Stage 8 is a 45km rolling TT probably the last decisive stage

The big favourites are Rogers, Zabriskie and Dekker

I am backing Abal as he has looked good so far and is a fairly strong time trialist

Ford is an early starter and he sets the fastest time at the first check 11'41


His time there is beaten by team mate Van Winden who gets 11'33


At the second check Ford goes top again in 43'39"


Ford finishes 1st in 1h03'45"


Van winden beats Ford by 1 second at the second check as he closes on his 4 minute man


Barth goes 1st at the second check in 43'26" which is a nice surprise as I was getting bored of La Gazzetta screen shots

Van Winden falls short of Fords time at the finish

Kittel goes top at check 2, 11" faster than his team mate


Who takes 1st at the finish 3 seconds ahead of Ford


Kittel goes first at the end in 1h03'14"


Meier takes the lead at the first check in 11'28"

however he fades badly in the second half

La Gazzetta is back on top when Postuma goes through the first check fastest by 15 sseconds

and then the second check as well 30 seconds quicker than Kittel

Postuma is the first rider under 63 minutes when he comes in at 1h02@30"


There are no challengers for ages until Popovych starts,

however he comes in 11th at the first check and never threatens the lead

Zabriskie starts just before Rogers and needs to make up 6 seconds to overtake him. They should battle it out for the stage, as well probably working their way into the top 10

Zabriskie goes through the first check 2 seconds ahead of Postuma


and Rogers gets the exact same time, wow the drama is not going to let up here


Abal goes through 4th +15 seconds on Zabriskie


Zubedia is 28 seconds back


Rodriguez Oliver comes in the same time as Zubeldia


Sinkewitz is 35 back


Mercado is 33 seconds behind Zabriskie


Kloden loses 25 seconds


Castano is 5th +16"


Spilak goes 4th 11 behind


Perez Sanchez loses 20 seconds


While Dekker is already 9 back, he is unlikely to win the stage now


The top ten is as follows:
Dekker
Perez Sanchez +3'17"
Spilak +3'21"
Castano +3'36"
Kloden +4'50"
Mercado +5'24"
Rodriguez Oliver +5'39" +1
Sinkewitz +5'43" -1
Zubeldia +5'45"
Abal +5'46"
Rogers +6'22"
Zabriskie +6'29"

so only one change so far but it is getting seriously tight

Zabriskie takes 56 seconds of Postuma at the second check


Rogers goes through as he is catching his 4 minute man

but he is slower, losing 3 seconds to Zabriskie

Abal goes through 1'08" behind in 5th place


Zubeldia is way back +2'15"


Rodriguez Oliver is even slower +2'30"


Sinkewitz is 2'59" behind, barely in the top 60


Mercado through check two in 49th +2'36"


At the finish line Zabriskie crosses 1'24" faster than anyone else in 1h01'05"


Kloden goes through check 2 22nd +1'57"


Rogers sprints for the line

and he has decended faster than Zabriskie, unfortunately not by enough and he falls 2 seconds short. Although that is enough to stay ahead in the GC

Castano is next through the second check, +1'30"


Spilak +1'16"


Perez Sanchez goes through +1'41"


while Dekker has been completely out classed by the true 'men against the clock' coming though 5th 1'06" back


The top ten (plus again Rogers and Dave Z) is now as follows after the second check

1. Dekker +1'06"
2. Spilak + 4'35" +1
3. Perez Sanchez +4'47" -1
4. Castano +4'59"
5.Kloden +6'22"
6.Rogers +6'25" +5
7.Zabriskie +6'29" +5
8.Abal +6'38" +2
9. Mercado +7'27" -3
10. Zubeldia +7'32" -1
11. Rodriguez Oliver +7'41" -3
12. Sinkewitz +8'07" -5

So there are still many questions to be answer, can Kloden hang on to 5th?
can Castano gain enough to get on the podium?

who will claim 9th? Zubeldia or Mercado?

Not long till we find out

Currently we have
Rogers in first +6'24"
2nd is Zabriskie + 6'29"
3rd Perriero Sio +8'41"
4th Kohl +9'18"
5th Perez Cuapio +9'33"

Abal comes in and moves into 3rd at +7'07


Zubeldia is next and is 4th +8'32", holding off Perriero Sio by onlly 9 seconds


Rodriguez Oliver is +8'53" so is in 6th currently


Sintewitz is way down, out of the top 60 and hence goes to bottom of our list


Mercado comes in 3'49" behind and so is 8'40" and 5th overall


Kloden is 19th on the day +2'53" meaning he is +7'18" and is 4th overall currently, however all those three positions were lost in the final segment


Castano is 11th today and comes in 2'19" behind Zabriskie, placing him as highest finisher in +5'48"


Spilak is next, 6th gives him +5'21" and he takes top spot


Perez Sanchez needs to beat 2'42" for a porium

and he does so, coming in +2'31" to sit in second

however he won't keep that as Dekker cruises in, finishing 6th on the day, but he has surely secured victory
