    I wouldn’t be that hard pressed to be honest, they did 600 metres downhill đŸ‘¿

    The results of the enquiry
    The results of the enquiry are as follows:

    The AnglirĂº is classified by the race organisers as a summit finish, one of six in the Vuelta. The points for the final climb are the finish line points.

    You’re right Gkam, the stage didn’t finish at the HC point. But the rule that you quoted doesn’t say that it has to; you’d be hard pressed to argue that this wasn’t a ‘mountaintop stage finish’

    The rule exists to stop summit finish stage scores being unduly weighted towards the first few riders. It’s applicable here.

    Right folks, the scores are
    Right folks, the scores are in. However, they dont currently include the points for the HC climb. We’re holding a referee’s enquiry as to whether we count this as a summit finish or not, given that the finish line was 600m after the summit.

    Watch this space for the results of our enquiry and a potential change to the scores…just give us time to meet at our top secret underground scoring facility and stroke our beards for a while. :B

    I dont know who was doing the
    I dont know who was doing the points today, But they aint put the HC points on YET

    The rules say

    “Points awarded for points accrued in the climber’s classification from the day’s stage. Does not include mountaintop stage finishes.”

    Well Stage 15 did not finish on the HC climb, there was .6km downhill, the HC was at 141.6 and the Finish was at 142.2

    Cat.Hors Alto de l’Angliru 141.6 km
    Distance completed: 142.2 km

    So thats not the finish and points should be awarded

    I think only the top 4, Cobo,
    I think only the top 4, Cobo, Froome, Wiggo and Mollema have a chance to win overall now, so it makes some other choices a bit easier

    Got 97 but I lost about 35-40
    Got 97 but I lost about 35-40 points over 2 days by not having Froome. ‘Nnoyed with Nieve but pleased about Poels. 7 out of 9 in top 20. Now it’s back to mountain points and breaks, (after the flat). Glad I’ve got 4 transfers. Going to need them!

    I think this will be the first day I get over 100 points so in that respect it’s good. In the sense that Brad lost the jersey, though, it will be very sad
