Giro d'Italia Stage 4: Savigliano - Cuneo (TTT) 32.5km

[Franklin]

BMC isn't surprising me considering the Prologue team standings. To be honest I expected them to be even better.. a TTT is something different than windswept nervous racing on dutch roads (where they completely imploded for sure).

As it stands now I expect BMC to loose a lot of time.

 

[auscyclefan94]

Sky 4 seconds faster than Katusha

Boring Me Cadel will lose 1/2 minutes I think

sky and katusha are no overall threat to gc so that is no big deal.

 

[Moondance]

It looks like Sky is the only team experiencing rain.

Guess it's just the middle part of the course that's really being rained on.

 

[Jamsque]

Sky has basically sent Wiggo out to ride a 33km ITT and has seven guys hanging on to his wheel.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Androni blew up. Nowhere near the time of BMC

 

[auscyclefan94]

androni have slowed big time!!!!
cervelo losing riders!

 

[Moondance]

Yes... .Androni faded just like I said.

Point to moi

The rain cloud is moving with them

 

[Tyke1968]

Looks like a rain cloud is following SKY.

They are down to 7 men now according to Harmon.

Quite.

more characters

 

[sportzchick]

are teams going too fast at the start and loosing petrol too early so to speek?

 

[Cobblestones]

Scarponi also losing time to Cuddles.

 

[trompe le monde]

Androni Giocattoli lost time in the second half. Colnago CSF's time is still holding up as a solid third.

 

[auscyclefan94]

androni lost 1 min 5 in the last 15km as they were 2 secs up at first check.

 

[Jamsque]

That would seem to be the case, I imagine the winner is going to be the team that manages to measure its effort the best.

 

[The Sheep]

Omega Pharma better than BMC so far

 

[Cobblestones]

Raining on Garmin as well.

Sky's dry now for team sky.

 

[auscyclefan94]

Omega Pharma better than BMC so far

but can they hold it?

bye bye fischer and it could be bye bye meyer and bobridge soon for garmin.

 

[Tyke1968]

Garmin & Sky shedding more riders...

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Omega Pharma better than BMC so far

That's just hilarious

 

[Moondance]

Ouch... Lampre seems to have turned up the heat over the 2nd half. Pretty good job by them

 

[trompe le monde]

Lampre now in 2nd, 22 seconds behind Cuddles and friends.

 

[sportzchick]

6 men for sky now - payback for stage 2 perhaps

 

[Jamsque]

Cervelo 29 down on sky at the intermediate check.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Cervelo at 29 seconds, also half a minute faster than BMC
