Agnoli blows. Capecchi takes over the front.

Aren't Liquigas up a bit early? Capecchi already setting the pace. Not that I'm complaining though, since it's more fun this way.
Rohregger dropped at the front.

Final climb's too short (ends 2.8km from the top) and the 2nd last climb is easy. They should've replaced the Lavazè with the Pordoi
Tiralongo blows. It's his day. Tomorrow it'll be Kreuziger's. They take turns apparently

Rodriguez looks less comfortable today. Liquigas are going really hard.

Actually in past GTs he's been much better the 3rd week!
Just not his day.
RodrÃguez doesn't look very good, btw.
Brambilla's turn to explode.

Moreno about to be dropped. He'll leave RodrÃguez isolated on the 3rd last climb. Yikes
Well, I said yesterday Purito would probably lose time today, and I'm more and more convinced of that.

Are Casar and Pirazzi really keeping the same pace as Liquigas?
They haven't lost anything since the beginning of the climb.

By Giro standards. It has a hard patch of nearly 3 kms near the finish, but the rest of it isn't really a mountain.

And now Kreuziger seems to be dropping back to Tiralongo.

But Kreuziger still looking great today. Is this even possible?
Edit:What happened with him now?

WTF, it took minutes after Tiralongo was dropped for Kreuziger to be told to drop back to help?
And what good will that do? We're 42kms from the finish, he's toast no matter how much Kreuziger helps him.
Oh Astana...

Too bad Szmyd isn't up there. He would have blown the team cars away.
There's a fine line between "psychotherapist" and "psycho the rapist"
