I believe roundabout said that there will be no Live coverage this year.

Sad times for Jens Attack as there will be no danilo this year.

Yeah, horrible. Tax payer funded ORF can pay who knows how many millions for F1 and ****ty American sitcoms, but not this, putting the whole event on the verge of cancellation (and really, what's the point if it's not on tv?).

[notrolfsorensen]

Great two first stages.... Kiserlovski, Henao and Majka favourites.

 

[Ruudz0r]

I really like the route such a shame there isnt live coverage . Lets see if young Aru and Dombrowski can show something.

 

[roundabout]

Stage 4 is 146km.

 

[all_in]

Henao,Basso,Aru,Dombro,Kiserlovski,Frank,Spilak,Brambilla.A lot of good climbers this year.Henao is the biggest favourite imo but Frank is in astonishing form and could beat him in ITT.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Potential fastmen:

Haller
Boonen
Meersman
Hushovd
Guardini
Cantwell
Ciolek
Petit

Probably missed many, sorry.

What can Zoidl do against the field?

 

[jens_attacks]

not even live for kitzbuheler horn....terrible. i don't think i will follow this race at all

 

[roundabout]

Henao isn't starting it seems.

[Zam_Olyas]

This is a legit race and it's on the 2nd page.

 

[Libertine Seguros]

Interesting to see how Zoidl goes, however most of his top results have been in hillier and intermediate stages; Sonntagberg ought to be much more his kind of thing than Kühtaisattel or Kitzbüheler Horn. Apart from the 4th on Monte Mataiur in the Giro della Regione Friuli-Venezia-Giulia I can't really see anything high-mountain-wise in his palmarès.

 

[plooton]

Very promising profile, but unluckily, NetApp missing this year. Will Basso show a bit of his shining past?

 

[Christian]

Stefan Denifl has been racing well all season and getting good results, I hope he can finally get a win here! Also odd that Rohregger is not on the start list (at least the one on CN, haven't checked any others)

 

[Bavarianrider]

Kitzbühler Horn, what a suprise

 

[Taxus4a]

Thanks Zam_Olyas

I was surprised when I saw Henao in the start list, it made not big sense. Anyway the start list is good, and the route is hard and complete.

I hope to see Verona in the top ten.

I hope one stage for Ciolek as well.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Kitzbühler Horn, what a suprise

Austria's Alpe. Brutal climb:

Going with Dombrowski FTW here.

 

[manafana]

worry for this race next year, nice race to have during tour i thought, pity no local riders who are pushing for bigger honours right now. Will Eisel ride?

I'm going to cheer for Zoidl.

 

[SetonHallPirate]

The only issue with Kitzbuhler Horn is that it has to be earlier in the week, because they host a World Cup Triathlon in the second weekend.

That being said, is this really the best parcours they could come up with? I mean, the Tour of Austria race director is making Christian Prudhomme look like Angelo Zomegnan with this race route!
