A very hard stage, many riders really suffers from the weather. In the same time, the breakaway has more than 7' of adv.

Lots of riders suffering apparently! Nairo Quintana had to go to the doctor's car, got some medication

This day use to be difficult, usually for the wind and crashs... this year as well for the hot weather.

 

[DJ Sprtsch]

Did he say 10'40 advantage?

Excellent. Gaimon FTW, also GC.

 

[Christian]

Cavendish in the very back of the peloton apparently... might explain why the gap is so large

 

[DJ Sprtsch]

[Arredondo]

Marc de Maar FTW!

 

[Jelantik]

[Christian]

I follow on twitter with #Tourdesanluis but no idea if information is accurate/up to date

 

[DJ Sprtsch]

My Spanish is a bit rusty...what is it with Purito?
Could be that he was just having a snack or whatever, but the guy sounded, if at all possible, just a bit more exited than usual.

 

[MagnusMagnussen]

Petacchi abandons... 🙁

...stomach problems.

and fever.

 

[Arredondo]

JRod had problems with his bike, but is back in the peloton.

PURITO RODRIGUEZ Problemas en la rueda Trasera #tourdesanluis .... Ya se metió nuevamente en el pelotón

 

[DJ Sprtsch]

I'm not sure those differences are reliable - 11.32 now.

 

[Arredondo]

Apparently, Purito almost hit a police motor, but he's fine and back.

Well, imagine if your season would already be over in Argentina.

#TourdeSanLuis @PuritoRodriguez almost hit a police motor bike trying to connect with main group. he is back on.

Big crash now, involving more than 30 cyclist!

Hopefully no serious injuries.
