Tour of the Basque Country 2012

[Havetts]

Sky pushed on pace, caught break of the day on penultimate categorised climb, splintering went on in some biblical-level rain, people struggled to work out who was where, a 9-man break got away when things came back together, with Kiserlovski in it, so he burned up his domestique in the group and attacked on the Puerto de Asentzio. It's do or die for him, but everybody else is racing like a coward that wants to give this race to Tony Martin, so he's the only one who's really taken the bull by the horns and gone for it totally.

Thanks LS.

 

[Fetisoff]

it's even more pathetic when you realize purito has nothing to do in this gc with tomorrws itt sanchez and martin should solve this

Exactly... Just to stay one more day in the leader's jersey.

Any other team would do exact same thing, and understandable from sporting point of view, but as a fan, just makes me mad


P.S. And to make things worse, they're killing Spilak in the process, it seems

sanchez can win this race though. because tomorrow is rain and technical and hilly itt

 

[Flamin]

Okay, thanks very much. Kuddos for Kiserlovski then.

 

[Maaaaaaaarten]

Still waiting for that uncategorized supposedly 10% 1km climb, how far was that from the finish?

Should be epic after all this racing. I hope there will be some more attacking there .

4km to go, then is the little climb

 

[Bavarianrider]

Why are they not chasing Kiserlovski together?

 

[goggalor]

Still 45' apparently

 

[Vino attacks everyone]

Kiserlovski, i do really start to like that guy

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Why are they not chasing Kiserlovski together?

Because Kiserlovski is a brute hero and not a coward like the guys in the peloton inclusive your hero

 

[Eyeballs Out]

Rodriguez could win the stage today - attack on the hill 3km from the fin. Katusha are right to chase

 

[Libertine Seguros]

Okay, thanks very much. Kuddos for Kiserlovski then.

It's so not going to be enough since he'll be so burned out for the TT tomorrow, but hopefully he at least gets the stage win for it. He deserves it, for having the guts to actually turn this stage route into a race.

 

[Havetts]

Kiserlovski is a beast.. But let the attacks flow!

 

[Maaaaaaaarten]

4km to go, then is the little climb

Thanks, I can't wait for it

We should see some action there, if we've done the right calculations, with 1km at 10%.

 

[Ryo Hazuki]

2 riders in between kiserlovski and group right??

 

[BillytheKid]

He's holding on, Roadriguez and team not getting any help. Hope they all pay for it.

Where's your heroe by the way?
Winning crap races in the middle of nowhere cause without Epo he's simply awful?

 

[Fetisoff]

Rodriguez could win the stage today - attack on the hill 3km from the fin. Katusha are right to chase

Even if they don't, he'll get to go to podium one more time, which also counts. Just sucks that it's at Kiserlovski's expense, who's been awesome today.

Nice comeback...

 

[Havetts]

Niki Sorensen attacked?

If the climb's steep enough and the right length it doesn't matter (Orio 2010), but this one I don't think is long enough. Then again, he was OK in Zumarraga last year.

haters gonna hate, even a T.Martin fan should cheer for Kiserlovski today because he shows balls.

But even then your favoritism takes over. It's kinda sad. You're a guy who would cheer against a guy like Vinokourov in a brute solo if he threatens T.Martin somewhere

 

[The Sheep]

now you girls play nice

 

[Havetts]

Seems like Malori & Pinotti are still between Soresen & Kiserlovski
