Classique du Grand-Duché
Spilak23
imageshack.us/a/img836/7769/7tbv.jpg


Welcome to the rainy Grand duchy for the local hilly classic. Topping the list of favourites are i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PT/akm_zps175d5d7c.png Hagen, i1215.photobucket.com/albums/cc512/ANFreeman/Jersey%20Sprites/vesuvio.png Schleck and i1215.photobucket.com/albums/cc512/ANFreeman/Jersey%20Sprites/pearl.png Bakelandts.



It's raining in Luxembourg and almost immediately we have the first two victims. i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PT/ubs_zpsaf43a720.png Zahner and i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PT/akm_zps175d5d7c.png Aasvold go down but can continue their race.

The first 2 hours of the race are very hard. It seems like to many teams want to be in the break today as we see multiple attacks with over 10 riders. The top teams think this is too dangerous and always pull them back.

With 180 km left, two riders finally get a clear gap. They are Santander sprinter i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PT/std_zpsb6c2f350.png Reynes and i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PT/mil_zpsb1abc362.png Canecky. They quickly pull out a 3 minute gap.

imageshack.us/a/img10/1196/693p.jpg


Things get very intresting when there is a strong counterattack with 130 km to go. i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PT/pro_zpsc5cfa503.png Vanendert, i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PT/ubs_zpsaf43a720.png Frank, i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PT/ubs_zpsaf43a720.png Albasini, i1215.photobucket.com/albums/cc512/ANFreeman/Jersey%20Sprites/bo.png Klemme, i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PT/srl_zps5f456879.png Moinard, i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PT/srl_zps5f456879.png Bobridge, i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PT/wig_zps5dbe18f9.png Rabottini and i1215.photobucket.com/albums/cc512/ANFreeman/Jersey%20Sprites/pearl.png Vastaranta all go for it. A strong group of punchers, the pack has to be carefull.



The 8 chasers work well together and quickly join our leading duo.

imageshack.us/a/img824/4985/ezv0.jpg


Another crash on the wet roads. And again it's an Aker rider. i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PT/akm_zps175d5d7c.png Haas this time. Luckily for Hagen, Haas can continue aswell and rejoins the peloton quickly.

imageshack.us/a/img191/9783/44xz.jpg


Aker, Lotto and Vesuvio are leading the peloton. They stame calm but take some risks by giving the leaders a 6-minute advantag.

imageshack.us/a/img692/5624/m6ye.jpg


And we have another victim from the bad weather. i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PT/pro_zpsc5cfa503.png Vanendert has crashed out of the leading group. A shame for him as he was, on paper, the best puncher at the front.

He showes some fighter spirit and works hard to rejoin the break with 70 km untill the finish line. The break is then 4'30 in front as Vesuvio and Aker have taken up the pace behind.

imageshack.us/a/img607/364/hpf0.jpg


And another rider from the break with bad luck. It's i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PT/srl_zps5f456879.png
Moinard. But he didn't crash, he had a flat tire. He shows the same spirit as Vanendert and also rejoins the break.

imageshack.us/a/img19/8448/nu1p.jpg


We're about to start the last 60 km which will prove to be decisive and have the hardest hills of the route.

imageshack.us/a/img197/3599/xjfy.jpg


i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PT/kng_zpsafcfbe9d.png Anza is leading the peloton on the fourth-to-last hill of the day. Other top domestiques like i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PT/lot_zps2971ec30.png Claeys, i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PT/lot_zps2971ec30.png Monfort and i1215.photobucket.com/albums/cc512/ANFreeman/Jersey%20Sprites/vesuvio.png Gastauer have started working aswell.

Hagen has lost his best hilly domestique as i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PT/akm_zps175d5d7c.png Haas crashed for a second time.

Schleck and Cunego are already attentive at the front.

imageshack.us/a/img442/9749/7i69.jpg


i1215.photobucket.com/albums/cc512/ANFreeman/Jersey%20Sprites/Venchi.png Craven is the first to attack during the descent. He gets a 20 second advantage over the peloton but is still almost 2' behind the leaders with less than 30 km to the line.

imageshack.us/a/img38/2965/9wyu.jpg


We're on the toughest hill of the day and i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PT/ubs_zpsaf43a720.png Frank starts to believe in a surprise. He attacks his companions but doesn't get far and only results that i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PT/mil_zpsb1abc362.png Canecky and i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PT/std_zpsb6c2f350.png Reynes are dropped.

imageshack.us/a/img401/9900/xpp9.jpg


i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PT/cal_zpsd3e3d363.png Pozzato is the first big name to attack with 20 km to go. i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PCT/var_zps06f2aa1f.png Ginanni and i1215.photobucket.com/albums/cc512/ANFreeman/Jersey%20Sprites/vesuvio.png Schleck quickly counter.

