Vuelta a España Vuelta a España 2021: Stage 17 (Unquera - Lagos de Covadonga, 185.8 km)

[roundabout]

Congratulations to Roglic. A much more memorable win then being delivered to a last km uphill sprint

 

[Netserk]

Riding all out to the line. No show off.

 

[Fantastico]

He won it through being so much stronger. Quintana copped a lot of crap on here when it was Movistar a lot of the time.

It was often crap by Quintana as well. Remember when he didn't tell them he was not feeling well and they paced a whole stage for nothing?

 

[BlueRoads]

I don't think I have seen any tactical shine today, from any team.

 

[Scarponi]

Roglic riding past Kuss winning second hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahajah

 

[Red Rick]

Kuss sprinting like a kid who lost his mom and then finds her.

 

[Billie]

Kuss DSQ on a mountain finish. Can't remember that ever happening.

 

[Scarponi]

It was often crap by Quintana as well. Remember when he didn't tell them he was not feeling well and they paced a whole stage for nothing?

Ofcourse but this forum was unfair because the hero Valverde was the other rider...

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Roglic already descending back before the rest finishes, with his domestique leading the way for them.

 

[Netserk]

Ha, Roglič was already riding back down the mountain before the others crossed the line!

 

[Breezy1985]

Did they almost just hit Rog going back down ?

 

[roundabout]

pretty lame by the chasers to actually lose time on the last climb to Roglic who was in a 2-rider break for almost 50k before the start of the climb

 

[SafeBet]

Magnificent Roglic.
Kudos to Bernal for trying, heart of a champion.

Finally a great stage.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Kuss DSQ on a mountain finish. Can't remember that ever happening.

Zakarin did it in Romandie once iirc. Kuss should be fine though, didn't change his line.

 

[TourOfSardinia]

How sad

 

[Lequack]

Wow what a stage we had today. Almost reminded me of Froome on Finestre kind of vibe. Great entertainment.

 

[limak_]

And they almost crashed into Rogla descending to the bus

 

[tobydawq]

Yeah? You think otherwise?

Now I don't. Before today, I was definitely not sure at all.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Can we get a relegation for Sepp Kuss please, been getting sprinting tips from Groenewegen

 

[Danskebjerge]

It would have been kind of cool if Kuss had hit Roglic and crashed while Roglic was on his way in the opposite direction ...

 

[hfer07]

It's done

Bravo Roglic
Bravo Egan for the courage

 

[perico]

He won it through being so much stronger. Quintana copped a lot of crap on here when it was Movistar a lot of the time.

Nairo got dropped by his own lead out. There aren’t enough Movistar riders left here for a lead out. Valverde out, Oliveira shredded, Verona crashed on the descent. There were literally down to their last two riders.

 

[tobydawq]

And they almost crashed into Rogla descending to the bus

That would have been the most legendary crash ever.

 

[Rackham]

You legend!!! Unreal.

Best win of his career IMO. I'm a bit speechless here.

 

[Warhawk]

I'm sorry, was Kuss supposed to crash into Lopez in order to let Yates go by?
