Re:

A random Poels has appeared, this is beyond ridiculous

I know, it's nuts. :lol:

 

[bajbar]

This is beyond ridiculous... Poels just casualy appears. And straight to the front...

Lol! True :arrow:

 

[Escarabajo]

4 Skys out of 9 riders!!

 

[Pantani Attacks]

Someone get Poels his Coca Cola can

 

[ontheroad]

Did Poels cycle out of a ditch?

 

[OmieeZF]

They were slowing down. Last 9km is the worst btw so the game is still on.

I know. Sky are soooo mean.... :lol:

Nice riding by Poels, stayed within 15s when it all kicked off and got back on when Bernal hit the front and dropped the pace.

 

[woodburn]

Peleton pace has seriously slowed.

 

[yetiyeti]

It's just not going to change without Dumoulin or Roglic or SK attacking. They don't have to chase anyone else at this point.

 

[Tigerion]

Did Pellizotti get back on with Poels or was he just caught and tagged on the end as passed?

 

[markene2]

I am glad that Rogla tried, but unfortunatly no match for the train

Re:

He was brought back by Dumoulin.

 

[Scarponi]

Brah on his best day Poels is the best climber in the world. The amount of times its come down to froome and Poels as last two men. He has saved froome at least 10 times over the years

Some loser will start riding soon to protect their GC from Quintana / Martin.

 

[LPP68!]

Dutch TV mentions that Sagan is not looking good. Still riding, but shaking his head.

 

[Oliwright]

It's hard for Froome to attack Thomas when others don't...

 

[skippo12]

Kangert has his random outstanding climbing performance today. Once or twice every GT he can climb with the best.

 

[Highlander]

Hopefully Kwiatkowski comes back next so the 5 Sky riders can ride across the finish line clasping arms and over 3 minutes ahead of the nearest challenger.

 

[spalco]

It most certainly wasn't.

This team is insane and has all parts covered, especially the mountains.

And yet it's not clear whether Sky actually has the strongest rider in the race.

 

[Hugo Koblet]

Come on Froome!

 

[Finn84]

If someone else than Sky is working:
"Why do the teams just burn off their own riders?"

If someone from Sky is working:
"Why do they let Sky to do all the work?"

 

[ontheroad]

Roglic riding some race also.
