I'm started to think this race is staged looking at the results.
Anyway, Breschel hits some of his old form it seems nice to see that. I remeber back in PCM10 where he was quite a beasty rider to have in a team.
Bongirono keeps delivering, Bardiani has some amazing upcoming Italian talents. Barbin, Bongiorno and (Rosa) really caught my eye many times this season.
Also Chad Haga having awesome season so far.

I guess you ()ed Rosa after realising he's at Androni, huh
I knew it, but after I re-read it, the sentance made it look like Rosa was also racing for Bardiani, so why the brackets as you say
Also from Bardiani, how could I forget Sonny Collbrelii, the guy is just pure engine, could be an awesome future rider. Pagani and Locatelli could also be more than average climbers, really nice team and well put together.

Magnus Cort Nielsen seems to got himself another great win. This time from twitter reports he attacked in last km and finished it off in style.
For such a young rider, that's quite a feat. Great national Tour for him.
Bak has 12 seconds over Kelderman before 12km ITT. Could be close, but I fancy Bak taking it, the motivation of winning home tour could prove vital in this case, as well as probably knowing the route inside out.

12 seconds? It was 10 after stage 3 and Kelderman finished in front of Bak as far as I can see on stage 4.
Or did Bak take some bonification seconds?

He did have the form and background as ITT specialist last year aswell. And an even better GC position before the TT
Edited by Spilak23 on 03-08-2013 13:02
That doesn't necassarily mean he's bad at it(some of these are last year before his breakthrough), but it's not his best distance. Nevertheless, at least a 2nd place on the GC should be possible, GC win if having a good day.
Edit: Anyone has some starting times?
Edited by Jesleyh on 03-08-2013 13:24
Did a little CQ head 2 head on both riders. Kelderman has never lost an I.T.T. against Bak. (5 times in total). Though, Bak must be motivated racing in his home country. So I think he'll take the GC.
