Vuelta a España Vuelta a España 2021: Stage 11 (Antequera - Valdepeñas de Jaén, 133.6 km)

[Eeslliw]

Yes Carlton, yes, we need power metres for safety. SERIOUSLY?!

He is correct, without it riders would go too much in red and have heart attack. Basically power meters are holding riders back with those imaginary numbers called watts

DSM probably unironically thinks riders are too dumb to not accidentally kill themselves without the team intervening.

I'm beginning to hope the price of olive oil's gonna level with sunflower's.
...Olivares de Jaen can make it.

 

[Red Rick]

Smells like stage 6 right now. Wasn't that also a 5 man breakaway?

 

[Eyeballs Out]

Looks like it should be tailwind for the Cat 2 and on to the finish so that helps the break a bit, might even get a worthwhile attack out of the peloton

 

[glassmoon]

I hope Rogla will go after the stage win. And I hope he'll get it.

For some riders that might actually be the easiest way out of the team

 

[Red Rick]

Ineos gonna slow the peloton down

 

[Sciatic]

They are winding it up prior to the Cat 2, let’s see if they follow through.

 

[MartinGT]

Movi controlling this, nice.

 

[MartinGT]

When is Carapaz going to start pulling for Rogo?

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Vanhoucke descending it's terrible. Cavagna level

 

[roundabout]

Movi should save themselves to position MAL for the last murito

edit: seems they are down to Verona only already as help

Edit 2 ; ok Verona + 1

 

[Samamba]

Vanhoucke descending it's terrible. Cavagna level

He crashed 4 times this Vuelta, his whole body is bruised, what do you expect. It's a miracle he's still in the race, no reason to take any risks here.

yeah, not sure positioning is the only issue, though. In the past, he has been pretty bad in general at those very explosive finishes.

I think Carapaz was dropped right at the beginning of the climb btw, wasn't he?!

 

[Eeslliw]

Cort again with great ride, might pull another close one.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Cort is the new De Gendt.

Yeah, I think he was slightly off the back even on the previous uphill, so he should be dropped even if I didn't catch it

Naaah... I think it's gonna be hard.

I don't think my nerves could take it!

 

[perico]

Will Pidcock have a go?

Dudes been a massive drain on my fantasy team

 

[ontheroad]

Cort keeping an entire peloton at bay on the climb!

 

[dercuforever]

Cort must have stolen all his teammates' energy.

 

[glassmoon]

Dudes been a massive drain on my fantasy team

dude should've been destroying mtb guys in Val di Sole WCH instead...

 

[Samu Cuenca]

I think Cort will blow up like in Romandie in the end, but he's definitely giving it a good shot here, despite my earlier criticism.

 

[Samamba]

Ridiculous how Cort is still 30 seconds ahead, peloton is actually going all out.
