Giro d'Italia Stage 16: San Vigilio di Marebbe - Kronplatz (ITT) 12.9km

[trompe le monde]

I think Garzelli's time will stand up. As I stated earlier in the thread, Garzelli last won a stage at the Giro three years ago. Congratulations Stefano.

Can someone make him stop that? I didn't want to say anything, but it is starting to wind me up.

Basso lost a significant chunk of time today. Not huge, but significant.

Evans only 42 seconds behind Basso on GC now. That's the final TT...

Evans only 42 seconds behind Basso on GC now. That's the final TT...

Most of the the final TT is up and down a climb.

Basso has won himself the Giro.

Game, set and match, Ivan Basso.

Yeah I would say evans will be about 30-45 secs better on the last ITT.
This makes things very interesting.

However Basso get's to dictate how the stages will play out, because of his team.

 

[Mellow Velo]

So, the ITT basically made almost nil difference. A handful of seconds between the main protagonisti.

 

[dresch]

Hahaha Cadel stuffing up. I seem to recall every single Evans lover saying he would rip this apart and the course would suit him and that no one would match him.

Good to see.

Have it! haha.
