Giro d'Italia Stage 15: Conegliano - Gardeccia-Val di Fassa 229km

[dlwssonic]

Tschopp going for a cima coppi double!

 

[zapata]

Nieve, Sastre et al is only 35 seconds behind Sella, no?

 

[Climbing]

Is that nibbles leading the peleton down the descent?

Nah, that's Agnoli, clearly AC immediatly behind him.

 

[LukeSchmid]

looks like the break has split up. Looked like Sella, Tschopp, Gazelli, Deignan, Seeldrayers, Popovych and Bakelandts. No Neive

Di Luca not Deignan

 

[dlwssonic]

dont think the chasers will make it back. A smaller group is better IMO

 

[Climbing]

Who took the points at the climb?

In the last GPM it was Garzelli, Sella.

leaky should stop chasing...nibs is happy with 2nd place me think..looks like every other day saxobank have help from other team

 

[Buffalo Soldier]

Go Seeldraeyers & Bakelandts.

Finally Seeldraeyers on the front...

Agree. It looks some of the second group are struggling to hold on it as well.

I disagree, I think some of the chasers will come back on the next climb. Especially guyes like Nieve can easily close that gap. They are far superior to the climbers in front

 

[Ferminal]

Who took the points at the climb?

garzelli 9 sella 5... not sure the final 3.

 

[dlwssonic]

Hope the bull makes it back.

 

[zapata]

I think the chasers are connecting. Some of them will be dropped again, of course, but Nieve should be the strongest of these.

 

[thrawn]

Oroz abandons I'm guessing.

 

[Climbing]

garzelli 9 sella 5... not sure the final 3.

Hoogerland for third.

 

[Climbing]

Oroz abandons I'm guessing.

Yes just confirmed.
And everyone back togheter in front.

 

[dlwssonic]

Its about time for a successful early break

 

[Tuarts]

According to the Gazzetta graphic, Deignan, Weening and Hoogerland are in chase group 2 & 3 at the same time. Impressive.

 

[dlwssonic]

Great! break when to 10 min

DT was right, all back together by the looks of it.

 

[valentius borealis]

Oroz abandons I'm guessing.

Well I wouldn't expect the ambulance to return him to where he crashed to get him back into the race.

 

[wirral]

Was that a Lampre rider feeling up Contador?

 

[dlwssonic]

rain again on the passo di giau. Favor the break??

 

[zapata]

Aramendia dropped from the break. Probably closed the gap for nieve

I've not watched Eurosport the entire Giro, really digging these Turkish Airlines commercials.
