Thomas looked up at the finish thinking

Hey Froomie what are you doing here?
Why are you wearing a red jersey?
Why do you suddenly have hair?

They do have a similar build and praying mantis style on the bike.

But Zaka is way more likeable.
Grande Zaka! Great win today :)

He just comes across as a genuinely humble and kind-hearted person, of course you can never be sure unless you know them personally :)

No matter who is more likable I just can't root for someone who rides like this:

Ouch, that just looks unhealthy :D

Joking aside, I hope he will serve us with a lot of action in future races, then I'm okay with whichever insect he tries to imitate. ;)

Zakarin is supposed to ride Il Giro together with Taaramae.J.Rod goes for TDF.

Grande Ilnur lost his podium to Porte but 4th place is no so bad.

His performance all around was still superb. I fear he'll be nuclear from Romandie to Suisse.

5th in LBL today.Great result considering he's riding it for the first time.
Let's see what he can do in Romandie.Maybe Spilak won't be the only leader there.

Only rider that had more than one try today. Deserved top 5 place
Betancur?
Anyway Zaka is ready. First he'll fight in Romandie for the win and then I'm sure he'll be up there in the Giro, too.
