Nordhaug showed quite the acceleration there.

What on earth happened to Movistar?

 

[CraZyCaLL]

Sagan in the first group

 

[Parrulo]

What on earth happened to Movistar?

seems like all cept costa have vanished, not even piti is in sight . . .

 

[Cancellator]

Are there any more climbs?

 

[cineteq]

What on earth happened to Movistar?

Is Valverde even there?

The effort yesterday trying to get away while the rest of the riders were at the train crossing was too much

 

[TeoSheva]

Are there any more climbs?

yes one more

That's a pretty poor performance.

On another note, I'm not sure that gapping Cataldo so quickly was one of Nordhaug's better ideas. Here comes an Ag2r rider, and is that GVA for BMC?

 

[Cancellator]

yes one more

I hope we will see an attack from a GC guy. Otherwise... Sagain?

 

[Eyeballs Out]

There was one other Movistar rider up there in a rain jacket

Think he had to Cataldo was going to slow.

[Zinoviev Letter]

Actually, scratch that. Getting rid of Cataldo actually was a good idea because more teams in the bunch are likely to chase him.

 

[Parrulo]

let's see if we get some more attacks on the last climb

 

[TeoSheva]

Valverde is there

Movistar is reporting Rojas and Valverde are in the peloton.

British Eurosport (Harmon, I think): "Elmiger, he´s so inconsistant...".

It´s just the opposite! The inconsistancy in the last time just came from his major back problems. Just unfair to call him inconsistant, cause it´s not due to lack of class or lazyness...

I don't get the pun in the name.

 

[el chava]

This is the kind of racing I've been looking for all year.

 

[Parrulo]

wow piti working for rui!!!

 

[Zinoviev Letter]

If Rojas is there he's hiding down the back of the group. Valverde doing domestique work is an amusing sight.

 

[TourOfSardinia]

wow piti working for rui!!!

I'm loving it!

There he is, right at the back.
