[KZD]

Ayuso goes from afar!

 

[Netserk]

Ayuso!

 

[Didinho]

Ayuso already. Aaand 3 Jumbo’s in his wheel.

 

[Samamba]

UAE really failed by missing that break. No one ahead for Ayuso now.

 

[Rob5091]

It's 30C so this is pretty brutal.

 

[Salvarani]

Ayuso, lol

 

[SHAD0W93]

Ayuso smash!

 

[Samamba]

Where tf comes De La Cruz from. Didn't know he was still alive

 

[CyclistAbi]

Mano-a-mano-a-JV 50km to go.

 

[Netserk]

So what did they think this would bring them?

 

[Tim Cahill]

Juan Ayuso with an Ian Stannard style attack where the first 30 seconds are him trying to accelerate.

 

[RobertCrawley]

Movistar are just performing to their level. They've never been one of the big budget teams, and have simply had more prominence than their budget would suggest for many years because of having a couple of big-ticket leaders and getting a larger amount of prominence in screen time due to racing like absolute headless chickens for said leaders.

Their racing just reflects the riders at their disposal. They were once the team of Valverde, Quintana and Landa simultaneously. They attacked descents, climbs, did unexpected things, started the Soler memes. Now they're the team of Enric Mas.

What's the story on Carlos Rodriguez? Did he sign with Movistar or is he staying with Ineos? I thought it was a great attempt by Movistar to sign a big rider.

 

[houtdffan]

WTF was that from Ayuso?

 

[HelloDolly]

this has UAE hari kari written all over it

love it

 

[Savant12]

The worst set-up for a failed attack ever?

 

[Samamba]

That GPS difference must be wrong right? They're catching riders that were at 2 minutes 3kms back.

 

[ice&fire]

Enric Mas will always lend a hand to a Jumbo leader dropped in the mountains

 

[Tim Cahill]

Mas closing it down for Kuss, what is he doing, you have to team up to beat these guys.

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Sepp looks bored with this near standstill pace, Ayuso trying something though

 

[iBanesto]

Ayuso...

The innocence of youth with that surge.

 

[RobertCrawley]

The worst set-up for a failed attack ever?

I'm glad they are trying. Otherwise, it's just a training ride for JV.

 

[Lequack]

Jumbo riders are so bored they will chase anyone at this point.

 

[HelloDolly]

wouldnt they let Landa eat ?

He needs it for the finale

 

[IndianCyclist]

First Remco lost his mind and now UAE-Ayuso.
