Paris - Nice, Stage 2 Vimory -> Cérilly 200 km, Tuesday 5th March

[Maaaaaaaarten]

Boonen doing a training.

 

[Hugo Koblet]

Quickstep seem to be riding for Meersman today. The finish looked as if it might suit him pretty well.

I think they'll go for Chavanel although it's fairly optimistic. Otherwise they might as well have ridden for Boonen.

 

[Hugo Koblet]

Come on Petacchi! This is perfect for him.

 

[Pippo_San]

time for a good laugh at OGE again

 

[classicomano]

Legendary Argos

 

[Hugo Koblet]

Kittel destroys it.

 

[Afrank]

Kittel takes it.

 

[Maaaaaaaarten]

1. Kittel
2. Viviani

 

[burning]

Kittel won by a mile

 

[Der Effe]

Wtf was Renshaw doing lol

 

[Hugo Koblet]

3. Howard I think.

 

[Pippo_San]

So easy for Kittel...Viviani should just start his sprints a tad bit earlier

 

[WillemS]

Impressive uphill sprint from Kittel, he's certainly strong. I'm looking forward to the GT sprint battles.

 

[kingjr]

Like a Boss!

So Kittel wins.... He is the heaviest one, the inertia of the mass will rule

Cant wait to see him in Zoncolan

Cant wait to see him in Zoncolan

I have high hopes for him at the vuelta, angliru stage, will look up the odds to place abet

I have high hopes for him at the vuelta, angliru stage, will look up the odds to place abet

Last km of angliru should suit him

[Dazed and Confused]

so 20km of racing today. Well, we found a winner. Congrats to Kittel. Solid performance.

 

[LaFlorecita]

Ugh, Kittel

 

[Maaaaaaaarten]

What the heck is Viviani doing, his sprints are so silly. He did at least two sprints again.

Kittel came from very way too obviously, he just got to the front in a smarter way.

 

[Lexman]

last km of angliru should suit him

lol .............

Better than Renshaw doing no sprints from two stages
