Vuelta a España 2019 stage 14: San Vicente De La Barquera - Oviedo > 188km

[RedheadDane]

Danish Commentator: It's Spanish flat (2000 vertical metres)…

 

[Carols]

Mezgec is Slovenian. I'll pick him.

 

[Noddy97]

Please tell me that this fat alan davis isn't the talented aussie sprinter.

Bottom of the finishing rise, if I'm not mistaking.

Ok, the most exciting thing about this stage are our attempts to figure out whether it is or it is not a sprint stage

 

[Simurgh]

Birdstrike! Fuglsang attacks hahaha

I'm pretty sure it's a sprint-stage. The question is; Will there be any sprinters?

And what the *** was that?

 

[Cance > TheRest]

That was weird

The landscape and views are appealing, but the finish's puzzling, so...

 

[Eyeballs Out]

Hopefully Gaviria is fully recovered from that stage 1 crash now

Well I have to admit I'm "watching" only the live ticker so the views are... Not particularly breathtaking

 

[ice&fire]

Gap coming down very slowly

 

[KZD]

Crash with the GC riders involved

 

[Simurgh]

Crash! Valverde was down, among others

 

[Cance > TheRest]

Nice win. Bennett is a beast.

 

[ice&fire]

Weird sprint. Bennett wins anyway

 

[Pricey_sky]

Bennett easy, hopefully those in the crash are ok.

 

[sir fly]

That was an interesting finale.
A lot easier than I've expected.
Congrats to Bennett.

And the crash's never nice to see.
Hopefully, everybody gets well.

 

[Simurgh]

Great stage win by Bennett, that was an amazing show of strength.

Pogacar down too, I fear

 

[RedheadDane]

Impressive win by Bennett!

Hope nobody was too badly hurt, but that Mitchelton rider (Mezgec?) was not looking too good. At least he was moving his leg, though…

 

[Pricey_sky]

EF rider and Mezgec went down hard. Valverde down and maybe Pogacar too? Roglic just about avoided it.

 

[Carols]

Nasty Crash Hopefully all are okay!

Stage

 

[DNP-Old]

Someone from the Quick-Step team needs to come out and explain their tactics and thinking here. It was obvious for anyone with half a brain and with 5 seconds to waste to look at the stage profile that Jakobsen wouldn't come remotely close here. What were they doing all day?

They just trusted the garbage profile in the vuelta official site
