Stage 16: Ponte Di Legno-Val Martello/Martelltal (139 km)

[infeXio]

Was that Majka on Rogers' wheel?

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Now Pozzovivo has 2 helpers there

 

[wirral]

Hesjedal yo-yoing off the back of the other 2. Rolland making it look ridiculously easy. (for now)

Poor Cadel looks like he's spending as much energy throwing his bike from side to side as he is pedaling forward.

 

[Pricey_sky]

Looks like it's breaking apart in the MR group,

Yes 10characters

I doubt that they will be able to hang on for long

Evans is struggling big time at the moment

 

[SafeBet]

Why didn't those Ag2r stop before to help Pozzovivo???

 

[Walkman]

Yes, what happened? I missed it all and just tuned in.

Communications. There were talks about a neutralized descend but nothing was confirmed and that may be the reason that Quintana got 2 minutes on the downhill.

I mean, Rolland getting 2 min on Evans on a difficult downhill? Seems weird.

he always looks like that on a climb

he does look like he's about to be dropped though

 

[therhodeo]

Yep he always looks awful.

 

[Eshnar]

Who's in the MR group? What's the gap now?

 

[Butterhead]

Yes 10characters

No it wasn´t it was Pozzo, majka is in trouble.

 

[GuyIncognito]

Urán doing a Robert Millar: refuses to do any chasing himself, but complaining at others to chase

This isn't PCM.
Descents aren't just comprised of everyone riding moto gp 100% down every descent.

99% of descents are ridden carefully.

Rolland was trying. Evans was not. Pretty understandable considering Rolland is one of the most attacking riders in the world, 5 minutes down on gt, and Evans is one of the least, in 2nd place.

 

[trevim]

What a fighting spirit from Hesjay. Not a fan but he's deserving all the seconds he's taking back

 

[Cance > TheRest]

Who's in the MR group? What's the gap now?

1.40. Uran+Evans+Majka+Aru are all there

He´s cooked, just stupid nobody takes a swing at him, but do his job for him instead.

 

[Eshnar]

1.40. Uran+Evans+Majka+Aru are all there

thank you

 

[mastermind]

just joining in, someone a quick update about what happened?

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Mr. Bronchitis looks good

 

[l.Harm]

Evans is cracking?? Rivals should profit.

 

[hfer07]

Nairito doing a massive pull- hope he allows those two to set the pace too ...

Neutralization drama. Gaps.

LOLPRANK Giro shenanigans

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

just joining in, someone a quick update about what happened?

quintana attacked in the descend with rolland and hesjedal and 1 helper (and rolland had 1 helper)
They had 2 minutes on the group uran, at one point it was 1'35. But now it's growing to 2 minutes again on the climb
