Ongarato is confident celebrating before the finishline with Pauwels so close to him

Yeh, I was willing Pauwels on to try and beat him

contador out!

british super-team time?

Stage 4

Another hilly stage


The action will come on the hill so lets go straight to it. Evans was the first to attack and as others scrambled across to join him, only Menchov and Frank Schleck made the junction as they closed in on the last breakaway rider, ElkHaus's Buffaz


Evans, Schleck and Menchov went over the top and continued to push down the descent


They have a gap over Rogers and Rovira, with a further gap on LL Sanchez, Karpets, Van den Broeck, and Popovych


Evans leads out the sprint - Rovira could be dangerous if he catches the group fast enough


But its definately going to be between the front 3, Evans is 1 sprint stat better than Schleck but Frank has waited as long as he can before making his move


Frank Schleck wins, with Evans 2nd and doing something he couldnt do in the Tour - taking the race lead


Bennati took 10th as he led in the peleton, with Hagen taking 12th - the best he could hope for on a -5 day

Nice second place

Stage 5

The Rettenbachferner always holds a big influence over the Deutschland Tour and it has arrived today


Midway through the stage, Popovych crashed. Astana send their whole team back to help

He will make it back, but only after 30kms of chasing.

So Popovych may be disadvantaged for the big climb as Devolder starts the attacks


Frank Schleck has a little gap over the other attackers


But Karpets closes it. Schleck, Karpets, Evans, Menchov, Devolder and Kvasina are the lead group


Rogers waited before attacking, starting the day just 7 seconds behind Evans he could be a real threat, but he waited too long!


Popovych also waited but he at least was able to keep away from the peleton after his attack, unlike Rogers


2km to the summit, Evans hits the front


He is piling the pressure on the other riders


He has a gap!


Sprinting towards the finish, will Schleck or Karpets be able to catch him?


No they will not. Evans at last takes a win in a ProTour race! He couldnt do it in 2007 for Predictor or 2008 for Rabobank, but he has done it now for DFL.

Stage 6

Flat stage, break caught with 4km to go, Hagen behind Kopp in the sprint


Hagens move past Kopp coincides with that of Forero


And Hagen cant match the Colombian as Forero wins today with Hagen 3rd.

To TTs in a row? WTF?

MILLAR!

you won by 17 min... I think the difficulty needs to be turned up

Extreme is the limit ....

I was joking, mocking the fact that someone posts those comments in every story that isn't at extreme

Of course there is the thing where you can somehow change exactly how hard or easy the levels are in Local.cdb.

Well you didnt have any smileys in your post did you?

Yeah, I don't normally bother with them =) I guess sarcasm is more fun if you don't have to warn people

Lol

Volta a Portugal will be a crazy race this year it seems

Great win by Millar btw

i think i played a major part in millars victory

extreme results sn

Stage 7

A 3 man break went away and most teams seemed happy to let them stay, but not us. First Manan and Coyot and later Ignatiev pegged the gap back from 13 minutes and 110km to go to 5 minutes with 30km to go.


Other teams then took over and the break were caught. There was to be plenty of jostling at the buildup to the sprint


Hagen moved to the right as he looked for space


But instead he found absolutely nowhere to go


With acres of space on the left, Forero charged home to win, with Hagen 3rd

Great team work, pity about getting boxed in though. I always seem to muck up the chase of breaks if it relys on me. Though thats normally because there are 12 riders in those breaks...rather than 3!

Still, good going

Look forward to seeing who else you sign for the super DFL team, and seeing the new DFL mini-maillot on the 2010 team presentation
