Wrong communication: no neutralization for the descent from the Passo dello Stelvio. Sorry for the worng information

[jcza]

Not 100% certain but seems like Quintana has gap on Uran on descent

[jcza]

Majka 10 mins down? Waiting for confirmation

[jcza]

Gap from Cataldo to Uran is 4 mins.

 

41km to go

According to OPQS twitter:

Quintana has 2'05" over Uran. Still confirming

[tombeej]

Uran dropped badly on the descent. 2 min down on Quintana.

Uran dropped badly on the descent. 2 min down on Quintana.

 

Nee man!!!

[Jakkals.]

Quintana with the gaps on the road as things stand leads Quintana on GC by 40 seconds. Evans, Aru and Majka are in the Uran group though and that will help the race leader as they'll all need to chase Quintana and Rolland.

[Jakkals.]

There are now two Omega riders pulling on the front before we start the final climb but Uran is under pressure.

[Jakkals.]

Cataldo has 1:02 on the Dupont group. The Rolland group is at 1:30 and Sicard has been dropped from the Rolland/Hesjedal group.

[Jakkals.]

Gorka Izagirre has to move to the front now for Rolland and Quintana.

[jcza]

Uran is now 1,38 down on Quintana. Cataldo still leads the race by 1,25 on 9 chasers and 1,40 on group Uran

[Jakkals.]

Omega have pulled back from the front of the maglia rosa group so other teams and riders will have to chase. Cataldo is close to the foot of the final climb.

[jcza]

Cataldo -> Dupont, Vuillermoz, Pantano -> Hesjedal, Quintana, Rabottini, Rolland, Sicard, Izaguirre -> Calapud Gomez -> Bunch

[Jakkals.]

25km to go and Saxo and Belkin move up and held to chase down Quintana.
