Wow, what an unexpected victory! I don't complain though. 
But I really doubt he'll be able to hold a top spot in the GC. I reckon he'll lose a lot on the mountain.

Good win, now all we have to do is defend Haedo's GC lead on the mountain top finish.

Feels like my luck is also coming to an end. First Taiwan, now this. At least it was a nice try from Rovira. |

At least Dall'Antonia got third on the stage. Something positive.
But it's still a bad stage for us, as both Santambrogio and Osella lost time. Well, well, we weren't the only ones.

Ah well I wasn't in the GC run anyway and this way my guys might be a bit more aggressive.
And roturn the reports are great but could you please make it a bit more clear when attacks are brought back in, like with the final attacks of the stage this time, I didn't realise they had been brought back in and got a bit confused. Just a small thing. Like I said, the reports are great

What a stage! Many riders are out of the competition I guess now, including Team WWE rider CA Sørensen. At least Txurruka is in a good position for now.

No ... Anton is two for two this season crashing on flat stages. If this continues Its going to be a long season.

Happy that Lövkvist was on the right side of that crash, now let the fun begin! |

Duarte out. Still have Pellizotti, though.
And a typical 2nd place from Marinangeli.

It's quite the other way around here, Castaños hope for a podium is surely possible now with so many contenders suffering from all those crashes!
- Good thing that the team didn't use much energy either, since I fear the mountain stage will be very hard to control with so many good riders suffering time losses today.

Voeckler doing what he does best, being in a break. Hopefully he keeps that up.
Did you see if Txurruka worked for Sørensen today? Looking at the end result, it seems like he did. Horrible riding, to say the least.. But a top ten is still in reach, I think. Will be hard, but it's not impossible.

If Ratiy hadn't been caught behind at the first stage Bah, atleast Schädlich should be able to win the TT.
This was a well-raced stage by my team, offensive riding

Both of your riders have been in the gapped group during the stage but found their way back. Sörensen did some pace in this group but mainly other teams have done this job.
So Txurruka was the clear leader for your team.  |

I see. Hope he attacks on the last stage and does some magic. And that Voeckler might snatch the KOM jersey here. That would be nice.

Ahhhh ... Roturn you just had to get my hopes up that Anton had a shot at a comeback ... The only possitive thing right now is that Parra Bustamante is holding 7th in GC.

Amazing ride by Salgueiro took the KoM and helped Lövkvist in the finish.
How much can Pellizotti loose against Lövkvist on the TT? |

I was very disappointed to not see us in the breakaway, but Ortega and Larsson kind of made up for that, riding aggressive on the climb. I hope Larsson can secure his "usual" second place in the TT, behind Schädlich |

Rujano finally showed his strenght but still TT and tricky last stage left...
btw isn´t this TT too much hard for pure TTists without climbing skills?
