Great race this....

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Great race this....

Just loving Xat Scaroni

 

[Netserk]

If Scaroni stays on the wheel, he should have the strength to make a strong attack on Mele.

 

[Samamba]

Scaroni is so damn impressive this year. Sure he was a good rider last year, but what a big step forward. I'm starting to wonder if he's gonna fade soon.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Wtf is this Astana team, come on Vino get 27 year old Scaroni off the Hirschi UCI points schedule and have him practicing his TT for Giro GC, they aren't dropping this guy on climbs in a month of Sundays.

 

[Samamba]

Astana will jump over UNO X and Arkea today. At this point they will be in the top 18 after half a season already.

 

[Salvarani]

Let's be honest Christian scaroni is the best cyclist in the world

The Fausto effect for Astana! His arrival done wonders for them.

next year, this year the only goal is UCI points

 

[Netserk]

This is not how you ride for points, Christian.

 

[pastronef]

I'm happy to see Storer there. would be nice if he had another Hirschi moment like at the Vuelta a few years ago

 

[Tim Cahill]

People not far behind, wonder if Scaroni will just ride now for the points

 

[SafeBet]

Powless is back to being Powerless. I don't know what happened to him but he's looking very ordinary lately.

He's doing fine considering he's up against the best rider in the world and a former GT podiumer.

 

[Samamba]

This is not how you ride for points, Christian.

Why not? He can beat those 2 in the sprint. En Bettiol gets 4th then. That's 300 points, insane again.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

to hell with the points Scaroni, go for the win. 100%

 

[Netserk]

Very nice, Grande Scaroni!!!

 

[pastronef]

Scaroni and Ayuso giving Chicken-Alberto vibes

 

[Monsi]

Banger race.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Scaroni and Ayuso sprinting up climbs like Contador and Rasmussen

 

[Monsi]

Imagine Powless still goes on to win

 

[Samamba]

Scaroni can just keep standing on the peddles.

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Great race this....

Should be a fantastic finish!

Barely 2km to go

 

[Netserk]

Now it's tactically simpler. No pulls before the sprint, Scaroni!

I think you're overrating his sprint a bit

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Powless getting ready to launch?

 

[Samamba]

I think you're overrating his sprint a bit

Well Ayuso definitely does not seem sure at all. Scaroni has a sprint. I'm not sure if he's faster than Ayuso, but it's definitely possible.
