Giro D'Italia, Stage 18: Morbegno - San Pellegrino Terme, 151 km

[Parrulo]

isn't capecchi a great descender?

 

[The Hitch]

Wow i thought that guy was going to try and punch Contador.


As it happens it was just a fan trying to touch the Great One for luck. Maybe for healing.

 

[The Hitch]

Visconti goes.

To go twice in a 2 days for the win is impressive. Chapeau.

 

[Ferminal]

Visconti goes.

Thinks he can do a Scarponi M-SR.

 

[El Pistolero]

Man these Italian fans are annoying. Nibali you better watch out at the Vuelta this year.

Someone died this Giro yet they still think they can hit someone without regards to safety for the sole reason that Italian cyclists suck.

 

[Jamsque]

Would have thought Pinotti would try and save as much effort as possible to stay in contention on stage 19+20 and try to win 21

Contador will win stage 21. Book it.

 

[Sasquatch]

Would have thought Pinotti would try and save as much effort as possible to stay in contention on stage 19+20 and try to win 21

He will save his energy on stage 19 and 20. His position on GC doesn't phase him.

it's his home area today, he mentioned this as a target weeks ago

 

[Granville57]

Yikes, I wouldn't want to be the first one around those corners!
I wonder how well these guys know the road. Those rock walls are awfully close.

 

[Ferminal]

Visconti picked up some friends.

 

[YoRUsh]

Well Pinotti should know the road pretty good, and he still nearly missed a corner..

 

[superconfex]

Visconti is still VIXED

 

[Tuarts]

I think you've confused him with Wiggins.

No

Visconti picked up some friends.

Pointless attack is still pointless

 

[Kwibus]

Pointless attack is still pointless

Indeed. No way he can make it.

 

[Granville57]

Anyone getting speeds on this downhill?
Universal hasn't posted anything yet.

 

[YoRUsh]

Indeed! And Bugno on helicopter! Only Giro winners can work in RAI!

Danny Nelissen just told a hilarious story about him on the Dutch Eurosport.
He apparently was so scared in descents he used to start singing to calm himself down..

 

[Ferminal]

Who is G2? Brambilla?

Nice secret climb they are on now...

 

[superconfex]

Peddle that anger out Visconti

 

[Granville57]

There's got to be a lot pressure on Capecchi for this one...

 

[Parrulo]

nibali should give this one a go tbh

 

[roundabout]

There's got to be a lot pressure on Capecchi for this one...

If it comes to a sprint between the 3 he should win quite easily.

 

[Granville57]

Lots of short pulls. The game unfolds...

 

[Jamsque]

4km to go for our fearless leaders, and the mind games begin.

 

[Captain_Cavman]

Pinotti looks very smooth & comfortable.
