Dekker_Tifosi said:They haven't finished yet. Bit of patience
This has been a surprisingly solid showing from Euskaltel-Euskadi, and they look set to set the quickest time at the finish, all of 38 seconds ahead of Rusvelo.

Dekker_Tifosi said:Why suprising? They have one of the strongest starting line ups. Certainly on a course like this. And they have been top 5 in a lot of TTT's this year... or have you forgotten already??

Liquigas have the advantage of Sagan/Nibali there
