That doctor was a bit hands on.

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Six off the front.
only at 100m now - the Germans pulling them back,

 

[Ferminal]

Starting to look a bit more promising... then they all sit up.

 

[Hugo Koblet]

Lutsenko:

About the race: ,,It was difficult from the start. I suffered a lot. Our team’s tactic was to control the race and wait. The team did a great job in the last lap. They kept the pack together and me in the front. The Cauberg was very hard though, I lost a lot of positions but managed to get back. Then I just went as fast as humanly possible.”

About the future: ,,I’ve been in great shape all year. Won a stage in the Tour de l’Avenir and a couple of races in Italy. So I was able to sign a contract with the Astana-pro team about a month ago. Next year I’ll try and win my first elite-race. Am I the new Vinokourov? Everything is possible. If I work real hard I think good results as a professional are possible.”

For those of you listening to Eurosport International, do you think that this week Sean Kelly has been on fabulous form. Much more fluent and articulate than before but still as 'spot on' in terms of analysis of what's going on. I wonder if some of his Belg mates are spiking his coffee with Belgian mix. Eurosport's no 1 cycling 'asset'.

Maybe having Rochelle in the commentary box has a bit of an effect on the old boy.

Ha, ha, maybe that's it.

Ohh, err, google is your friend.

This way of showing races without the km bar in the top is getting very old.

 

[spalco]

Is this her?

eta: yes, apparently, but the google image link is nicer.

 

[Tigerion]

Great to see that with no race radio you ban still bring out the whiteboard

 

[Panda Claws]

Yes, it's awful. Does anyone know how long it still is?

 

[Tigerion]

It's around about 35 km to go but that is give or take
