Sundby's making some inroads into the lead and catching the Russians and Italians though - can't drop Tobi Angerer yet though.

Sundby showing some life for norway. About time

 

[Bavarianrider]

25,93kmh average for the classic stages if my calculations are okay.

That's really craz. Tough courses, extremly warm temperatures. One would excpect a slow race yet it's super fast.

 

[jens_attacks]

We got a race. go norway-russia!

 

[jens_attacks]

Uff sundby got tired

 

[Libertine Seguros]

Lehtonen is dying on his skis out there.

 

[maltiv]

Really weird, like 95% of all relays the last couple of years it's been a close race with lots of teams in contention, mostly resulting in a bunch sprint.

Now it's just carnage.

sundby spent too much catching lego and he is now dying 1000 deaths, still a doggedly fight, martin.

My god legkov is sprinting like wow

 

[maltiv]

Putin will be happy about Legkov's performance I guess.

 

[jens_attacks]

Putin makes russia ride even faster. chapeau sundby!

vyleg is skiing for 2nd, me thinks...i do not see him chasing hard.

northug lost another few secs to hellner after 3.3.km

 

[meat puppet]

My god legkov is sprinting like wow

olsson 21min, legkov some 30sec faster. so 29kmh+ for legkov.

Russia to come in 4th

 

[Libertine Seguros]

Vylegzhanin is fading... and not well either. Who would have thought Perrillat-Boiteaux and David Hofer would be his undoing?

 

[kingjr]

Would be hilarious if Northug could catch Vylegzhanin.

Vylegzhanin is fading... and not well either.

it could be tactical, i don't know, hoping the french to weaken from chasing to take advantage of him in a sprint...only 3 km to go

 

[jens_attacks]

Vyleg started too hard. difiicult to podium only if the french help him

 

[Bavarianrider]

I feel sorry for the 3rd finish guy

 

[kingjr]

OK, pretty much everyone except Hellner pretty much looks dead on their feet now.

 

[jens_attacks]

Fantastic brutal race

it could be tactical, i don't know, hoping the french to weaken from chasing to take advantage of him in a sprint...only 3 km to go

and of course, i was right again
