    I wonder if Brambilla really is a tad annoyed thinking "I'd have had him!"

    After all in a few years time very few will remember that he came third in a stage because they did a team job on another rider. It's not like his palmares is littered with grand tour stage wins.

    Great finish though!

    It appears his win on stage 8 is already forgotten by some.

    Nope not forgotten, but I'm sure deep down he'd have loved another! Like I say his palmares isn't littered with GT wins, stage 8 this year is his only so far.

    He looked genuinely pleased and celebrated as Trentin crossed the line.

    Ettix's big problem in the classics was the lack of teamwork. Good to see them working as a team now.

    I really like that Trentin didn't have time to zip us his jersey. Shows he definately put his all into the effort

    Somewhere out there Frenchie is shaking his head in disgust at the lack of style... :)

    In other news Mario Cipollini has said that it would only take him 6 weeks training to beat the current crop of poor Italian sprinters.

    Hey. Etixx got it right!

    Wonder what information Moser was getting.

    None. He'd taken his earpiece out (according to the podcast)
