Giro d'Italia Stage 15: Mestre - Monte Zoncolan (222km)

[Zoncolan]

Tondo not coming back

 

[Mellow Velo]

Twenty minute Tondo.

 

[The Sheep]

Tondo has a flat?

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

31.7 now,....

it is at 29.3 for me at the moment.

Tondo is going like a snail down this descent

 

[Lance Armstrong]

He's even not trying to get back. So he's out from GC fight.

You could at least try to be normal, sometimes, you know.

 

[Tom T.]

Liquigas could be in trouble by pushing the pace for so long. Smyzd is all they have left to pull for Nibali and Basso. Is he going to pull the entire next climb and the beginning of the Zoncolan? Maybe they'll have someone come back on during the descent who can drill it at the start of the next climb.

Universal showing 28.6 to go right now.

 

[Galic Ho]

Group is getting bigger in the downhill now. Tondo and co are set to return

Wiggins also had to let go by the way

Wigans looked laboured on the climb. He was hurting. Looked like too much for this time of year. He should do the best he can and rest up for stage 16. He may have a slight chance to get another stage win...very slight chance.

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

Evans crashed and abandoned.

I Lol'd

---

Liqui still have 4.

 

[Moondance]

Evans crashed and abandoned.

Ahhh, that made me laugh

 

[trompe le monde]

Has Sastre been dropped?

No, he is with the Liquigas chase group/Maglia Rosa

 

[Tom T.]

Has Sastre been dropped?

No, he's there.

 

[Zoncolan]

Kiserlovski back in the main group for Liqui. They still have men to put on the hurt.

 

[powderpuff]

That is normal for him; if he entered the room any other way we wouldnt believe it was him.

If Liquigas can reduce the peloton more, then it doesn't matter if they have anyone left at the Zoncolan. Nibali or Basso will go on the attack.

 

[Sasquatch]

Evans crashed and abandoned.

You beat me too it. Then I thought I better not in case I'm called Hitler again.

 

[Ferminal]

Porte looked heaps better there.

I think Basso/Evans will be in a class of their own today. Maybe Nibali and Scarponi will join them again.

 

[Sasquatch]

No, he is with the Liquigas chase group/Maglia Rosa

Cheers. I just read somewhere that someone said said he was going off the back on the previous climb!

If Szmyd is setting the pace on the next climb, too, riders might start to come back. Maybe Laeky is going to sacrifice Nibali (Basso'll still need him to descend, though).

 

[auscyclefan94]

That is normal for him; if he entered the room any other way we wouldnt believe it was him.

how long is zoncolan and how long will it take to finish?

 

[RedZone]
