I don't always ride up mountains, but when I do, I sprint for 3km in the big ring.
when on a 3% climb, that is definitely possible even for a normal cyclist

Oh this part is only 3%? Nevermind... that's just a false flat.

Landa was about 1 minute ahead. He gains about 45 seconds even now!? With over 2 minutes behind him, Contador would've been forced to dig into the red and it's very likely that he would've cracked being isolated!

the winner is AC. Landa won the stage. Great ride by AC to catch them in mortirolo!!

The winners are Landa and Contador.

Landa got his 2nd stage win and the Astana leadership (not to mention a 2nd place in Milan)

Contador got some time on Aru, but got Landa who's 10x more dangerous behind him. Still overall he came out ahead, more due to Aru's weakness than anything though.

The loser is Aru, but that's hardly surprising, many have been calling for what happened today for a number of days now.
