Project 1T4i - Bye, bye!
Pellizotti2
Thanks once again for the support. Smile

@ MitchNL - Nah, I don't really like the new jersey, so I think I'll stick with the Project. Wink

@ Alfster - Thanks a lot! My motivation gets a boost from such nice words. Smile

@ Neillster - Obv a little bit, but it's hard to battle against nationality bonus. Wink

Actual winner Alberto Contador has been removed from the results due to his suspension. Therefore, GC runner-up, Samuel Sánchez receives the overall glory instead. The two Spaniards were in an own league, dominating the race completely. Geniez won the last stage, atop the mighty La Toussuire.

The route:

The week's big highlight will obviously be the mountain top finish on Mont Ventoux. Also the penultimate stage finishing in Valloire, after climbing Col de la Télégraphe, will be very interesting to watch. Noteworthy is the fact that not a single stage is a pure mass sprint one. They're all pretty hilly. Could be cool.

Project squad:

i1108.photobucket.com/albums/h416/vNibali/project/cdd_09.png

Coppel hits the start in Grenoble dreaming about repeating his amazing performance from Paris-Nice. He's not in top shape at the start, but that'll change in just a day or two. The goal will be a Top 10, but we believe that a Top 5 is possible. The rest of the squad lacks the last bit of form, so it's breaks for them.

With a long time trial featuring in the race, Andreas Klöden, Denis Menchov and Bradley Wiggins has to be seen as the three big favourites. They'll surely profit from their strength against the clock, just like Coppel. We should also watch out for Sivtsov, if he still has a bit of his Giro form.

Looking forward to see what is Coppel doing in this race. Top 10, perhaps..
 
Neillster
@ Neillster - Obv a little bit, but it's hard to battle against nationality bonus. Wink

No, what I meant was that you shouldn't feel too disappointed, because at the beginning of the race you would definitely taken 3rd place, which in a GT is nothing to be sniffed at Wink
Anyway, all the best in your preparations for le TourWink

lluuiiggii
Must feel nice to be playing your own variant Smile Not only because it's yours, but also because you know beforehand that the stages are of amazing quality Wink

Good luck with Coppel, if his form indeed goes up during the race a Top 5 should be definitely manageable (especially since it's you playing Pfft)
 
Pellizotti2
@ hazzy - I sincerely hope so. Otherwise it's a big disappointment.

@ Neillster - Don't worry, I understood what you meant. We're not racing the Tour however. Wink

@ luigi - Yeah, I thought I'd give it a shot. I rarely use my own stages otherwise, but a little change can't hurt. Smile

And thanks a lot for the nice words!

i1108.photobucket.com/albums/h416/vNibali/project/cdd_01.png

We kick off with this short prologue in Grenoble. There's just five kilometers of course, but we hope to gain at least a few seconds on some other GC contenders here, thanks to Coppel's strength against the clock.

i1108.photobucket.com/albums/h416/vNibali/project/cdd_10.jpg

It turned out to be an okay start, knowing that Coppel's shape isn't on top yet. Just outside the Top 10 at the end of the day, eight seconds slower than the surprising winner, Tom Dumoulin. Martin missed out!

i1108.photobucket.com/albums/h416/vNibali/project/cdd_02.png

Day number two will be a hard one to predict. It's set to be a flat one, but it's far from sure that all the sprinters survive the hills in the final part of the stage. Possibly a great opportunity for a breakaway.

i1108.photobucket.com/albums/h416/vNibali/project/cdd_11.jpg

Jérôme Pineau punched away from the main field up the slopes of the last categorized climb, and soon bridged across to the early breakaway. Sprick, who had been in there all day, tried to follow, and almost succeeded, but had to let go on the last few meters of uphill.

i1108.photobucket.com/albums/h416/vNibali/project/cdd_12.jpg

That was a shame, because Pineau went on to win the stage in a fashionable way. The main field seemed to have gotten caught off guard by this attack, allowing him just a bit too large gap. The Frenchman seizes yellow.

