    "Brick" Basso in virtual pink.
    He needs to have a 3 minute lead at the top of the Gavia, or he'll still lose. :oops:

    Why the F is no one helping Arroyo?! They're ALL losing here.

    The difference in climbing speeds has to be quite marked - 2.40 and growing with 2k to go.

    I think they are all cooked. Except for the clean riders at the front of course.

    Yep, I think my belief in this race ends today after the top three's performance. Sorry, Aldo.

    Lets see who wins. Maybe Scarponi has been working in return for the stage but then he would want to put time into the others as well so had his own reason to work.

    Sad state of cycling today - when I mentioned to my girlfriend how evans had cracked and Basso was riding away, she said, "That just means his drugs are better than Evans'"

    That's how the Giro works, you watch the race, it's exciting but you have to wait six months to be sure of the result :wink:

    No way did he ride nearly enough to deserve that win. Superb work by Basso and Nibali.
