Vuelta a España Vuelta a España 2020: Stage 10 (Castro Urdiales › Suances 185 km)

Ski jumping

ski jumpers have won like 9 times but they don't have a top ski jumper right now. Prevc is far from his best form.

 

[Red Rick]

They gave the photofinnish lol

 

[Koronin]

They can't seem to make up their mind if there is or isn't a 3 second time gap.

It's clearly time for him (and/or his brothers) to make the switch

 

[Carols]

The ultimate cyborg.

He even acts like one off the bike.

You've obviously never seen him aside from races. When he is with his family or hanging with the boys he is very warm and animated.

 

[Escarabajo]

So basically Roglic wants to lose this in the fashion as he did in the Giro 2019.

But Chapeau to him for the stage and for being such a fighter.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Big blow for Carthy. He's the only losing 10 seconds. Someone might ask where were Woods?

They... didn't change it again, right? Roglic is still in read?!

 

[Bolder]

Kudos to G. Martin btw.

Not the most talented of the bunch but damn, he's trying to make the most of it. Not afraid to animate the race unlike some other clowns.

He came into the Vuelta without expectations, if I recall, and shipped a lot of time. But he's clawing his way back to his typical 11th, as someone noted...one of these years I think he'll grab a top 5 in a GT or at least a big weeklong race. Plus, you know, philosopher.

No one wanted to work with him. Not even Carthy. DISGUSTING WHEELSUCKER!

 

[Bolder]

I think Roglic would rip it apart and sprint to a victory on just the front wheel... Don't ask me how

How great would a GT raced on tandems be?

 

[richwallone]

What really surprises me is that Mareczko came in only 1'29" behind and Sam Bennett ended up the last, almost 13 minutes down... I hope it won't backfire tomorrow for Mareczko and he gets in under the OTL... He is currently valiantly defending laterne rouge!

Schlecks would dominate tbh

 

[cellardoor]

except paris rubaix i agree

Probably the race he's most suited too

 

[Samu Cuenca]

And he even wheelsucked his way to 101st place.

Ski jumping

Ski jumping is very popular in Slovenia.

Did Roglic surprise everybody? Or no one had enough in the tank to keep up?

I feel Rog is probably super confident about the weekend. I wonder if the peloton knows that Carapaz doesn't have it in him to mount a challenge (esp taking the ITT into account).

Doncic would be a strong contender

 

[Leinster]

You ever see a tandem descend?


Now imagine BOTH Schlecks on one of those...

 

[Scarponi]

Schlecks would dominate tbh

Kruezigur towing contador 2013?

 

[Leinster]

That's not the problem

The problem is he'll pay for this effort in the coming days

He might pay for the effort, but he made his effort just after Carapaz blew up. So unless Carthy and Martin were playing it cagey, I think it'll work out ok for him.

 

[Luthor]

Doncic would be a strong contender

Yep.
If Rog wins Vuelta, I think a bigger question would be who wins Velo D'Or? WVA, Pog or Rog?

 

[Koronin]

Who knows. I'm sure we'll know for sure in the morning.

 

[IndurainsTdF1994]

You mean JA, not WVA, right? A tie for Slovenia.

I know I was just jokingly mentioning it as Roglic was one in his "past life".
