    I await FF whinging and moaning about a weak rider keeping the maglia rosa. :roll:

    Brave ride but he might pay for it in the final 10.

    Great stuff.

    Arroyo catched Vino. I am seriously impressed. Superb from him.

    And before you say anything, he is doing a great job here, but he still gained 13mins from that stage so wouldn't be in the top GC mix otherwise.

    Looks like Sastre could do the same.

    Scarponi needs to join in the work, otherwise Vino and Arroyo will harm his GC placing, he has everything to gain by working too.

    Basso proving to be a liabilty. Arroyo and Vino up their arses already.
    Where could Nibali have been by now, I ask?

    BEST RACE FACE IN THE GAME RIGHT THERE

    Don't know why ppl thought that Basso Nibs and Scarp were juiced....they only have 40secs right here. Bit disappointing really.

    scarponi is in a real fix here..he just has to much time between him and the podium...

    This is IMPRESSIVE but it could all be for naught when they hit the final ascent.

    Aroyo knew getting back to Vino's wheel was his ticket for the Giro trophy.
