Wyatt Earp Posted July 12, 2013 Share I love this tweet from Kittel. Marcel Kittel @marcelkittel11h3 facts about today: - @1t4i rocks - had a 2nd doping control in the hotel - still can't believe all this - called my parents, they're drunk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcza Posted July 12, 2013 Share I think Cav is surprised by the speed of Kittel and that Greipel has the best lead out train. OPQS does not look properly organised in the final kms. Kittel is the one with all the confidence now and will believe that he can win again today. Been a fantastic tour so far and so much more to look forward to esp Sunday and Mount Ventoux Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great to see more contestation out there.Makes for exciting watching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TiBones Posted July 12, 2013 Share Do you think Mark Renshaw will slap the leadout team into shape when he joins? At the moment they are a disaster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll admit that I was wrong - I was convinced that Cav would take all the flat stages but its great to see another german bomber! Sagan should retain Green.

jcza Posted July 12, 2013 Share Do you think Mark Renshaw will slap the leadout team into shape when he joins? At the moment they are a disaster Is it confirmed that Renshaw is coming back? I'm not sure, the young guns are looking very fast. Preview from inner ring Another day, another sprint? Yes and if I’d pencilled in today’s run as the most boring of this year’s Tour de France there’s always room surprise, especially for the superstitious on Stage 13. Yesterday we saw Chris Froome narrowly avoid a crash whilst team mate Edvald Boasson Hagen left the race with a broken shoulder. There are not many chances left in the Tour for the sprinters. Perhaps tomorrow but that’s uncertain and then all that remains is Paris. With so few chances left for the sprinters to win this means high pressure to deliver.

Yesterday Cav had to start his kick far too early (nobody left in front of him) and was basically run down by Kittel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dev null Posted July 12, 2013 Share What is the wind direction today? A good chance for throwing some high cards and putting some potent riders in a breakaway? That little hump may just cause some consternation. I would bet on a second breakaway on that hump by someone going for glory today from a smaller team. What do you hubbers think?

Forecast looks similar to yesterday and I think stage will be same as yesterday. Early break, peleton to catch them and sprinters to finish it off. I think the hump is too small to cause any panic.
