Poker faced. Tranquillo.Carols said:I was zeroed in on his reactions all day. The man never took a deep breath and looks incredibly relaxed.
Yes it's essential to keep those 2 under strict control.whittashau said:I'm worried about Vincenzo's help in the mountains the more I watch this Tour. Kangert showed in last year he isn't going to bury himself completely as he likes to keep a high placing in GC. Birdsong made it clear on ES today that he's targeting a top 5 finish, and Scarponi hasn't shown too much form thus far. Thankfully it seems like Westra will be a great helper. Grivko too.
And hopefully Vino just scares Jakob into working hard for Nibbles when he needs it.
Like a BOSS!pigoonse said:Feeling very proud about the way the shark rides in a yellow jersey!
OMG he looks like a girl! He better ride for Nibs that is all I can say.Pippo_San said:

Very interesting and apt description of Nibali - The Cirneco....not quite as catchy as Lo Squalo, though.Carols said:"The Cirneco originates from the slopes of mount Etna in Sicily and is used for hunting on the slopes of the volcano."
"It's described as being elegant, lean but powerful, light but resistant. It is excellent for hunting, as a guard dog and for company," Mura wrote in La Repubblica, noting that Nibali will probably need all those qualities and abilities to defend the Tour de France leader's jersey."
He said Nibali is 1 kilo and a half less than Vuelta, skinny Pappy has a trained eye. And he later said 45 sec in the ITT. Long time until then but if everything goes well the TT will be close contested between the two.maxmartin said:Chris Horner GC prediction,
Nibali is better than his Veulta form. I want to slap his face when he said AC can take two mins in the ITT. LOL

That's a big call before the mountains.Afrank said:I think he might need better then Giro 2013 form.
Very lucid analysis by Horner, interesting details you notice when you're in the bunch for so long.pigoonse said:Horner is great in that interview. Straight up honest pappy
Nibali needs at least his Giro 2013 form to win, agreed. He is maybe already there... soon we find out.
