Ponferrada 2014 World Championships, Sep. 21st-28th

[Dekker_Tifosi]

BMC vs Omega vs Sky

 

[VanBsr]

With a better start Trek would have been on the podium at the end

 

[Sasquatch]

Massive failure from OGE

Didn't they like prepare for this months in advance?

 

[Cance > TheRest]

BMC is destroying this. 1.11 in front of Trek at 2nd time check, I assume.
Also faster than OPQS at first check by ½ sec

 

[cineteq]

Orica is not looking good, BMC might take this home

Sky and OPQS, the only ones who could challenge

Edit: Sky now with 4 riders

 

[burning]

Sky is already down to 4

 

[Hugo Koblet]

Did it just say BMC ahead of OPQS by 46 seconds at 25 km?

 

[Cance > TheRest]

SKY down to four riders with quite half an hour to go... hmm..

 

[roundabout]

BMC roughly same pace as Tinkoff and Movistar between splits 1 and 2 so not quite amazing

 

[Cance > TheRest]

Did it just say BMC ahead of OPQS by 46 seconds at 25 km?

.46 seconds

 

[Akuryo]

Did it just say BMC ahead of OPQS by 46 seconds at 25 km?

No, it was .46, so half a second.

 

[Netserk]

Between BMC, OP-QS and Orica.

 

[Roude Leiw]

Belkin without Boom >> was he benched due to transfer to Astana?

 

[Hugo Koblet]

Alright, makes a lot more sense then

 

[Beacon Hill]

Sky look done. Doubt they can make much of an impression on BMC with only 4 left this far out.

 

[Netserk]

Doubt Sky can keep this furious pace.

 

[BigMac]

Maarten Tjallingii vegetarian. My new favourite rider.

 

[BigMac]

Doubt Sky can keep this furious pace.

Especially because they're only 4 now.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Tom Dumoulin says the final part is crucial. He said Giant went a bit too fast in the first part and he had to take it easier on the climb because otherwise they would be blown apart.

He said you can gain a lot of time in the last part like Trek did

 

[Bumeington]

Doubt Sky can keep this furious pace.

Not furious enough for Bradley!

 

[roundabout]

orica have recovered somewhat

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Orica at 10 seconds, they are not out of this

 

[Cance > TheRest]

Martin's white helmet annoys me. BMC 1.01 faster than Trek

 

[Moose McKnuckles]

Cancellara examines BMC's time with a "WTF" look.

 

[BigMac]

Rohan Dennis was crucial. Well done BMC.

By the way, who's the lady (cyclist I assume) doing the commentary alongside Ligget? I'm really liking her.
