Nibali is alpha as hell. That podium girl spurning has motivated him, he is riding with a fire in his belly.

Was that him or just a teammate? I thought he escaped, pretty good job too by the looks

e: VVV the guy went down, Nibs was able to get away

He only got held up for a second. Teammate in front of him went down and it looks like he just skirted it.

TV commentators saying that the tour might not return here for quite some time. But I'm certain the rain is more of a problem than the cobbles, since most people fell before the first section had appeared.

It is a shame, the damage was done before the cobbles tbh.

I see Cancelarra sitting on Nibali's wheel in the leading group. Bet he attacks on the last section of cobbles.
