Vuelta stage 9
Is anyone going to miss out today? Tricky climb at the end, with a flat bit for the last km which should suit Valverde and J-Rod.
Are there a few penalty points to be considered here amongst the road.cc top teams?

No problems, thank you.
I think the score for Anacona is wrong? 35 for stage win, 3pts for second on cat 2, 4 points for second in mountains and 7 points for 4th in GC which makes 49 I think, rather than the 45 scored?
My bad, apologies, will re-update later, once ive done Plouay
Im not worried, I won't be anywhere near come the end, it was just nice whilst it lasted
I wouldn't worry about those, they are being cut by Dave if enrique doesn't do it himself. There is no excuse for 229 teams TER.
Not a great day. TER must be laughing.
Ive lost my lead....
guess who to, oh and Ive dropped from 1st to 6th, wonder how i dropped so far
Crap
Went with :-
Froome
Valverde
Chaves
Navarro
Aru
Mas
Mondory
Gatto
Reynes
10 point pen so not too bad......
Have a feeling it's going to be a low scoring stage.
Too drunk when I did my transfers, was totally intending to bring in anacona, but it appears I forgot and inexplicably picked ellisonde instead. Gutted!
Oops

Break of 27 and a break of 16 ahead of the peloton. Anacona in the first group so the peloton should keep it reasonably tight as he's only 2'50" back.
There seems to have been a big break, but not having much luck finding out who is in it

Johan Esteban Chaves (OGE)
Merhawi Kudus (MTQ)
Daniil Fominykh (AST)
