Good stage for Inxausti. I believe he still can take the U25 jersey with two MTF's and the TT coming up!

A pity that Marzio lost contact with the breakaway. Today I had a good opportunity.
I agree with the partner. There is still ground to try something.
Luck crack

I can see you're getting a bit frustrated. A rider like Rujano can attack and attack every stage and even multiple times every stage and in the end he easily outrides yours.... 
Hopefully they'll be recovered tomorrow and can shine on the Finestre and towards Sestriere.

Well, things got worse here.. and if stage 20 won't be better, I fear you will lose your Top-15.. hopefully, I'm wrong

Well, it's true that the game has some unsettling failures. Your opponents can attack 10 times and you almost one. Your opponents always are faster than you in the final meters of a sprint. His energy and resistance seems to be infinite while yours is blowing in the wind.
But hey ... it's what you get. We have no other thing to try and enjoy. Sure there will be other races where you have better results
A greeting and good luck mate

Baia said--> ooohh before is forget...his name is Noe...yep, hard to believe but it´s him, that 80 years old guy...
HAHAHAHAHAHA some things are frustrating, really. A little to improve for next year these details, we will have a super game. But well, now we have to deal with it 
I see Rujano not going to do 2 º because no remaining stages.
Importantly, the Super-Giro Nicolas Roche´s doing, incredible!
Too bad Beñat not able to fight for the jersey young and that we escape the stage victory. To see what happens in the final lap and .. what is the next goal for team?

In fact, it's not unsettling failures, it's what you get when you decide to play extreme.. your opponents will have a +2 or something bonus on their stats and you'll have a -1 or something like that.
But well, at least Kiryienka defended his Top 15 on GC, that's a good thing!

I know and agree with that. But you will agree with me that in hard is very easy to get results and in extreme is "overly" difficult. The jump from one level to another is "disturbing"
Anyway, as I tell Baia ... we can only try to do the best we can and enjoy.
A greeting
PD--> Yeah, I think it's very good that top15 of Kiryienka Go Movistar !

Losing only 12 minutes in the stage, not bad 
Just be patient, in the Vuelta you will have the nationality bonus.....
But: it's very tough to ride a good GC with your team. They are decent climbers, decent time trialists, but not capable in riding 3 strong weeks! That's also irl with Movistar!

I think you may have to put this Giro D'Italia down as a learning period in your career and come back next season with better preperation and goals and hopefully a stronger squad |

Next year with Alejandro Valverde the result will be different hehe.
By the way, you are planning a reinforcement for 2012?

That's true, but then you can edit the local.cdb in STA_race_difficulty and make Extreme 'less extreme', I mean, less harder.
Anyway, it wasn't a horrible Giro. Although you couldn't reach the goal of Top 10, a GC Top 15 and some good stage results makes it a nice race. Maybe there were higher expectations before it, but the better results will come back soon, I'm sure

It's called extreme for a reason I agree with lluuiiggii though, it's not a bad Giro for you, considering the startlist. You're only one place behind Scarponi, you're in front of Menchov, with a climber like Kiriyenka that's pretty good.
