Some daily form predictions:
Safarzadeh +5
Godoy -5 (He gets at top 10 but with a 'home race' advantage he should be destroying the race here). Nice to see him putting in some attacks though.
Some wise work by the favourites by the looks of it, to let the late attackers go to the finish, as the top 3 in the stage and now the GC are all TERRIBLE men against the clock.  |

Great ride by Vosekalns. I happily take that mountain jersey for now and the points for 5th on the stage. Now continue the attack until the race is over 
A Big Thank You To All MG Reporters! |

Poor showing from Rosskopf there on the hill stage, definitely expected better. Then again, once the decisive move is made it's hard to do much of note.
Tuulhangai hasn't done much lately, missed the cut on Stage 2.
Tsmoha, great reports, it won't matter whether it's one or two per day

Solid ride from Castano. Putting him in a great spot for the GC. Hopefully he and Kulhavi will be creating fireworks on the mountain stage now as two of the best climbers here.

Our sponsors won't be happy that Sayar didn't care at all to show himself at least a little bit.
I hope that Oba will bring at least a decent result in the TT. |

@ Stromeon Thanks bro.
Awesome result for Nutresa, been slowly building through steady performances on stage 1 and 2. Not only Valencia taking the stage, but Beltran also gaining a cushion ahead of the TT, almost perfect! With decent TT'er Ibanez also well placed, have to hope that the yellow jersey gives Valencia wings, and we come out of tomorrow's TT with 3 cards to play in the top 10. Even an outside chance that Beltran has enough time in hand over the better TT'ers to make up for time-trial deficiency to move into the lead? Time will tell. After an appalling couple of races, this is more what was planned for pre-season!
 well earned .
Also hats off to tsmoha for the reporting (todays MSR preview also excellent).

Slightly disappointed in De Greef again, I though he would be amongst the best of the Continental Tour.
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

Nice podium by Joeaar. Too bad he is already out of GC...

Could've been worst. Donald 7th and Ferrari didn't lose that much time. Let's see if Vasquez can at least win the mountain stage to see if this race won't be a waste of race days. |

Nice performance by Oba as fourth, just missed the podium unfortunately. Two more riders in the top 30 + Sayar not loosing too much time makes this a rather successful day for Siam Cement.  |

Solid showing by Nutresa here 
I was hoping for a smaller loss for Schwab, but Fumic (what the hell is up with him? ) makes up for it for the moment. Will be interesting to see how the situation turns out for us. Could be great, could be catastrophic.

Well it was a TT what could I expect? We'll have to show something in the mountain stage otherwise our presence here will simply not be justified (Seems like not the first time I've said that so far this season )

Had hoped for abit more on the TT stage by Castano but 15 sec is nothing the remaining mountain stages. Lets hope for some better mt. AI than Tachira now.

Not the best TT for Bonsucro, but not half bad. Nicacio and Godoy and maybe Paulinho are certainly good enough to all finish in the top 10 from this position at least.
The boys from Brazil will put in some attacks that is for sure. |

Kasa 9th isn't too bad, but it isn't too good either. Mixed feelings here, but still happy with 9th in GC. Hopefully, he won't move outside the Top 10!

Need some attacks. 16th and 18th in GC is no where near enough.
