Tirreno - Adriatico Stage 5, Ortona -> Chieti, 230 kms (10/03/2013)

[burning]

Contador also took an intermediate sprint at 5km. Froome was 3th there

Do you get boni sec for it?

Yeah, 3,2,1 for first three guys

 

[cineteq]

Rodriguez is just as ridiculous as Sky by the way.

How so? Bravo Purito from way behind, and no 'wheelsucking' take that buddy!!!!!!

 

[MatParker117]

Confirmed Froome takes the Magglia Azzuria, between him and Contador in the final TT I think.

 

[Afrank]

Froome is such a POS! Seriously hope the others block him sometime

Seriously, that was a real jerk move he made.

I would have had words with him after this race. That was a total d**chebag move.

 

[Parrot23]

He was obviously thinking more about the leader's jersey than bonus seconds, so he burnt himself pulling the group on to put more time into Kwaitkowski. Pretty smart I think.

Where did Kwaitkowski finish?

Meanwhile, Horner reaches for some Geritol. No bad for a senior citizen beating all the Sky guys. The best rider at Leopard, other than Cance., comes to the fore finally. Give the guy a chance, Leopard!

Katusha, LOL. What can one say!

 

[LaFlorecita]

Froome is such a POS! Seriously hope the others block him sometime

Yea that was a **** move Blocking Roman and Berto like that

 

[Cyivel]

Froome
Nibali '20
Alberto'20

 

[airstream]

Nobody. He's got this one in the bag.

AC just didn't have the legs to go with Purito.

 

[Eshnar]

All these guys speak Italian?

Half the peloton worked in italy sooner or later, so pretty much everyone speaks Italian.

 

[SafeBet]

All these guys speak Italian?

most riders can at least understand and reply to simple questions.

 

[roosters76]

Purito is the best of the world at steep climbs

Congrats to Purito, a book perfect finish!

 

[Publicus]

AC just didn't have the legs to go with Purito.

That gradient is JRod's speciality.

My take away is that Roman K is going to be Contador's best domestique in July.

 

[BillytheKid]

+1 Uncalled for.

 

[Lanark]

Confirmed Froome takes the Magglia Azzuria, between him and Contador in the final TT I think.

It's between Froome and Froome.

 

[wwabbit]

Where did Kwaitkowski finish?

28 seconds back. He's now in 4th place at 24". Nibali and Contator both at 20"

 

[cineteq]

LMAO Froome says "glad to see he's also human"

did he mention he's a bio hazard to all humanity?

 

[Parrot23]

Seriously, that was a real jerk move he made.

Sky should hire Karpets. Ha, ha! He's even better.

 

[Miburo]

What are the gradients of tomorrow's climbs at the end?

 

[Afrank]

I tuned in with like 6 to go, did anything significant happen on Lanciano? Or was it just Sky train the whole way up?

The latter...

The SKYborg has a sense of humor.

Don't know the gradients but very steep. I'm waiting for the stage preview

 

[Forunculo]

The race is between Froome and Kjatowski ?? (the polish guy from Omega)
