Volta Ciclista a Catalunya 2018

Re: Re:

Chaves crashed and is out of the race...

His start been awful this season. Both P-N and this stage race been very disappointing.

His Paris-Nice was very good. Better than ever at this point of the season.

He never raced P-N before this year? And he did not finish... and was far behind in GC for his caliber before the last stage.

He was 63 in GC here, before this stage.

I would not say that is "better than ever at this point of the season" ...

Did you watch the race? Prior to getting ill, he was a sure top 10 finish and did very well in a time trial of all places. Before and after the stage to Vence he crashed, got sick and it started raining a lot, which isn't exactly his forté. He was never that good in March.

So it ended in disappointment? Which is was what I said...

 

[LaFlorecita]

Quite an enjoyable stage so far

Third attack from Mohoric!

I wonder what he can do in Amstel Gold Race with the new race profile.

You stated his PN as a whole was a disappointment. It wasn't.

I said "Both P-N and this stage race been very disappointing". Obviously refering to things as him getting sick and crashing, which was said in your first post that I quoted.

Where did Jungels go?

 

[Escarabajo]

Sad to hear about the Chaves crash. Apart from that he was preparing OK. Cold weather hit him hard but he has riding tough. Hope is nothing serious.

 

[Scarponi]

I'm so glad the last two years these hilly stages have been attacked properly

 

[Escarabajo]

So who are the best sprinters?
Valverde, Jungels, Pantano?

 

[Velolover2]

This is like watching horse racing. Fun route.

 

[Salvarani]

[Salvarani]

[Escarabajo]

Who was the Movistar rider???

 

[Velolover2]

Broken collarbone? Noo.

Bernal should get the s/t as the leading group.

Re:

[Jungle Cycle]

[MuskyOurSaviour]

So Poels crashing out of PN win and now Bernal out of 2nd. Sky having fun this year

 

[Arredondo]

Let's hope Bernal isn't too injured

 

[Jungle Cycle]

Bernal went head first... that helmet might saved his life....

 

[Velolover2]

1. Valverde
2. Quintana
3. Yates
