remember when Basso used to smile throughout these types of climbs 4 years ago?

Could see everyone down to Vino staying away.

Yeah, I heard that he has been throwing up and such. You have to wonder if it is just food poisoning or something, or if it is stress related in some way. He really does seem to struggle under pressure.

Ditto!

Have to agree. dometimes he looks like he is flying anf then others he looks terrible.

 

[Spare Tyre]

Rain??? Excellent.

 

[ak-zaaf]

LOL @ Vino and Sastre

 

[zapata]

why would vinokourov attack sastre at this point?

 

[Jamsque]

Look at all those goddamn tifosi.

 

[theyoungest]

Gotta love Sastre. Never give up. Such character this guy has.

 

[Moondance]

so, who is out of it? garzelli dropped pretty early. anyone seen karpets at all today?

Karpets is some ways back, over 2 mins on favorites. Was still with one Katusha guy.

EDIT: As I type he appears. Also a Caisse hanging on.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

has vino ever shown any brain capacity?

 

[Jamsque]

Where on the road is this Karpets group they keep showing?
