oh Thought he meant breakaway on the final climb because there were a few big names. anyway GVA has a chance if he has form.

Don't think they're even on the first big climb yet

 

[dlwssonic]

Or any other random BMC rider of course.

Duh! Best team in the world!!!
Haha just kidding. But is TJVG racing today, he can win too but I will go for GVA.

Don't think they're even on the first big climb yet

Haha Im not following the feeds or stream.

Yes they are, on the Puig Major. Advantage is only 50 secs.

 

[FF'Wilco]

My bet is that its going to be between Valverde, Machado, Henao & Dani Moreno.

 

[theyoungest]

Purito dropped. And Frank as well.

 

[element]

Would like to see Henao put in a big show.

 

[Duartista]

Purito and Frank back at the front now. Seems like they lost contact on the descent and came back on the lower slopes of Soller.

Scratch that: they're only now on Soller. Poor maths on my part.

 

[Maaaaaaaarten]

Still two climbs to go; soller and valdemossa

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Brian Bulgac is doing spectacularly well

 

[jens_attacks]

i said it first that nordhaug will be this year's froome.henao will be just pure spectacular,he will crush big guns in giro.

A 27 kms de meta. Coronado Sóller, se juntan los siete en cabeza:

José Herrada (Movistar) y Bulgac (Lotto-Belisol) + Fulsang (RadioShack), Nordhaug, Henao (Sky), Rui Costa (Movistar), Peter Velits (Omega Pharma-Quick Step)


today probably omega will win again ))))
vamos sergio!

Or Radioshack. Rui Costa can also win here.

 

[FF'Wilco]

Machado is also in front group, 13 riders 23" behind, peleton 38"

Now eight leaders are 52" ahead of peleton

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Tiago Machado wasting his energy early again probably.

 

[FF'Wilco]

15km/50secs. Might be decisive move. Bulgac and Herrada might be dropped on the last climb.

 

[maltiv]

Wouldn't surprise me if Nordhaug gets it, he's in absolutely incredible shape at the moment. If it comes to a sprint though he'll probably help Henao who's much faster.

 

[jens_attacks]

José Herrada y Rui Costa (Movistar), Bulgac (Lotto-Belisol), Fulsang y Machado (RadioShack), Nordhaug y Henao (Sky) y Peter Velits (Omega Pharma-Quick Step)

some 10 km to go,the winner will come from here i think.
seems like a great stage

 

[Fetisoff]

Is there another climb near the finish?

 

[Froome19]

Tiago Machado wasting his energy early again probably.

Their definitely going to get away the gap has now grown to 1:10
Only spoiler for these 8 would be if visconti catches up...
he's @ 47 sec with ten dam and marino

 

[FF'Wilco]

Is there another climb near the finish?

Yea, the hardest. If it comes to a sprint i say Costa vs Henao vs Velits

EDIT
Wrong already seems Velits gets dropped

 

[dlwssonic]

darn frank cant descent at all.

 

[Fetisoff]

Well, then, depending on how big the "peloton" is and who is still in it, they could still bring back this break, even though it's a very dangerous one. I guess Visconti doesn't think he'd be able to climb with some of the people in the peloton, so he had to attack before the climb

 

[Duartista]

This is the last climb, Valldemossa. 11 km to go, Velits, Herrada and Bulgac dropped.

 

[theyoungest]

Only Rui Costa (Movistar), Fulsang, Machado (RadioShack), Nordhaug, Henao (Sky) left.

darn frank cant descent at all.

Frank was dropped like an hour ago?

 

[jens_attacks]

Rui Costa (Movistar), Fulsang y Machado (RadioShack), Nordhaug y Henao (Sky)

it's between these,sky androids bringing the pain again!!!
henao ftw!!!

Im pretty sure there is no peleton behind, just a group of 30 or so riders. And the top teams have their man in front and its mostly a descent now so i say they wont be cought.
