Post Danmark Rundt (2.HC) August 4 - August 8

[Domulec]

Looks like the peloton has split, Tinkoff drilling it at the front. Don't see Boom around.

Okay, who are the MORONS who determined that this course was suitable for a Professional bike race?!?
First they let some of the guys from the break ride off of the course, which should be IMPOSSIBLE! (what are cops and marshalls for??)
Then the road is littered with curbs, small boulevards and trees, like a series of chicanes!! And all this with Tinkoff going full gas with a large peloton riding down on this poor excuse for a course.
The race organizers should all be fired!!

 

[Cance > TheRest]

Two biggest favourites on Kiddesvej out of contention. meh

 

[Kazistuta]

Yellow jersey was visible in the third group, but still minor gaps.

 

[Domulec]

Boom is back in the first peloton now.

Breschel is the biggest favorite, though. And Boasson Hagen is still there.

I disagree.

I'd say Nordhaug was just as big a favorite as Breschel, but it doesn't matter now

 

[Billie]

lol Terpstra has the same ugly face like his brother but completely different build

Boom dropped..?

 

[Cance > TheRest]

Boom dropped?

 

[TMP402]

I'd say Swift has a chance today - is he in the peloton?

 

[DBotero]

So Sky lost Nordhaug is Peters out too?

 

[Domulec]

Boom dropped it seems. Gonna lose his jersey for sure then. Maybe if he keeps the loss limited he still has a chance in the ITT. Disastrous day for Astana.

 

[Hugo Koblet]

Boom is back again.

You're entitled to. Breschel has won 3 times on Kiddesvej, Fuglsang 2 and Nordhaug 1. I stand by my statement

Breschel I don't disagree about. A favourite for sure, although not the biggest. But EBH is too heavy for Kiddesvej, I think.

Re:

Sky has 4 guys:Swift,Henao,Knees and Siutsou.

 

[Domulec]

Sky and Tinkoff have the numbers, someone of those teams should win this. Smart attack now, let's see who will chase. Astana don't have the numbers anymore, that's for sure.

Nordhaug has a 100% win rate on Kiddesvej though. Breschel only has a 37,5% win rate

Thanks!

 

[Hugo Koblet]

Well, now Sky doesn't have Siutsou anymore.

 

[TMP402]

Well Sitsov attacked and has now crashed.

 

[Cance > TheRest]

Siutsou down, as they hit a cobbled section. Terrible crash

 

[DBotero]

Horrible crash Siutsou
