Yes, Wiggins fell. Before that, he already dropped from the peloton.

it's not a highlight,it's a re-re-highlight
wiggins being a re-re-asshole
why the staff from sky are so morrons?
froome loosed vuelta because of wiggins
froome loosed le tour because of wiggins
froome will regret loosing that 2 big tours because he was wiggins slave
henao and uran coulded finish with nibali group and uran coulded been the leader in giro
wiggins anyway in the tommorow itt will take 2 min from nibali and will comeback in top 5 or top 3
hope he sink in every montain stage and quit giro and not return for le tour because it will ruin froome chances again
sky team it's maded by wiggins and his slaves
this thing is much worse then doping |

I think the joke about the Blanco riders crashing should be over now. Let's call it a Sella, or a Wiggins, or a Nibali, or a Movistar, or a..... you get the point.
With dry roads tomorrow, Wiggins can get back in the top 10 again, and all is open. But my bet is at Nibali, with Gesink at the podium.

That makes little sense. The whole point of the Blanco / Rabo crash jokes is that they've been notoriously falling for years. Unlike any of the riders / teams you've named.
The only fair new name would be "an Euskaltel".

I know, I know.... Although a Sella should be doable as well, after today

Poor stage for Wiggins there, little bit of misfortune and showing yet more weakness. Really exciting stage though from the highlights - wonderful win for Adam Hansen.
I don't know whether though it is terminal for him and the devil team incarnate. We're getting a lot of people banging that old record about Froome being held back at the Vuelta and the Tour and now it's Uran and Henao. Doing exactly what teammates should be doing if you ask me. That TT is a very long one tomorrow, the whole GC situation is going to change dramatically.
Anyway all this talk about Wiggins, bar him it is really really tight on GC. Santambrogio, Nibali, Hesjedal, Intxausti, Evans, Gesink, Sanchez they are all there. We've got plenty of fantastic racing to come. I think that stage will be Giro special we get every year - now its TT and mountains time.

How much time do we anticipate Wiggins gaining on Nibali, Hesjedal et al tomorrow? A minute? Minute and a half? And who's likely to do come off best amongst the main GC contenders tomorrow (apart from Wiggins ofc)?

Maybe even more than 2 minutes, I fear.
And this is not me being biased, but I can see Gesink & Evans doing fine tomorrow, maybe better than Nibbles and Hesjedal.

Gesink, Nibali, Sánchez, Evans, Intxausti and of course Wiggins, who in his current shape won't be able to perform like he did last season, can all ride a decent time trial. Not sure about Santambrogio though.

Santambrogio is a bad time-trialist, I fear.

Tour de France, last year, 38km ITT : Wiggins <-- 2:07 -->Nibali
Dauphiné, last year, 53,5km ITT: Wiggins <-- 3:30 --> Nibali
So yeah, we may as well expect around/over 3 minutes.

Well, in Dauphiné Wiggins was probably in better form than here and he probably didn't have a fall and that much bad weather already in his legs. |

Dauphiné, last year, 53,5km ITT: Wiggins <-- Just 1:25 --> Kelderman(4th)
Sorry, just had to
But don't forget that this is a hilly ITT, with some downhills as well, I suppose. Nibbles won't lose 3:30, I think.
