Henao, Tiralongo and Cataldo loses 2'45.
Disaster for Astana.

Lol why? This was a great stage. Basso's insane pace dropping almost everyone. Then Pozzo's mini-attack. The crazy descend and the weird sprint of the dead guys |

De Gendt could legitimately aim for a top 15-20 here.

If this continues, Hesjedal wins the Giro.
That would be just too PCM-esque.

Yeah but there are better climbers behind him who should beat him up the Stelvio. If he rides his own pace then gains time in the TT he can end up there.

8 years ago we had a guy who couldn't climb with the best win it because of a breakaway that no one would chase, and because of his ludicrously strong team.
At least if Hesjedal wins this, he'll deserve it.

If he continues this way he definitly is a serious contender |

What better climbers are behind him then? He just finished in the group that sprinted for 7th place
I feel you are watching a different race? |

Come on Hesjedal, hold that position two more days, would be lovely to see him win.
btw, after De Gendt's result in Alp D'Huez last year, his position doesn't surprise me.
