[Delicato]

Any word on liquigas?

No wonder. Liqui isn't with their best TTT team here.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Garmin -13 seconds on Rabobank in the 2nd part

So it will be 20/30 seconds at the finish

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

Garmin 13 seconds better,

blitzing it.

 

[franciep10]

Garmin 16 secs faster than Rabo 2nd checkpoint

 

[Ney the Viking]

Liquigas in at 25:45 . 45 secs behind rabo.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Liquigas loses 45 seconds!
Spectacular last part (last 6km, 23 seconds lost)

 

[Ferminal]

Bad time by Leaky, had a feeling they might be average.

 

[Jamsque]

Any word on liquigas?

45 down on Rabo at the finish. I think they'll be disappointed with that.

 

[Publicus]

Contador just picked up 30" on Basso.

 

[superconfex]

leaky....poor time by them

 

[DenisMenchov]

It is going to be an epic Tour...

 

[Sofía_]

Liquigas in at 25:45 . 45 secs behind rabo.

not too bad!!

 

[Ney the Viking]

But wow, Thor can smell the yellow.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Garmin is really firing on all cilinders. Even Navardauskas is in trouble!

 

[Jamsque]

Garmin down to 7 now and about to be down to 6.

 

[Rechtschreibfehler]

Liquigas is stunningly bad!
Usually they are the real masters of TTT as they usually don't have the type of riders that you'd expect in a good TTT team.

Though the good thing about this is that Basso will have to take some time back on a lot of guys.

 

[dlwssonic]

you cant blame liquigas they dont have any good timetrialers at all!

 

[DenisMenchov]

Garmin down to 7 now and about to be down to 6.

THey were always going to finish with 5, I mean not only stage win, but also MJ is at stake.

 

[The Sheep]

No white for Garmin

 

[Bavarianrider]

I am suprised that no one is doing a belgium circle

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

When you have 6 man left they are going much faster probably

 

[Publicus]

Garmin is killing it 24'48" (55.61 kmh)
