I cant belive that the results at the Vuelta iffcial Website are still not online yet!!! Maybe they are still thinking about not giving gaps so that Cobo and Contadope doesnt lose time today

Omega Pharma - Quick-Step Sports Director Davide Bramati said. "We had a great time at the check point. At more or less 8 kms to the finish, we entered into a roundabout. The motorbike in front of us took the wrong way — turning left instead of going straight. Tony Martin, who was leading the team at that time, followed the motorbike, it's a question of instinct. We reacted immediately, but we lost Tony and Zdenek Stybar, who were the two first riders. The rest of the guys continued riding even if we lost a lot of time because of it. Everybody had to brake and find the race pace again. We were 3rd at the end. It's a good result, but we could have done better without this problem.
Great Oragnisation again in such an important Race

After looking through the results, I noticed some notable names that got dropped by their team mates. Not really a good start for these.
Tiralongo - 2'47
Geniez - 3'18
Jeannesson - 3'24

Incredible. Tony Martin's bad luck seems to never run out this year. |

is that the reason that, somewhere around midnight, Rabobank was placed 3rd and OPQS 2nd, both at +10"? |
