Quintero is concious, moves legs and arms, and spoke with is directeur sportif

That's good to hear. I was, and still am a bit, seriously worried.

That is great news. The initial photos looked bad.

 

[ChrisE]

How many TdFs did Cipo finish...oh wait he was on the beach by the second week!

Touche. I can't touch that.

 

[Caruut]

Who are BMC driving for? Gilbert, GVA?

 

[SoNiK4]

Glad to hear Quintero isn't as bad as he looked at first, hope he recovers well.

 

[meat puppet]

a real relief if quintero is indeed okay. got a very nasty initial feeling about this with the space blanket and, i believe, EKG machine visible...

also not a fan of showing the pictures. at all.

 

[El Pistolero]

Now that I know Quintero is fine, I can make some Cav jokes.

What a World Champion we got this year

 

[pastronef]

Cavendish rejoins the main peloton

edit. that's not the main peloton, sorry

 

[Frosty]

55 seconds to first chase group. 1.22 to the second. Bearing in mind how the peloton is one long line that must mean the front of the second group is only 10-15seconds behind the back of the first chase group. Can see the riders making their way back through the cars.

 

[Hawkwood]

Touche. I can't touch that.

Cipo was the man though, still remember his four Tour stage victories in a row, the Saeco train was awesome.

 

[virandociclista]

sky working so hard just to cav be dropped in the poggio?

 

[Fidolix]

Matti Brechel ftw

Well if they get back up then EBH will have more people there to help him.

 

[jens_attacks]

sky giving everything for their captain very nice

gilbert is in good form it seems

 

[Unkown]

Its funny seeing 4 guys on Sky going crazy to get Cav back to the Peleton just so he can get blown away on the Poggio, wonder who BMC is working for.

 

[meat puppet]

Matti Brechel ftw

would be awesome

I'm just not a fan of cavendish, and I can't stand the trains when nobody sticks their nose in the wind until 100m to go. Not impressed, and not the type of racing I enjoy or respect. Regardless, I thought Cipo was a much better rider than cavendish.

 

[Frosty]

Yeah, they have four guys other than Cav in that chase group.

 

[El Pistolero]

Who are BMC driving for? Gilbert, GVA?

Gilbert is in super shape. I already saw it at Le Manie.

 

[goggalor]

Go BMC!!!!

 

[pastronef]

Quintero suffered a concussion and now he is at the hospital for controls. (Dr. Tredici reports)

 

[ChrisE]

Gilbert is in super shape. I already saw it at Le Manie.

Why do you say that? He has done nothing this year. Or, do you mean position?

 

[burning]

Cav is back to peloton with drafting cars included too

 

[Unkown]

The peleton should make a b-line for the nearest hill just so they can drop Cav again

 

[Moose McKnuckles]

Cavendish almost back to the peloton. Wow.
