Only 49 sec..
Rosa led first, and on stage 3 it was Moscon pulling, Nieve just got back up to the front to pull after that.TMP402 said:For some reason I thought it was Rosa working on the climb not Moscon, but then again I thought it was Moscon leading Froome up the final climb on Stage 3 and it was apparently Nieve.

We couldn't see what was happening as Froome attacked at the bend. Luckily we had Kirby there to make up what happened, saying that Contador couldn't live with Froome's attackgunara said:The camera works in the Vuelta, from year to year since I watched, is a constant reform to any editing and story telling technique known to human. Especially when having to deal with scattered breakaway groups with big time gaps from the main peloton, or uphill fast race in twisted short climb (which almost what it is all about), they often lost their way completely, showing the bend, or nothing at all, waiting from someone or some group to arrive at the empty spot then cut away. When you tuned in late, it's even worse. Wonder why. Who are these guys behind it?
It was missing a "?". It was a questionJRanton said:portugal11 said:Froome had a flat tyre
Is this true?
rick james said:where are the story about froome getting flat from? is it a case of sky weren't at the front so folk have put 2+2=5
it was raised earlier in the thread when we seen how tight the roads to the climb were it going to be a fight to get in a good position at the start of the climb, maybe sky messed up the approachJRanton said:rick james said:where are the story about froome getting flat from? is it a case of sky weren't at the front so folk have put 2+2=5
I watched the footage back and he was just not in a great position coming into the climb. No flat.

after stage 5? Really??ontheroad said:Froome's consistency in grand tours is remarkable. It's fair to say that the race for the recd jersey is over barring an accident or an ambush, he is just too strong.

well, when they started the climb almost the whole of Sky were no where to be seen, but the camera work was so crap and with Carlton f**king Kirby doing to commentary who the hell knows what was going on

Flecha's English is more understandable than the Yates'. I listened to an interview with Adam the other day and was wishing for subtitles.portugal11 said:Simon yates speaks like an australian guy...
