Has come down 1:30 or so in last 15k alone. Don't think break as currently composed will stay away. I expect a few will launch attacks...

What's with Kwiatk's bike?

 

[Oliver]

Astana working right now.

 

[Lexman]

Is the gap stabilized or still going down quickly?

Now it looks like the break might not even make it.

Looks like we're gonna miss half the GC action because we need to televise the first 5 break finishers

It's one of those days again I think.

 

[Salvarani]

Wow, some just have to complain about everything

 

[Lexman]

Break will have to go full out at the bottom of the Alto de La Camperona if they're still ahead of the bunch

Re:

Gap not going down that quickly anymore. I think the beset climbers in the breakaway can win it with less than 1'30 in the last 2.8km

Break needs 2'30 in the last 8km I think.

 

[Escarabajo]

Gap coming down!!

The Movis are looking really motivated right now, I don't know.

I don't really doubt the peloton could still catch them if they really want to.

Juan Antonio's scriptwriter is becoming very political.

[Lexman]

so what's the role of Erviti in the break? go for the stage but against thelikes of Zakarin, Majka etc I doubt this be possible or to be catched by Quintana on the climb and pace him as much as possible?

 

[Rollthedice]

I'd say the break will hit the climb with about 4 min. advantage, Zaka for the win.

 

[Escarabajo]

Why doesn't Movistar call Erviti back?

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Yates suffering?
as Astana drill it below 5mins

 

[Lexman]

Lotto has 4 riders still in the break (Van der Sande was distanced on the previous climb) how should they ride, each for himself (but I don't see Monfort or Armée get the stage win) or ride and protect Lambrecht ?

Re:

or they think he might be usefull on the climb?

otherwise it's not really smart riding and planning from Movi...
