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

F*cking parasite, Rolland.

Lol! Bull****. Rolland took the lead twice and Quintana thanked him both time with attacking... So Quinti caused this with his stupid riding.

 

[Pricey_sky]

Rolland wants the stage win, he isn't going to win GC and this stage is a great one to win, plus Quintana cannot moan after his 'effort' with Pozzo last week.

 

[wirral]

Bottles allowed in the last 20km, apparently.

 

[Moose McKnuckles]

Rolland is doing exactly what he should be doing.

Why would he help Quintana now? Stay on Quintana as long as possible, then if you see him start to show weakness, attack.

Rolland has to put time into Quintana as well.

Agree, if Quintana wants to act the big man then he can do all the work!

 

[SafeBet]

Me thinks the Angel needs to fly soon, if he want to win this giro..

Question now is if he wants to win it or just podium.

 

[Aristarchus]

Ryder about to crack?

Ryder's been ready to crack for a while, but somehow keeps hanging on. I strong attack from Rolland or Quintana should finish him off, though.

a fine of 200 Frank?

 

[GuyIncognito]

Hats off to Ryder though. What is dead may never die.

Pretty sure he's not an elder god

 

[whittashau]

Quintana has no chance.

 

[Bumbibjörnen]

Uran needs to do something soon or he will lose this giro, but maybe he doesnt have the legs.

 

[woodburn]

Giro time gaps are comical and apparently bi-polar.

And they're real real sticky...

 

[Ferminal]

Mick closing it down

 

[Lupi33]

disappointing we havent had any Nibali-style descenders stages so far in this Giro

today doesnt count because of the confusion

Absolutely!

Well, if there's one thing Ryder is, it's determined. He won't give up without a fight.

 

[Arnout]

Gap immediately coming down again once AG2R helpers were gone.

 

[Pricey_sky]

2mins 30 gap now if time gap can be trusted!

 

[The Hitch]

Quintana gaining time alone. Ridiculous.

with all the talk about cold people totally forgot about the altitude.

No one had it easier on Stelvio and especially Gavia when they were racing hard, than Nairo.

He's a lot more fresh now.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

2'28!!! Quintana is going to destroy

 

[GuyIncognito]

If the GPS is right for once, Urán is so done

 

[whittashau]

time gap went up 30 seconds in about 5 seconds?

 

[Samson777]

Question now is if he wants to win it or just podium.

Yes, of course the thing about betting everything, is that you risk loosing everything. Will be interesting.

 

[senatorrick]

Rollandto attack with 6 km left ride away for the win you heard it here first!
