[maltiv]

Froome again. Wow.

 

[Ferminal]

Wow, Etna all over again for Boots?

 

[canyonball]

Scarponi! Hang on.

 

[Moondance]

Froome doing yeoman's work.

 

[on3m@n@rmy]

He's paying for yesterday's effort...

Yeah, wondering if that would happen

 

[luckyboy]

lol Scarponi

 

[zapata]

Come on, Nibali! Won't be a big gap, but hope he can at least get the stage.

 

[salixcycling]

Froome closing every so slightly on Nibali!

 

[Greenflame]

Froome is great

Scarponi dropping!

 

[hatcher]

Think Froome is doing enough to earn a contract for next year.

 

[Gingerale]

a cousin dropped...

shark attack

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Now I don't want to hear anyone say Nibali never attacks ever again

Il Squalo - the shark - is nibali's nick name - but that's due to the way
he rides back up to the front rather than because he attacks.

 

[Moondance]

Wind is absolutely punishing.

EDIT: PURITOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

 

[Zoncolan]

Wow, Nibali is looking really good.

 

[cocteau_ireland]

Too windy,no?

 

[Fetisoff]

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Rodriguez and Nieve gone too.

 

[icefire]

Crosswind splits in a cat1 climb?

 

[Waterloo Sunrise]

****ing EPIC

 

[zapata]

Froome dropping Rodriguez.

 

[spalco]

Looks almost like the wind is affecting the riders worse than the climb.

 

[Mellow Velo]

Purito pops!
Crosswinds at 10%!

 

[luckyboy]

Haha this is great

 

[canyonball]

Rodriguez dropped, Nieve dropped. Wiggins doing fine. Wind is turning this around.

 

[superconfex]

Great stage
