Tour du Haut Var (FRA) 18 and 19/02

[Panda Claws]

at least you can understand french

I get most of it but not that well though. But since I know the french numbers I can tell how many km's it still is when they say something like that.

 

[dlwssonic]

many attacks but bretagne doing a great job!

 

[jens_attacks]

i think gerrans attacked

 

[dlwssonic]

oh **** gerrans on the attack, peloton better get him back.
BMC should help out if the gap is too big!!

 

[Panda Claws]

So according to the commentators Gerrans is the number 1 favorite.

I wonder how long it still is to the finish. Can he hold on?

 

[jens_attacks]

rolland there too with a bandaged knee

 

[dlwssonic]

Lastras in the team too. Its a strong group!!
Rolland I think too?

 

[Panda Claws]

rolland there too with a bandaged knee

Is Gerrans in that breakaway too? Or is he solo up front?

Nevermind, saw him.

 

[dlwssonic]

Should gilbert have joined that group?

 

[Panda Claws]

Should gilbert have joined that group?

If BMC keeps doing nothing then yes.

 

[jens_attacks]

degenkolb in the break lol
also fofonov

 

[dlwssonic]

If BMC keeps doing nothing then yes.

they seem to be pretty lazy nowadays

 

[Thibaut Pinot]

So according to the commentators Gerrans is the number 1 favorite.

28k according to the Movistar ticker.

bmc chasing for jon locke

 

[dlwssonic]

they should show the front of the peloton instead of the back

 

[Panda Claws]

28k according to the Movistar ticker.

Thank you

Any clue on what the gap is?

Seems to be just 15 seconds?

 

[Papparrazzi]

Less than 23k now, they just went through the Sprint ...

bmc chasing for jon locke

the sleeping giant has awakened!!
gap is 15s!!

 

[Panda Claws]

They need a helicopter.

Would be kind of handy at least.

 

[Waterloo Sunrise]

25 km arrives.

No idea what that means.

 

[jens_attacks]

don't understand gerrans,he could wait for the finish,he's strong

hope for a phil-jon locke combat.who will leave the island alive?

 

[Waterloo Sunrise]

the sleeping giant has awakened!!
gap is 15s!!

If that's it, nice to see Gerrens taking himself out of the equation, wasting energy.

 

[Panda Claws]

I hope Voeckler does something as well.

EDIT: Wow, you can see BMC really going at it right now.

 

[jens_attacks]

[dlwssonic]
