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

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

Mosqeura isn't gonna make enough time on nibali here.

Barredo has this in the bag btw.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Nibali group very close to Mosquera.
Mosquera simply isn't making the gap.

 

[Lyds97]

Eh?

Yeah, he was slightly off.. 2'57" now.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Peter Velits is really breaking through this Vuelta.

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

liking that velits is finally meeting his potential.

^ DT beats me to it

 

[Lyds97]

Danielson dropped - or just out of shot?

 

[Escarabajo]

Whoever said about the coach trying to pace Nibali up the climb (on the radio) at a steady pace is a genius!

That is the key.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Danielson dropped - or just out of shot?

Dropped uphill.

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Nibali forced to work in a spanish sandwich!

Bet purito takes red tonight

 

[Dutchsmurf]

That downhill is probably the most dangerous part of today.

 

[Lyds97]

Nice win by Mr Combativity.

meh i can't see purito making a lot time. If anything him taking the red by a slight margin will benefit nibali.

 

[Zoncolan]

Go Eze. Catch those bonus seconds!

Shame. He could have used that extra 8 secs.

 

[Dutchsmurf]

Go Eze. Catch those bonus seconds!

Not going to happen. Velits is 3rd.

 

[Christomir]

Yeah, Slovak cycling seems to have a bright future with Velits and Sagan

I wish the same could be said about Bulgarian cycling, but it won't happen. The Tour of Bulgaria started yesterday and it doesn't even have a website

 

[icefire]

Only 10 seconds

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

epic 11 seconds gain.

nibali looks good to win the vuelta at this stage.

 

[Dutchsmurf]

11 seconds difference...

And that strange Moncoutie....

 

[Lyds97]

11 seconds on Nibali, Velits, J-Rod.

Roche, Schleck and Sastre next.

Moncoutie and Txurruka.

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

Tondo's podium hopes have taken a big hit.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Meh, Nibali now nearly wins the vuelta, if he can just limit the damage again tomorrow it's over

 

[Publicus]

Roche is having an excellent Vuelta

 

[Dutchsmurf]

Tondo losing 1.5 minute today. So then there were 3 left.

 

[vcampbell]

Today just 11 seconds, but finally he was able to arrive before all of his rivals. Tomorrow will be a killing stage, if Nibali will strugle, than anything can happen.

 

[Mellow Velo]

Wtf is Eskimo Tom?
He was last man out of the Nibali bunch.
Velits eh? Who' da thunk it?

Bit of a zzzzzzzznoozefest.

Edit. Tom in ahead of Roche. Becoming a bit of a dark horse, since he can trial.
