What's up with Millar? He can't even best the time of Flens and Huguet on Col d'Eze...

Wait... David Millar is in this race?

 

[Yellow Knight]

Wiggins 19:12
Westra 19:14
Peraud 19:45

 

[Publicus]

Carrot at the top of the leader board! Carrot at the top of the leader board!

 

[Pentacycle]

Wait... David Millar is in this race?

He'd better retire and just take a seat at the UCI somewhere. He seems to have spent more time at meetings than on the bike. Or he's just too old. Either way, I've never liked him, so please leave.

Izagirre 20:22

Voeckler taking it easy today. I wonder when he'll be peaking this year.

New leader: Ion Izagirre, 20'22". Nice ride by the youngster.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Izagirre 20:22

still 1 minute slower than Sir Wiggo last year.

 

[Sylvester]

still 1 minute slower than Sir Wiggo last year.

The contrary would be rather surprising, isn't it

20'22" might just be enough for the top 10, I guess.

 

[jaylew]

Nairo on the road

 

[Orbit501]

Quintana doesn't look much up for this.

 

[Cyivel]

Scarponi takes the lead by 3 seconds

 

[jaylew]

Scarponi 20:19

 

[The Sheep]

Quintana fastest at intermediate

 

[Orbit501]

Quintana fastest at intermediate

Ssshhhh, my plan is working

He really doesn't look up for this.

 

[Kwibus]

Don't want to spoil the party, but Porte will win the TT as well.

 

[Cyivel]

19'43 for Nairo

 

[infeXio]

Quintana 35 secs faster than Scarponi

 

[jaylew]

Nairo 19:43!

 

[The Blues]

Horrible ride from Nicolas Roche.

Okay by Klöden, but not near good enough to really challenge.

 

[Ferminal]

****** Spilak 2" inside Quintana @ INT.

 

[infeXio]

Porte to burn them all by 20 secs at the intermediate

 

[jaylew]

Good time by Ulissi at intermediate

and 20:16 at finish for 2nd
