Re:

Solo ride from Spilak for 8.5 km? He is bound to crack, no?

The rest is basically riding solo too, besides, it's a climb.

Not sure but maybe spilak went a bit too early. He doesn't look that good anymore

Literally nobody does at this point. Oddly Nieve looks smoothest to me.

 

[Escarabajo]

I guess it is easier to climb this when you are light like Sebastian Henao!

 

[Alexandre B.]

Soler exploded.

 

[Velolover2]

Is that Bentancur I just saw?

 

[Eclipse]

I always have to do a double take when I see Betancur shown on screen in a panning shot of the various GC contenders haha

 

[Vasilis]

Hirt still there, another good ride.

 

[Supimilian]

This climb is so ridiculous they could just start the stage right at the foot and not even bother.
First steep part, flatter kms, toll booth, second steeper part, hairpin section, lava pit, tunnel, cactus maze...

Shirley Spilak will start to struggle?

I want betancur to win la vuelta

Re:

One would think. And don't call him Shirley.

 

[Velolover2]

Pozzovivo coming a back a bit. Sugar crisis or post-Giro fatigue?

 

[Escarabajo]

So what's up with Spilak, is he always hot? His shirt is always open!

He hates the heat so you might not be far off to be honest

 

[Kokoso]

Well Taaramae was resting like all the stages before, no wonder he spared some power compared to others. Nonetheless he doesn't look strongest, couldn't follow Kruijswijk I think.

Similar with Dombrowski, he too spared some power for this.

Edit: could follow Kruijswijk.

 

[Squire]

Just tuned in. What on earth has happened?

 

[Kokoso]

Great racing, anyway.

 

[Supimilian]

Good stage, but this kind of race would be much better without power meters and HR monitors.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Pozzo finally riding as a leader, defending the jersey rightfully. Go.

 

[Velolover2]

Amazing scenery.

[Velolover2]

What a beauty of a climb.

Good thing Dumo chose to go home, he had never survived this one!
