Eneco stage 5


simon F, August 10, 2012

Non-starters today

VAN GOOLEN Jurgen (ACC) DNS Stage 5
DEGENKOLB John (ARG) DNS Stage 5

And a Q&A from Kittel

What do you think about today's profile? "Profile? There's no profile, we will sprint today!"

Ive gone for the same team as yesterday....another stage win? or will i flop and fail

Degenkolb resting up for the Vuelta? I spent this morning picking my teams for San Sebastian, Vuelta and USA - great fun. Still not decided which 4 guys to bring in for tomorrow...

Think Roelandts pipped Nizzolo on the line. Oop - nope, other way round.

Then Belletti, an FDJ (probably Demare), Boonen and I think Kristoff.

So 1,4,5,6 and 8 so far, doubt it will be the stage win today though but should still be decent

Haussler looked like 12th-ish. Nizzo seemed like a nice young man in his interview - well done him.
