Does anyone here understand the time gaps given in the official dinamic profile ticker?

Yes, difference is currently 6h. 39' 50"

Easy.

Looks like the heat is get peloton and nobody wants to work. Another day for the escapers? Looks like it!

No kidding, annoying is an understatement.

I wonder if the heat also effects the selection on the final climb.

 

[cycladianpirate]

I think that 'h' should read 'mins'.

Actually, forget that - it's all over the shop.....

 

[DJ Sprtsch]

It says hours but it means minutes. 7:08 atm. Busche strongest in the break?

Yes, seems to correspond with mins instead of hours now, but for some reason earlier today (and yesterday) it gave some ridiculous numbers like 24h19"40 (and thereabouts)

He didn't attack there, only react.
Mosquera was the one attacking there.

I was responding to when you asked "when has Nibali ever won a mountain stage".

I put forward Bola.

As for when he attacked, again the stage Anton crashed where he went 1 on 1 with Purito.

Just call it Dekker_Tiffosiing.

I hope the break get's caught, that way the GC riders can go for the stage win and GC. It will increase chances of fireworks.

I think the guy operating the graphics is drunk, Its been weird all day starting with them going the opposite direction early on.

Now the question is, can he still read what you say ?


yep, would love to see how the Tour guys do in comparison with Nibbles, Purito, Anton etc..

Oh ok, I wasn't aware of that verb...

Must be the same driver from the TV company that "starred" in the TdF. Looks like they've given him/her a desk job.

I noticed that too but was suffering from a hangover so I thought it was just me

I hope that french cow is languishing in jail and not messing up a ticker.

Gap @ 7.05 now

7.50 according to the updates below the live tracker graphic thing. Looking very good for the break.

Busche v. Rohregger if it stays away? Or is one of the others a good climber?

 

[Zinoviev Letter]

Over 8 minutes. I really hope one of the GC teams gets the finger out very soon.

Bonnafond has been due to make a breaktrough for some time, after being a promessing climber as a amateur, could very well be today

 

[jens_attacks]

another fail.they will let the breakaway win again....that's just wrong

 

[roundabout]

They will need to basically hold the gap until the final climb before we can start talking about likely winners. I can see them losing 6-7 minutes there

 

[spalco]

Today it doesn't matter as much because there should be some fighting between the GC guys regardless of whether the stage win is on the line or not, don't you think?

 

[l.Harm]

Who's the best climber at the front?

 

[TeoSheva]

Who's the best climber at the front?

in theory Busche and Roheregger... but Boonafond and Vorganov can do well as well

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

Who's the best climber at the front?

who is there?
