Vuelta a España Vuelta a España 2021: Stage 6 (Requena - Montaña de Cullera, 158.3 km)

Seems to be a nice battle for the breakaway. Sad that Eurosport Player doesn´t show us anything about it..

NVM two guys have 42 seconds

 

[Red Rick]

Big crash involving Movistar, Astana and Alpecin split the peloton but everyone is back now.

Sill no break. Schachmann also tried. Perhaps we get a break after the three smal hills.

Where do you watch it? Is there already a livestream?

 

[Faserr]

No. Lavuelta live ticker.

 

[Earns1985]

My assumption is that Eurosport will go online when the breakaway has established..

 

[Faserr]

Haha, yes. Road block for the TV.

 

[sir fly]

You know there's more in it when WTs are involved in the day's breakaway.

That was so clear... ^^
They really should change their transmission. The beginning and the end with a break in the middle is the best for everyone, if they don´t show the whole stage...

So Cort has this in the bag, no team is gonna ride with the hard mountain stages to come.

You don't have to watch the middle. Many of us do

 

[Red Rick]

Lame doesn't even begin to describe it.

Trek: Gets red jersey

Trek: Puts Antonio Nibali on chasing duty

 

[Samamba]

They're gonna do it again aren't they? Gonna let a lame breakaway get a free stage win. Pls Movistar, do something, save me.

Atleast Cort wouldn't be an ugly stage winner.

One BikeExchange rider at the front of the peloton. Do they think Matthews can win here?

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Don't know why everyone is so surprised at lame breakaways being gifted stages, the Vuelta has always been like this in normally scheduled years - it's just three years since Ben King won both the first-week MTFs. It's one of the main reasons why I disagree with people who rate the Vuelta over the Giro.

 

[Samamba]

Bike exchange saving us. Thanks for still believing in Matthews although we all know he won't win

Giro also 95% of the time gifts the first MTF away tbh.

Noone is surprised tho? Most are just tired of it. It's not just the Vuelta, it's in every single GT. It's boring.

I don't see how they're gonna close 7 minutes tbh.

 

[Aimar16]

Hopefully the stage stays boring and Cort wins. The odds was 40x at the beginning of the break

They've closed more than 30s in 5 minutes

he was x 21 before the race started, I highly doubt this is true
