And he gets beaten by Kwiatkowski and Santambrogio, that's even more shameful than being crushed by a couple of S-Americans.

What about Contador and Nibali ? lol... If you make a point, at least make a good one.

Thanks for proving a point. Even in January, in his bad shape, JVDB is better than 99% of the South-Americans in their good shape.

99% of the south americans? :eek: maybe 2% of the south american pro riders are here, and virtually none of them colombian, who are great climbers, brazileans, argentineans, chileans etc mostly aren't great climbers, yet somone like diniz wins here. it says enough how disapointed the argentinean media were with how europeans rode.

I'm obviously talking about the South-Americans in this race. The same ones you said were going to crush JVDB. Perhaps the Argentinean media doesn't realize it's only January.

Stage 5 status:
km 57 (de 170) primeros 130k en plano, luego montaña. Fuga: Hacecky y Emanuel Guevara, a 10´ de peloton

Looks like we will have a stage winner from the GC perhaps.

18 minutes for the two escapees with 36k to go.

Interesting. Could be very difficult to get sufficient time back for QS.

Anybody with info on how much these two guys are back in the GC?

Edit:ah forget it.

139 Martin Hacecky (Cze) ASC Dukla Praha 0:27:38
148 Emmanuel Guevara (Arg) San Luis Somos Todos 0:34:19

Confirmamos que Díaz y Contador tiran del pelotón. A unos 10 minutos de Guevara. #TourSanLuis

no tirar el peloton apparently means to pull it. So hes at the front. It doesnt mean he attacked.

someone else said with the help of google translate though that Contador jumped.

I don't know, but they're at least pulling then or what?

Confusing.
