It is actually not Kreuziger. I think it's Kiserlovski.

[Rollthedice]

[Taxus4a]

It is kiserlowki how is working for Contador. but contador iss not happy with the situation, as logical...Visconti should work again, and now I ee he do. they cant let Landa get more time.

Re: Re:

Why have they let Landa go

Contador and Quintana each have a teammate, so they're just gonna work on the front until the last climb. Of course Landa has a teammate too so it's Visconti & Kreuziger vs. Lopez. Good position for Sky, but not a bad position for Tinkoff and Movistar.

Still, Tour of Flanders is a lesson in why it's good to go with the moves rather than trust your teammates to keep it close. But it's not just about the day here - Landa will probably lose time in the TT so if they give him 30-40 seconds it's not the end of the world, even if they don't pull it back today.

I doubt Landa will lose that much time in the TT...

It's a hilly TT, not an uphill TT. I mean, I don't know what kind of Skyvoodoomagicsportsscience has happened in the winter, but normally Landa would lose a minute on the non-uphill parts of that TT.

Yeah, but we can agree that he hasn't been what they wanted him to be..

Yeah, so stupid that they let him go like that

 

[Taxus4a]

I would rather say he tried to be useful there

They didn't use him all that much either

They are, like, right behind him.

 

[Matteo.]

Visconti and Kiserlovki are doing a big effort

Ah, I see. Yeah it's a gamble to let Landa go but a small one. He got given some leash on the stage that he won, and then he got dropped on two climbs on the next climbing day. And he's normally a horrible TTer. So I'm not convinced he's a threat, much as I like him.

 

[rune1107]

Kiserlovski done.
