Vuelta a España - Stage 6 Caravaca de Cruz - Murcia 151km

[The Hitch]

Gilbert effortlessly pulled out a gap on the early parts of a descent. How much time do he and pipo have on the Peloton.

 

[jaylew]

Pozzato and Gilbert having a go?

 

[Hugo Koblet]

Ah too bad that Pozzato and Gilbert didn't decide to go for it.

 

[The Hitch]

its rare to see a leaders jersey pull out a gap on a flat stage.

 

[Jamsque]

Friere vs Hushovd for the stage, then?

 

[Hugo Koblet]

I swear that everytime I see an Astana rider attack I instinctly think it's Vino.

 

[jaylew]

Fofonov...

 

[The Hitch]

Hushovd in there. So a sprinter will win this. Depends who else is in there. Freire? Farrar?

 

[Jukebox]

He's Foffin' off the front.

 

[Hugo Koblet]

Hushovd in there. So a sprinter will win this. Depends who else is in there. Freire? Farrar?

Koldo Fernandez perhaps?

Farrar won't be there. Davis perhaps, maybe Bennati. Pozzato and Bole might have a shot. Who else?

 

[The Hitch]

I said farrar because i have seen him get over hills before, better than cav.

 

[icefire]

Davis is in a second group 15 seconds behind

 

[therhodeo]

Barredo goes.

 

[Machu Picchu]

I trust Hushovd will actually contest today ?_?

Advice please:

Using fromsport, I can get Spanish commentary at a reasonable volume (but adverts and several minutes time lag), or Eurosport with English commentary at a very very low volume. My laptop is by no means a games/home entertainment centre, but its speaker is audible, and capable of being loud, on any other site/programme. I'll be able to see the frantic sprint, but be left to my own ability to recognise those involved.

 

[Hugo Koblet]

Freire probably isn't in the group neither as Rabobank is sitting at the back.

 

[Ferminal]

Don't worry, Harmon calls the wrong sprinter most of the time!
