Feeds seem to be all over the shop, Gazetta appear to be truly live.

Gazetta feed is about .1k behind
Eurosport feeds are 3k behind
Sporza feeds are about .2k behind

Rabobank are going to be a long way behind for freire.

 

[roundabout]

I'd like to see the big chasing group actually ride for once and not wait for the stragglers

Gazetta stream has a latency with respect to the Rai3 broadcast TV of about 1sec - amazing for a live stream!

 

[auscyclefan94]

Looks like rain towards the finish.

Leyotard have requested the race be neutralized

Wonder what will happen at de Ronde this year?

Freire still behind, despite hanging onto the teamcar.

Looks like Hushovd is in a 3rd group, just about to catch up to the second group that has some HTC riders + Visconti in it.

 

[Jamsque]

Surprisingly big move has gone away over the Manie, but the peloton is re-grouping behind.

Five hours in the saddle already!

Cav is comfortable near the front of the peloton.

Closing the gap? Or do you think Gazetta will stay away?

whats really impressive is when the gazetta stream is AHEAD of the Eurosport HD stream. Eurosport HD seems to have about a 2 second lag.

everythingontv eurosport stream has just refreshed to about 1 seconds behind live.

RAI is saying Freire crashed?? My Italian isn't great but I know the word 'caduta'.. haven't seen it but surprised there wouldn't be a shot of it. Looks like he's having all sorts of problems getting rolling again, and only one teammate there to help him...

Wow... Never before has the pre-Cipressa part of MSR been this interesting.

Not for long!

Go ABC (anyone but cavendish)!

Just saw a replay - Freire did crash.

 

[Waterloo Sunrise]

Looks to be mostly all back together now, barring Freire.


Very nervy early on this year.

 

[eljimberino]

Eurosport pulling back now, Kelly on the front. Caught up during the ads.

 

[beer_thirty]

ahh, there it is. RAI just showed a shot of Oscar sliding out in a switchback corner. not a bad crash but certainly will take something out of him for the finale it would seem.

 

[Wergeland]

Group Hushovd 2,12 behind.

 

[sublimit]

Ignatiev has to keep working, despite getting caught after being away for over 220K!

 

[auscyclefan94]

Wyss and Schar on the front for BMC!

 

[beer_thirty]

Agreed! A lot more in flux this year; could be the most interesting MSR finale in years!

Who's in the second peloton? Freire, Cav, Hushovd & Goss?

 

[Parrulo]

i will watch this in italian. tbh i should have been doing it before. i understand what they say and the eurosport guys are just dull. almost looks like they are commentating snooker and have to whisper and talk without any kind of emotion for 90% of the time.

 

[Moondance]

So, any sprinters spotted in the Katusha/BMC led group? Besides Pozzato.

Think they are all in the main group now.
