Having a little trouble placing Onley's accent, he was effectively born on the border so i think it's Scots with a hint of geordie.

Javier Guillén, director of the Vuelta a España, has dropped the bombshell after assuring that Primoz Roglic, Juan Ayuso, Mikel Landa and Sepp Kuss are confirmed for this year's edition, and also does not rule out the presence of Tadej Pogacar and Jonas Vingegaard. An affirmation that goes against what some teams have been arguing in public.

 

[Zoetemelk-fan]

Just bumped into the stage.
Fully as expected with Visma sending two strongest men out and UAE fiddling the line a bit, giving Jorgenson and Kelderman false hopes, ensuring they're fully burned out midway up Restefond
All cards plays into Pogi's pocket today.

 

[RobertCrawley]

That's "m'am"!



Must've missed that.

My apologies!

Probably Guillen chatting his usual mess but I'm choosing to believe.

 

[fbjim]

this is a pretty ugly ski station but it doesn't compare to Superdevouly or La Mongie imo.


how's Isola 2000, is that an ugly station?

 

[noob]

That's "m'am"!

Not miss?

 

[Zoetemelk-fan]

Hit?

Visma's top hit.

Gianetti said Ayuso won't. Wow the inhouse battles are baffling if true.

 

[RedheadDane]

Not miss?

I'm pretty sure m'am is the female equivalent of sir.
Or maybe dame, but that sounds weird.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Did anyone start a timer at the bottom of Vars? Is Dombrowksi's record from the 2016 Giro stage in danger?

 

[RobertCrawley]

Vingegaard has his 2 best climbing teammates 3 minutes up the road.

Abject failure of UAE but it wont matter

Yep. In the end, it's mano a mano.

 

[Tim Cahill]

'Do a pull and we wont contest the points' type of deal going here

 

[perico]

Let's hope everyone stays on their bikes!

Back in the Bilzahera era.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Its not even Dombrowskis.

But any 2016 Giro time will be clobbered by minutes today.

Theyll beat the Bonette time by 5 minutes despite going to the top

You're telling me the Tour graphics department is lying to me? Disappointing.

 

[rallybanana]

Beautiful mountain scenery they are riding through right now

This area must be close to the Parque Nacional de Mercantour

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Jorgenson feeling his oats

 

[RobertCrawley]

I would not be walking across that Chatelet Bridge.

 

[Scarponi]

That bridge is amazing

 

[fbjim]

i love how this part of the alps look, Bonette especially is gorgeous

 

[iBanesto]

Jorgensen is roughly only 4 mins behind Gee for 9th spot on the GC.

Wonder if IPT or BV will be willing to assist UAE with the pacing.

 

[fbjim]

this is all a setup for Jorgenson to launch a brutal GC bomb, win by 25 minutes, and take yellow

 

[RobertCrawley]

There's a global communication outage going on right now, cancelling flights. If the race goes dark, I shall be very sad.

We'll be fine, if the equipment was using crowdstrike we'd have been down this morning following overnight updates.

That would be epic.
