Your Stream must have been worse than mine - Cav was on the front pretty early, then my stream froze and Cav was chilling rolling backwards.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Nice bunch sprint. Congrats Nizzolo.

 

[Lexman]

Wasn't he leading Boonen out?

yes he was, Boonen was led out, went on but was passed by Nizzolo and then stopped sprinting

Farrar 3rd it seems, Boonen 4th

Looks like Boonen was third and I probably made up a lot of stuff during sprint

 

[Waterloo Sunrise]

Nice of Cav to let one of the lesser riders on the team have a go - he didn't manage to win, but at least the young lad tried - not all riders are made out to be winners.

 

[The Blues]

Great race for Trek FR so far. 2 stage wins and Haimar + Arredondo in a good GC-position.

 

[BigMac]

Boonen 3rd according to PCS.

What a complete fail train from Lampre, Modolo simply disappeared, lol. Outside of top10.

I heard that Lampre was leading the peloton for a while, looks like they botched the timing big time

Trek owning this race. Just goes to show, it pays to invest in young talent. Happy to see them finally finding their bearings as a team and getting results so early.

Very nice win for Nizzolo.

Reminder of stage 4 details:

Climb:

Somebody needs to take a minute or more on Gaimon here.

they need a lot more than 1 minute

 

[Afrank]

Quintana for the win on that one. Go begin your streak of domination and get me some CQ points Nairito.

 

[SKSemtex]

Caruso new sprinter for Cannondale ?

No news of Sagan?

 

[Waterloo Sunrise]

Obvious Yates win is obvious.

he dropped in the wind

Next stage

Don't knock OPQS or Lampre too much. Hard to manage a race with only 6 riders. While I'm a new fan of Gaimon and want "clean" to win, I also know it will be a lot harder tomorrow. The other guys will try really hard tomorrow to isolate Gaimon. With Acevedo out, Garmin has 4 guys to help and a key person for the climbs. Gaimon will make up some time on the TT, so to have a chance, they MUST make up at least 2 minutes tomorrow. Only way to do that is to make the race really hard. With the temperature reaching 105 Farenheit/40 celcius tomorrow AND lots of wind, lots and lots of team support needed. BMC and Movistar will tag team Garmin, so watch Winner Anacona from Lampre or, dare I say it, Duarte.
