Bad weather > bad camera work

Kinda semi-drunk right now! Can't articulate or force my thoughts in an order! What's the best possible scenario for my man, the Sparrow of Cazoña ? He maybe got a great win, but I don't think that he's out of the competition for KOM or ready to surrender his spoils thus far!

 

[Laplaz]

Edet in red

 

[Sestriere]

Who is favourite for a sprint scenario? Koch? Arndt? Aranburu?

 

[ice&fire]

Aranburu doesn't want a sprint!

 

[johnymax]

LuLu's been lost

 

[Laplaz]

Arndt vs. Koch

moto crash

 

[Lequack]

Eurosport commentator saying Lopez is the most generous man, sicne he keeps giving the red jersey away.

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Arndt

 

[starlord]

Aranburu was all over the place, he could have won this

 

[JosephK]

Edet in red by 3 minutes or thereabouts. Maybe he can get top 10 now? (Was in 16th, I believe.)

 

[Laplaz]

Teuns second in GC. Crazy race by him until now

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Edet in red by 3 minutes or thereabouts. Maybe he can get top 10 now? (Was in 16th, I believe.)

Bit of a crazy finale. Nice win by Arndt.

Arndt

Someone forgot to update the heading on the overhead hoarding this morning.

This was Sunweb's first win since Chad Haga won the last stage of the Giro.

This was Sunweb's first win since Chad Haga won the last stage of the Giro.

Pretty poor compared to the past few seasons.

 

[roundabout]

nah, that was the 7th win this year and they also had 7 at the same point last year

 

[jmdirt]

I love it when a rider from a break wins! I love it even more when a rider in the break takes the race lead!

 

[skippo12]

Always nice to see one of the workhorses get a win. Arndt looked like a promising sprinter/time trialist early in his career. Never reached his potential but he improved his climbing and turned into a great helper.