i1108.photobucket.com/albums/h416/vNibali/project/cdd_13.jpg

J.J. Rojas and Matthew Goss shot clear of the rest in the battle for second. The Aussie was the quicker of the two, edging out Mr. Eternal Second for second place. Coppel finished safely inside the pack.

pcmdaily.com/images/flags/FR.png Stage 3 - Saint-Paul-en-Jarez > Saint-Étienne pcmdaily.com/images/flags/FR.png

i1108.photobucket.com/albums/h416/vNibali/project/cdd_03.png

The first decisive day of racing. I promise you, the profile makes it look much easier than it really is. We do however need to remember that it ends with a long downhill, which will most likely prevent all solo attempts.

i1108.photobucket.com/albums/h416/vNibali/project/cdd_14.jpg

Sprick, today in the KoM jersey, again joined the early breakaway to defend his colours. Unfortunately, Jure Kocjan was also interested in the points, and managed to steal most of them from us. At least we kept the jersey.

i1108.photobucket.com/albums/h416/vNibali/project/cdd_15.jpg

A small GC battle on the last bits of uphill brought the escapee trio back. When the tempo then dropped significally in the downhill to the finish, Posthuma threw all his cards on the table and went for it.

i1108.photobucket.com/albums/h416/vNibali/project/cdd_16.jpg

It almost succeeded, but he was eventually brought back under the Flamme Rouge, by the peloton led by Iuri Trofimov and Jan Bakelants.

i1108.photobucket.com/albums/h416/vNibali/project/cdd_17.jpg

Bakelants held on to win the stage ahead of a very strong Kocjan, who came out of nowhere, and Alexander Efimkin. Coppel stayed calm inside the group once again, staying high up in GC.

pcmdaily.com/images/flags/FR.png Stage 4 - Anneyron pcmdaily.com/images/flags/FR.png

i1108.photobucket.com/albums/h416/vNibali/project/cdd_04.png

Last stage included in this first part of the Dauphiné report will be this long time trial in Anneyron. It's Coppel's big chance to gain time on his rivals before we hit the big climbs. It's a long way, so there might be big differences.

i1108.photobucket.com/albums/h416/vNibali/project/cdd_18.jpg

After a disappointing start of the race, Tony Martin returned to the top at least a little bit here. Still not the kind of domination we're used to see him demonstrating. Best time so far at least, but with many riders to go.
56'03


i1108.photobucket.com/albums/h416/vNibali/project/cdd_19.jpg

Posthuma pulled off a fantastic ride out on the course, and came quite close to topping Martin's time. Provisional second place, a few seconds slower than the German OPQS rider.
56'11


i1108.photobucket.com/albums/h416/vNibali/project/cdd_21.jpg

Coppel however, managed to top both Martin's and Posthuma's times! Not by much though, and still a couple of strong time triallists to go, but either way a great performance.
56'01


i1108.photobucket.com/albums/h416/vNibali/project/cdd_20.jpg

It actually looked like Coppel had pulled this one off at first, but we were soon proved wrong. Russian time trial champion Denis Menchov with the new best time, 14 seconds faster! He's clearly building up form for the Tour.
55'47


i1108.photobucket.com/albums/h416/vNibali/project/cdd_22.jpg

Not even the yellow jersey of David Millar, a former world time trial champion could do anything against Menchov's amazing time. The Briton disappointed heavily, missing the Top 10 today.
56'52

pcmdaily.com/images/flags/FR.png Stage 5 - Hauterives > Mont Ventoux pcmdaily.com/images/flags/FR.png

i1108.photobucket.com/albums/h416/vNibali/project/cdd_05.png

If you ask me, then this is the queen stage. Sure, it's all about the final climb to Mont Ventoux, but the Valloire stage isn't even a mountain top finish. We expect some serious selection today, up the windy slopes of Ventoux.

i1108.photobucket.com/albums/h416/vNibali/project/cdd_23.jpg

Team Sky did all the work today, apparently expecting a lot from this very hard day. Notable was the fact that both Joaquim Rodriguez (82 MO) and Sergio Henao (81) both took a large amount of turns at the front.

