Worst sprinting field from any WT race I can remember lately ( last one would be last year's Volta  ), but Giani did well here.

Still think it was an irregular sprint from Meersman. |

Nice win for Meersman. Again .
Still, quite an achievement for Maurits Lammertink!

Quite a weak field indeed, but it's great for Meersman to get these two stages  |

Yup. José Azevedo said that it was because of problems in the left knee. |

Tomorrow Sky train vs Movistar train. Will Wiggins crush all life force on earth? Will Valverde somehow hang on and win? Will J-Rod do his patented 'hang on for dear life then attack in final km'-trick? (he doesn't have other tricks..) or will Gesink do his patented -attack with 30 guys in my wheel- and then drop off? |

Gesink will do his trademark "fall off the bike" trick.

Gesink only falls in grand tours where he made his goal off. He barely ever falls apart from that |

In a good or a bad way? 
Anyway, if first, I hope you're right

Last Climb:
Last km is perfect for a Purito attack.

I did and Ruben is wrong indeed, J-Rod usually attacked from 1200metres left, not 1000.
