[Gen]

Right. . Sit gat bene rus.. let the fireworks begin.

[jcza]

Cataldo >> 9 chasers +1,27 >> group Quintana +1,40 >> group Uran/Kelderman +3,19. 23km to go

[jcza]

Quintana down to short sleeves, removes his glasses. Getting ready for the final climb. Izaguirre driving the pace. 20km to go

[jcza]

The final climb of the day has started for the first riders in the race. Val Martello (1st cat): 22.3 km, 6.4% average gradient, 14% max.

[Jakkals.]

Pantano is helping the Quintana group and that will certainly help as the gap to the maglia rosa holds at 1'40.

[Jakkals.]

Astana, Saxo and Belkin are still chasing behind as Uran and Evans sit in and wait.

[jcza]

Still confusion regarding neutralization or not. Apparently there was something on twitter but nothing on race radio

[jcza]

Cataldo --> Inseguitori 1'05'' (Quintana) -- > Gruppo Maglia Rosa 2'48''. 18 km to go.

[jcza]

Quintana and Rolland accelerates

Cataldo caught

Goggles joins leaders (Hesjedal)

[jcza]

Cataldo dropped

[jcza]

Aru, Kelderman, Majka, Uran, Pozzovivo, Evans, all together.

 

1.38 behind Quintana group

[jcza]

Quintana, Hesjedal, Rolland leading the race. Gruppo Maglia Rosa 1'40''. 14 km to go

[jcza]

Enjoy...........I'm watching the rest at home.

 

My prediction - Uran is in trouble and Quintana will take time today and win the stage.