i1108.photobucket.com/albums/h416/vNibali/project/cdd_24.jpg

The two mentioned shattered the group completely already in the very beginning of the climb. Apparently for Kanstantsin Sivtsov. Frank Schleck made the day's first serious jump quite early, hurting everyone.

i1108.photobucket.com/albums/h416/vNibali/project/cdd_25.jpg

Coppel (+5) soon took control over the group, to decide himself what pace is okay and what's a bit too hard. This blew the group apart once again, and only Menchov, Sivtsov, Betancur, Sörensen and Gadret could follow.

i1108.photobucket.com/albums/h416/vNibali/project/cdd_26.jpg

Sivtsov kicked again with two kilometers to the line, pushing everyone over their limit. Coppel tried to stay calm, while the yellow jersey of Menchov appeared to be in difficulty near the back end.

i1108.photobucket.com/albums/h416/vNibali/project/cdd_27.jpg

The Russian was apparently faking his weakness however, as he found another gear inside the final kilometer to set off after Sivtsov. Coppel continued to focus on his own riding, trying to stay in third.

i1108.photobucket.com/albums/h416/vNibali/project/cdd_28.png

It seemed like everyone was completely dead in the finale, since everyone kept their position all the way to the line. Sivtsov took the stage win just ahead of Menchov, and then a small gap back to Coppel.

i1108.photobucket.com/albums/h416/vNibali/project/cdd_06.png

Another pretty challenging finish, with the climb of Col du Corobin just a few kilometers before the finish. A downhill leads down to the line, which will once again most likely sew things back together after the top.

i1108.photobucket.com/albums/h416/vNibali/project/cdd_29.jpg

The early breakaway built up a huge advantage and was therefore never seen again on the day. On the Corobin climb, Enrico Gasparotto got rid of everyone but José Joaquin Rojas, forming a leading duo at the top.

i1108.photobucket.com/albums/h416/vNibali/project/cdd_30.jpg

The two of them fended off the chase behind to battle it out for the win themselves. Rojas, a far superior sprinter, profited from his speed to pick up an easy victory ahead of Gasparotto. The favourites stayed together.

pcmdaily.com/images/flags/FR.png Stage 7 - Gap > Valloire pcmdaily.com/images/flags/FR.png

i1108.photobucket.com/albums/h416/vNibali/project/cdd_07.png

Together with Ventoux, this is the stage where the overall is expected to be decided. The last climb up to Col du Télégraphe will surely reduce the main field a lot, and we'll most likely see a small group battling it out for the win.

i1108.photobucket.com/albums/h416/vNibali/project/cdd_31.jpg

The Télégraphe climb turned out to be a big anticlimax, but an acceleration from Sivtsov near the top of the climb put race leader Menchov in big trouble. He did stay in just about contact however.

i1108.photobucket.com/albums/h416/vNibali/project/cdd_32.jpg

Sivtsov launched another little attack with a kilometer and a half to go, and that allowed him just about enough of a gap to stay clear for the victory. Coppel gunned out Tejay Van Garderen for second.

Just like stage three, this one looks a lot easier than it actually is because the stage is very short. The last climb is very hard, with sections at over 10%. Therefore this is set as a mountainous day, so expect attacks.

Surprisingly, it was Menchov who made the first jump on the final climb. Already in the very beginning of it too, when the domestiques were still doing the work. We decided to stay cool and go after him later if needed.

The attacks then succeeded each other, with Sivtsov being the most active one. At the top a group of eight formed at the front. Coppel made the cut with ease, after taking on the climb Sastre-style.

Another small group came back in the finale, and Joaquim Rodriguez jumped straight over this group into a solo lead. The others seemed to want Coppel to do the work, but we refused to.

Therefore Rodriguez was able to maintain his advantage all the way to the line, where he could celebrate victory after timing his attack to perfection. Menchov and Klöden swepped up the other time bonuses.

This is so awesome. This whole story actually inspired me to start with a small team, instead of a big one. Keep up the great results!
