Millar has said that this is his stage. I think he's being optimistic to say the least

Now that is annoying, i wanted Ignatiev to win, or actually do something this Giro. Maybe he's saving himself for the Vuelta...
Geraint Thomas has done alright for himself, currently 5th, though he won't be there for too long i feel.

Not this stage, i know he was aiming for this, as was Oleg Tinkoff. But the rest of the Giro. He didn't do half what he did last year. Only the one really long break, and he only tried one other time that i know of.

Talking about Tinkoff..they have been much smarter at this year Giro...and also got awarded.
One negative thing also Petrov has been weaker then expected. |

Wasn't stage 10 meant to be his stage? Thats what his directeur sportif said before the race. Typical Millar, didn't really have the motivation after some bad luck |

To quote an interview:
Which stage are you looking forward to?
David Millar - "The Milan time trial. It's mine, I want that one."

Well, at least he'll try today.
If he wins today then Great Britain will have won 1/7th of all the stages
Good times |

Oh. I hope he forgives himself. Maybe it'll be Millar time at the Tour. |

I have to agree i think... as much as i liked their breakaways last year, they have definately moved up in the world of cycling and have become a more reknown cycling team. Therefore they have to ride using their brains a bit more. Though i am also massively disapointed with Evgeni's performance. Just shocking.

Van den broeck on the other hand is sloooooow...
this is all relative though. VDB is still faster than Pozzovivo |

Larsson is also very slow and Di Luca is slower than Pozzovivo |
