Vuelta a Burgos 2013, 7th-11th August. (2.HC)

[Parrulo]

Nairo looks very smooth, followed Nibali very easily

 

[brilleaben]

Basso practising domestique work for Nibali next year.

 

[Libertine Seguros]

Arroyo coming across to them now, he's a strong climber in a good GC position too... love Lagunas de Neila.

 

[Parrulo]

Shades of the 2010 Giro

 

[Ryo Hazuki]

Big attack from Andre.

more like pathetic

 

[Vino attacks everyone]

Nibbles look fat lol

 

[Libertine Seguros]

Is that Chernetskiy in the second group with Landa, Sarmiento and Tiralongo?

¡Atáca Arroyo!

 

[brilleaben]

With Nibali and Arroyo all we need now is a descent.

 

[Ferminal]

Is that Chernetskiy in the second group with Landa, Sarmiento and Tiralongo?

¡Atáca Arroyo!

Caruso I thought.

 

[roundabout]

Basso still has the explosiveness of a snail.

But will podium the Vuelta.

Somehow.

 

[hfer07]

damn- Nibs showing off some skills

 

[Ferminal]

What just happened...

 

[Libertine Seguros]

Helicopter causing chaos for chasing group! Shades of Moser!

 

[Geraint Too Fast]

Never seen that before.

 

[Parrulo]

Lol did the heli just threw them of their bike?

 

[Libertine Seguros]

With Nibali and Arroyo all we need now is a descent.

True that. That would be one hell of a showdown, especially now Nibali doesn't have to shepherd Basso.

 

[Ferminal]

Second and third groups might come together now.

 

[Ryo Hazuki]

tasht helicopter :rofl: :lolcry: funniest thing ever

 

[Libertine Seguros]

Commentators say Chernetskiy, Samuel Sánchez and Sarmiento, but Tiralongo and Landa were with Sarmiento and the mystery Katyusha before the helicopter blew them over, and commentators think Caruso is with Tiralongo post-crash and André Cardoso (Landa has re-caught the 2nd group).

Which way round are Chernetskiy and Caruso?

 

[Parrulo]

Quintana must have watched Horner last night

The groups were Sarmiento Caruso Landa Tiralongo and Chernetskiy Sanchez and Cardoso. Not 100% on the order

 

[Libertine Seguros]

Nibali is 7" behind Quintana and Arroyo, who are tied on time 17" behind Roux at the start of the day. Basso is practically GC-irrelevant.

Landa group is in front, or was pre-heli crash. Think it's now Sarmiento Caruso Landa, and Chernetskiy Tiralongo Cardoso (Sánchez?).

Arroyo attacks for the win on the steepest section, Quintana and Nibali looking at one another!!! 13" for Arroyo already!!!

Now Nibali goes, Quintana chasing!!!

 

[brilleaben]

Vamos Arroyo!

 

[Kazistuta]

Doesn't Quintana know that Arroyo is at same time GC wise???

EDIT: Okay, he had NOS in the tank..
