Toni Carvalho is out in front. Fernandes is a pathetic time trialist, 1m30s is not enough for him vs Carvalho tomorrow.Pure Milaneza stuff going on here.
Well, when a rider suddenly discovers ability, they sometimes discover hitherto unknown ability in all formats. This is A Volta. However, it might be a moot point as they're going to Gewiss '94 it from the looks of things. Fred shouldn't want that though. He needs time over Melcior.Toni Carvalho is out in front.

No, even with his newfound abilities, is just awful.Well, when a rider suddenly discovers ability, they sometimes discover hitherto unknown ability in all formats. This is A Volta.

I don't understand why Fred didn't attack with 5 km to go. Carvalho could have stayed with Moreira.
But why? Why not win with a portuguese rider?!I think the team wants to have SuperMauri as the Volta winner.

Great stage from Marque.
W52 only got pulled a couple of weeks before the race, they thought they'd just have to celebrate anything they got!I'm disappointed they hadn't rehearsed a proper 1-2-3 celebration!
I don't think they need to go on a training camp weeks in advance for that. They could have done it this morning after breakfast.W52 only got pulled a couple of weeks before the race, they thought they'd just have to celebrate anything they got!
Mauricio seems to be a classy guy and get along with his teammates.I think the DS gets along well with Mauricio.
A few things to say guys
Maybe I'm the only one that things this race is a little bit sad?
Just seems like a lot of meaningless clinic activity and suffering
I also don't understand why Figuiredo is giving the race to his teammate who is not the strongest.
I used to be excited about the Volta but it just seems a bit tragic now
