Van Winden, Balloni, Belletti & Keukeleire loose contact. Farrar and Guardini dropped from the peleton already. Luquigas and Garmin chasing.

it only worked because there was a narrow part just before the finish. Give them a wide boulevard and the Sky train are nowhere near the old HTC/Columbia train
Yet they are still 100 times better then the Rabobank train

That isn't very hard, is it?

No surprise about Feillu either. He fell hard in Denmark and was only trying to survive the next couple of stages.
Will be interesting to see if any sprinters can hold on  |

I wonder if Phinney will complete the Giro? I'm not just thinking about the injuries, but all the bad luck he has had must be hard to handle.

There's a fine line between "psychotherapist" and "psycho the rapist"

Navardauskas back in the main peleton. And he drops again.

For good now it seems. Hesjedal has a good chance of pink today then. Wonder if Thomas and Goss are still in the peleton.

I think the break will stay clear, with Malori taking pink.

Yea, looks like it now. Break went faster on Montegranaro than peleton. Would love to see Golas win

There are rumours that Farrar has left the Giro.
Edit: Confirmed. Hand injury.

According to Sporza they confirmed Farrar's abandon. He seems to have injured his hand. |

All these climbs are really hard. It's fun to watch.
