Sella's ownage!B)
If i wasn't too lazy i would go back some few pages and quote my reply that says Sella would win every mountain top finish, because he is 3 for 3. And 47 seconds to Cunego is already awesome but probably not enough for the TT.
mrlol, fear

Carrara is really surprising me, looks really good for a top 10 
also 2nd in the points but I doubt he'l be able to get any closer.

Seems like my post from yesterday didn't get through, so let's try again: It's great to see that there's some excitement in this Giro. It's the end of Cunego-dominance. Also, a stage win for Petacchi and podium for Pozzovivo -- not bad at all for me. |

this really is turning out a terrible Giro for me... my 3 best riders after Cunego injured and Cunego is attacking too late every stage and doesnt catch up with Sella... I think Sella's got it... He'll have one more mountaintop finish to gain more time, and the TT is too short... the other stages end downhill so I dont really expect gaps between cunego and sella there... |

Well, had you expected total dominance I can understand why one's disappointed when you're close at losing |

I didnt expected total dominance, of course I knew Sella would do good in the mountains. but the injuries suck... |

Think about it this way: Be happy that Cunego wasn't injured.

Definately agree!!! Looking at the GC Caruso should've been top 8 easily |

Ricco has to take some more CERA to reach the top3, which is not impossible 
what about the tour of cataluna, the calendar says that it should've been start it already...

Impatience seems rife amongst some managers. Maybe next year there should be penalties against being so uppity! (like removing their budget and giving it to me )

Well if it were up to me, unnecessary impatience would be punished by something, but Crommy probably wount allow it

to be fair, magenta only asked if a race witch, if i remember correctly, should have started during the giro, was going to start. and if i remember correctly it was written somewhere that the races were going to be raced in the right order. |

Agree with helGn... Magenta didn't demand the race to be done, merely did he ask when the race would start, since it, on calender SHOULD have started. Not that he WANTED it to start. It was a question towards your own statement, that you would follow the race calender! |

While its true that if, for example, mrlol had made that post, we wouldnt have made any remarks at all (And may even have answered the question). But it is the fact that Magenta ia almost always asking or complaining about when the next race or stage will be posted.
Besides, as Crommy is also doing Cataluna, it will most likely be saved until after the Giro - with them being CustomTours, they all use the same jerseys file, so instead of constantly changing that file between the Giro and Cataluna jerseys, it is easier just to finish the Giro and then do Cataluna.

A warning - the next stage is epic
I took just under a 100 screenshots for it, when generally, I take no more than 20.