imageshack.us/a/img521/734/rdll.jpg


But i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PT/lot_zps2971ec30.png Cunego pulls them back. He creates a 23-men strong favourites group this way. Biggest names missing here is i1215.photobucket.com/albums/cc512/ANFreeman/Jersey%20Sprites/wikipedia.png Van Garderen who is 3 groups back due to some bad positioning. i1215.photobucket.com/albums/cc512/ANFreeman/Jersey%20Sprites/Venchi.png Craven is also caught.

imageshack.us/a/img191/269/mpmc.jpg


i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PT/pro_zpsc5cfa503.png Vanendert clearly feels strong after his chase and attacks. He pulls out a gap on 6 chasers as Moinard has been dropped. The favourites are still 1'30 behind with 15 km to go.

imageshack.us/a/img10/2663/kqir.jpg


At the top of the penultimate hill and i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PT/ubs_zpsaf43a720.png Frank has to let go as Vanendert is caught again by Bobridge.

imageshack.us/a/img594/6752/0oh0.jpg


i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PT/kng_zpsafcfbe9d.png Trofimov makes a strong attack out of the favourites group with i1215.photobucket.com/albums/cc512/ANFreeman/Jersey%20Sprites/pearl.png Bakelandts, i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PT/wig_zps5dbe18f9.png Ponzi, i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PT/ubs_zpsaf43a720.png Schumacher and i1215.photobucket.com/albums/cc512/ANFreeman/Jersey%20Sprites/Venchi.png Di Maggio in his wheel.

imageshack.us/a/img850/6259/9lne.jpg


Only Trofimov got away and quickly joins 5 riders. i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PT/wig_zps5dbe18f9.png Rabottini isn't here as he just attacks and is leading 15" in front.

imageshack.us/a/img195/1432/mwex.jpg


Drama behind as i1215.photobucket.com/albums/cc512/ANFreeman/Jersey%20Sprites/pearl.png Bakelandts crashes out of the favourites group!

imageshack.us/a/img801/1306/7v2v.jpg


Starting the final hill, i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PT/kng_zpsafcfbe9d.png Trofimov has joined the leader with i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PT/srl_zps5f456879.png Bobridge in his wheel.

Klemme, Vastaranta, Vanendert and Albasini got caught be the chasers who are 25" behind.

imageshack.us/a/img266/5243/p6m9.jpg


i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PT/lot_zps2971ec30.png Cunego is chasing there and quickly pulls back i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PT/wig_zps5dbe18f9.png Rabottini. Bobridge is still following Trofimov and they still have a nice gap with 1.8 km to the line.

imageshack.us/a/img59/1117/4nng.jpg


Cunego attacked away there and joins the leaders right as the sprint is about to start.

imageshack.us/a/img546/9062/6e50.jpg


Bobridge seems to have no energy left as he is quickly passed by the chasers. He slightly blocks Schleck that way.

imageshack.us/a/img832/3733/9opr.jpg


Cunego has sprinted straight passed Trofimov but the danger might come from behind.

imageshack.us/a/img690/3623/vpcb.jpg


i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PT/akm_zps175d5d7c.png Hagen seems to be the strongest there but has troubles to even pass i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PT/kng_zpsafcfbe9d.png Trofimov. i1215.photobucket.com/albums/cc512/ANFreeman/Jersey%20Sprites/vesuvio.png Schleck is going fast aswell now after freeing himself from behind Bobridge.

imageshack.us/a/img842/4787/1a8j.jpg


i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PT/wig_zps5dbe18f9.png Ponzi is coming strong aswell and the 4 are now almost on a line next to eachother.

imageshack.us/a/img708/3148/39r6.jpg


But that is only for second place. i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PT/lot_zps2971ec30.png Cunego takes a dominant win showing he is still a legend and is ready for defending his Tour title. Well timed attack right before the sprint, nobody could even threaten him.

imageshack.us/a/img28/7229/9syx.jpg


i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PT/wig_zps5dbe18f9.png Ponzi wins the sprint for second with i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PT/kng_zpsafcfbe9d.png Trofimov taking third. i1215.photobucket.com/albums/cc512/ANFreeman/Jersey%20Sprites/vesuvio.png Schleck and i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PT/akm_zps175d5d7c.png Hagen round out the top 10. Very strong finish from the Italian here.

imageshack.us/a/img534/6201/i7l6.jpg


i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PCT/var_zps06f2aa1f.png Ginanni takes 6th in front of i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PT/pen_zpsd6e38272.png Gilbert, a celebrating i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PT/lot_zps2971ec30.png Claeys, i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PCT/var_zps06f2aa1f.png Pozzovio and i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PT/pro_zpsc5cfa503.png Gesink. i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PT/srl_zps5f456879.png Bobridge finished 14th in the end, he clearly had nothing left for the sprint.
