So Quintana must just do a repeat of those promised attacks in the TDF tomorrow and the win is in the bag.

Ja. Quintana is an incredibly talented rider. Seems a nice guy. His shyness makes him seem a little standoffish but I really think it's just the shyness. Like Cuddles in days gone by.

 

One thing I have not seen though is Quintana ride aggressively. He followed Contadors attack on stage 15, good on him for doing that. But launch his own aggressive move not so much. I'm pretty sure though that he will be able to follow anything Froome launches tomorrow.

Very agreed. A minute twenty one 'should' be enough. NQ just has to defend. Something he is good at. I am sure he'll work on the aggressive moves during the off season. Maybe.

Nice impressions

 

Yes, he's introverted nature can render him to lack aggression on the bike.

 

Lekka to see Colombia up there again

Apparently the Sagz is good enough to beat the Golden Man aka GVA. :whistling:

 

Nice to see DiData got two guys in the top ten.

 

Sagan's win all the more remarkable since he was supposedly there just to get racing k's in his legs for the European Champs and his world's defense!

That was a crazy race.. from 45km (or at least that's when I remembered about it) attacks all over the place as they brought them back another one went...very aggressive race... URAN launched a late attack the same place he did last year when he won.. but yoh.. what a final last km.

 

Sagan said he was surprised that he could win..

 

I recommend you guys watch the replay .. really entertaining..

 

 

Well done to the organisers they broadcasted it free via YouTube [emoji106] on Sunday they race Montreal.

 

 

The last 32km

GC Top 5:

 

NQ

CF @ 1'21"

AC @ 3'43"   (2'22 behind CF)

JEC @ 4'54" (1'11 behind AC)

AT @ 7'12" (2'18 behind JEC)

 

Will the top 5 ride offensively or defensively? Tempted to try to improve their positions or protect what they already have?
