Vuelta a España - Stage 15 Solares - Lagos de Covadonga 187.3km

[TourOfSardinia]

Is Joa. Rodríguez still in the Nibali group?

 

[roundabout]

Here comes Xacobeo... Finally.

Barredo now in the hardest km of the climb and its advantage is growing

 

[Zinoviev Letter]

Barredo is holding the gap steady at the moment, which makes it look like he has it in the bag.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Was that Rodriguez hanging on on the back of the group??

 

[Christomir]

OK, I guess regardless of how much strength he managed to save, while riding in the break, Barredo should be able to hold on FTW here. They can't catch him.

 

[roundabout]

I think Purito has the combined jersey

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Karpets playing jojo.

Isn't Rodriguez in the White?

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

I think Purito has the combined jersey

Yeah I saw him now, still looking decent.

 

[roundabout]

I lkie the way Barredo is going. Unless he has a meltdown the stage is his.

Sastre attacks, Mosquera reacts!

edit: Kreuziger closes it easily!
Leaky power

 

[Zoncolan]

Vamos Carlito!

Heh, nice job by Kreuziger. Far better than his GC says

[Wergeland]

Tondo strggling. The diesel can't take the acceleration.

 

[The Sheep]

So Sastre nearly killed Tondo?

 

[icefire]

Tondo drops!

 

[vcampbell]

Tondo off.

 

[Mellow Velo]

Tondo's bought it! 3rd week starts today.

 

[Zoncolan]

Tondo cracks? Or pacing himself again?
