STAGE15: Cesana Torinese - Col Du Galibier (Valloire) 149 kms

[Hugo Koblet]

Congratulations Visconti! What a ride today!

 

[all_in]

Everyone has 3 teammates left.

Yeah,but the climb is to regular.On climbs like Zoncolan teammates doesn't help,but on climbs like Galibier teammates play a big role.

Duarte attack!

Looks to me like Nibbs is going to take it easy today...

Gio's a better climber than a lot of people give him credit for. I certainly wouldn't put my money on him, but if the bunch keep riding as they are I wouldn't be TOO surprised if he hangs on... just. This is, imo, too big a climb for him though, most of his best climbing results have been something maxing out on this size of climb - and that's this climb from Valloire, not including the Télégraphe.

I'm pretty sure that no one thought about Visconti 3 hours ago

 

[Red Rick]

They should add the last 4km of the galibier, just to induce some GC action

 

[Ferminal]

Bunch are going to freeze if they don't lift their heart rate.

 

[vcampbell]

Can't wait to download this stage and watch again like 1000 times.

They can add 40km of Galibier and still nothing will happen.

Sporza commentator lol

 

[burning]

Cadel has a teammate 3km to go

 

[goggalor]

I really don't get why they bothered coming to France to climb this miserable mountain.

 

[Red Rick]

Might be that there are some bonifications left for the peleton

 

[SKSemtex]

At least we know that SKYborgs are humans afterall. Skytrain is the history. (till Tour at least )

 

[whittashau]

agnoli finally done

 

[Bala Verde]

total turd of a stage.

 

[gjb483]

riders obviously looking forward to a rest day.

 

[wwabbit]

Beginning to miss the Sky train... which would never have allowed the peloton to remain so big...

 

[Waterloo Sunrise]

At least we know that SKYborgs are humans afterall. Skytrain is the history. (till Tour at least )

They're all just sitting there, not riding, because there is no reason to given Uran's style.

 

[burning]

Fans have much bigger balls than the peloton

WHat? barring a total bonk Visconti should win this stage easy.

 

[Tom T.]

I guess riders 2 thru 8 are just happy to fight for the podium and leave the top step to Nibali. What a bunch of gutless riders.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Scarponi attacks on a huge gear

 

[classicomano]

Scarponi just trying to stay warm.

 

[Zam_Olyas]

This is terrible, i was hoping for the best.

 

[Red Rick]

Scarponi, that's even less explosive than Gesink
