Today I've got
Joaquin Rodriguez (KAT)
Jose Humberto Rujano (AND)
Roman Kreuziger (AST)
Sergio Luis Henao (SKY)
Stefano Pirazzi (COG)
Miguel Angel Rubiano (AND)
Paolo Tiralongo (AST)
Diego Ulissi (LAM)
Martijn Keizer (VCD)
I did
50 May 22, 16:14 Martijn Keizer Matthias Brandle
50 May 22, 16:14 Stefano Pirazzi Daniel Schorn
After Pirazzi's little "look at me" off the front of the group coming home yesterday, I thought he might have a dig today and hit the break and Keizer has been a little quiet
It looks like Rabottini is just going to be given the blue jersey without much of a fight so I think I'll be ditching Golas permanently tonight. Rubiano too doesn't look interested in the slightest.
C'mon Euskatel, catch Rabottini.
Was that Rujano getting dropped on the Duran?
Yes.
Nooo!
He's ill apparently.
Pirazzi's also been dropped so he won't be doing anything today.
Bah, this stage is going badly wrong already, this is why I don't take risks, they always backfire.
Rabottini takes maximum points, Nieve is 30 seconds down on his group and the peloton a further 49 seconds back.
Liquigas seem have to realised Nieve is only 4 minutes down on GC and are looking to close the gap.
Listen................ Thats the sound of me shaking my head in disgust at my poor risky choices again!!!!
Androni have been dropped which means no Sella in the lead group. Rodriguez and Hesjedal have been isolated and have no teammates with them, Basso and Scarponi have a couple each so descent not withstanding this could be a good day for Basso and a bad one for J-Rod.
I'll be taking some risks in the remaining stages now.
Lead group as they go over the penultimate climb:
Rodriguez
Hesjedal
Basso
Tiralongo
Scarponi
Intxausti
Henao
Cataldo
Casar
Uran
De Gendt
Tschopp
Gadret
Moreno
Cunego
Nieve
Szmyd
Dupont
Caruso
Seeldraeyers
Capecchi
Samoilau
Losada
No Txurruka
that's not the whole group. Pozzovivo is certainly in there.
EDIT: Brambilla too... though the whole thing is being blown apart now.
de Gendt, Gadret, Tiralongo all dropped.
Basso
Scarponi
Uran
Hesjedal
Rodriguez
Pozzovivo
All that's left.
Nooooo! Hesjedal, the man I dropped this morning, has attacked!
Dam! why did i take uran out when he had a bad day the other day what a fail!
Scarponi cramps on the descent!
Well, I've got the top 4 guys on the road... but I'm assuming I'm not alone
Looks like a sprint finish between Basso, Pozzovivo, Hesjedal (who I dropped this morning and who'll probably win it) and Rodriguez...
I hate this game.
I was going to say I can't believe some people dropped Hesjedal, but then I stupidly dropped Pozzovivo so i'm not really in a position to say anything
Loving Uran's hair tho'...
maybe Uran too...
At least gadret is not as far behind as i thought!
Anyway J-rod axed tomorrow for cav, and i can get basso in for friday instead of henao
Rodriguez
Basso
Hesjay
Scarponi
Uran
Poz
I think.
There'll be some BIIGGGGGG scores today.
Rubbish day, I don't have Pozzovivo anymore
Bye bye Astana riders
Sorry, got Scarponi and Uran the wrong way around.
So are Henao and Uran just riding for themselves now?
1,3,6,10,11 and 17 and 18 maybe? 7 in top 20 i Think (all stars, pozz, Tschopp and Tiralongo)
So can the Hes TT?
Cav tomorrow surely
yh Cav tomorrow
Hes and Uran are the best on paper out of the top contenders, Basso 3rd id say. Scarponi has improved, so has J-rod and pozz is the worst
