Must suck for Cadel coming third in the stage and losing that much time and the pink... Pretty decent performance from him and he gets spanked like that.

Yeah, Im not entirely sure what to make of that. On the face of it it looks like cuddles is in ok form, but you know, old, and not going to keep up when things hit the mountains (which has always kind of been my default position), which would have seemed to fit if he had of finished IDK 15th or something. But he still had a pretty good ITT coming 3rd and extending his lead over everyone that matters EXCEPT Uran. So maybe it was more a case of Uran riding out of his skin(suit) and just plain putting in a balltearer of a TT? I still say Cadel is hosed though. I expected him to pad his lead a bit today, maybe have 1:30 on Uran and 2:00ish on Quintana, and then slowly lose it when the big climbs start but hopefully hold on. I cant see him getting time back from Uran barring problems. Edit: Oh, and gently caress Farrah. Hes a mug.

That's what I think. 2nd on down was pretty close but Uran Uran was in another league today. He usually has one bad day though, I definitely don't think it's out of the realm of possibility for Cuddles to come back. We also haven't seen yet the quality of team that OPQS has brought to control the race.

Quintana is on antibiotics and things look pretty grim. I think Uran^2 timed his peak perfectly for the last week. Cuddles is going to have to do something extraordinary to pull this off, with a double ascent of zoncolan I can't see it happening.

If they can form some kind of alliance against Uran and if they are willing to risk their current ranking for a chance to win, then this giro is still quite open. That's a pretty big If considering how defensively everyone ride those days. Hopefully they will try something as soon as this week end, even if they just gain a few sec over Uran, it will be good for moral in the third week.

I love a good peloton gently caress up. Very nice sprint by Canola, too. To be honest I'm enjoying this Giro a lot.

FDJ did most of the work to chase the break but then had nothing left in the last 15km. Powerful sprint by Canola.

Unsurprisingly, Canola excels in slippery conditions. That was a looong sprint.

Yes, cyclinghub has been deleted for copyright and cyclinghubHD has to delete all the giro related videos. The guy behind those channels explained what happen on reddit. The owner of the Giro aren't kidding with this, Cosmo Catalano, author of "How the race was won" has his giro videos blocked, The few things allowed on youtube are the giro official channel with short highlight of each stage, they are a bit slow to upload them though. Stage 13 Highlight and the Orica Greenedge channel. Vimeo and dailymotion may have more or else cyclingtorrents.nl

I think it's a first for him , Catalano's videos have less than a minute of footage per stage, one guy joked that's how he will have to do it from now : How the race was drawn. Today could be interesting for GC, first climb in a few kms.

Uran and Evans limited their loss, they come back strong at the end but show it's far from over, it's promising for tomorrow and the the next stages.

The marshal is in induced coma according to Gazzetta dello sport.Gazzetta posted:Č stato sottoposto a TAC all’encefalo che ha dimostrato la presenza di piccole lesioni emorragiche diffuse del tessuto nervoso, in assenza di fratture craniche.

He was looking in pain yesterday and was dropped from pink jersey group at some point but he came back very strong in the end and was in front of Uran.

She went out of coma the 6th may, she has trouble speaking but could move ok, she was allowed home a few days later, no news since then. Today last (and only) climb : Inner Ring favourites :

It was boring until 5km to go but after that it was intense, well done Aru, he was the strongest today. Third week will be fun to watch.

Tuesday is going to be good. Didn't the Gavia/Stelvio stage get cancelled last year? I don't think Uran Uran can make it in pink. There are too many people sniffing at the top five places and the attacks will be coming from all sides.

Paddyb posted:Tuesday is going to be good. Didn't the Gavia/Stelvio stage get cancelled last year? Yeah there isnt just one clear challenger, theres 4-5 (6 if Rolland can nick a couple minutes one day) and he has to chase down every one of them. I dont think OPQ are a strong enough team to do that.
