Vuelta 2012, Stage 14: Palas de Rei > Puerto de Ancares (149,2 kms)

[Descender]

Bad tarmac. I like.

Saxo really breaking things up now

 

[sulgpallur]

contador taking a cloose look at competitors

 

[Parrot23]

Contador >>>>>>>> Hesjedal.

So. No comparisons plz.

Absolutely. True.

But the imponderable here and maybe why Bertie is nervous is if he's backed off his "program" etc.

Not able to hold gaps as well (top end clearly not so strong as before, including his last Tour, sorry).

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Saxo Bank...crap entire year. Contador is back, and they all fly

 

[luckyboy]

Saxo broke the group up pretty quickly.

You were in a cave during the 2011 Giro? Now that is a reference.

 

[Parrot23]

Just remember, every time Hesjedal attacked with a real attack, then Purito was never able to go with him. He always went behind others, and he jumped somewhere in the last 2 kms.

Yes, that was my point.

 

[Miburo]

GESINK DROPPED, yet again...

 

[luckyboy]

Ah, Gesink..
