Vuelta a España 2012 (with spoilers)

Should suit the man in the red jersey.

He's put his cards on the table and said as much. He'll be looking to put time into his rivals is a quick paraphrase.

Where would be a good place to find a summary of the day's action? This thread is a bit uninformative if you don't actually know what happened!

Cheers, both.

Well, that was exciting.

Must have missed that bit.

I notice from the Cycling Weekly link I posted that yesterday's stage wasn't considered interesting enough to merit a report.

Sprint finish : Degenkolb from Bennati.
Next...
Edit - whoops, commenting on the highlights from yesterday... that was wednesday.

Tactically interesting today. With people like De Gendt in the break, not too many of the other top contenders are likely to want them to get any further away, but there's a game of chicken going on between the top teams over who if anyone is going to be forced to do the work of closing that gap. Valverde and Movistar seem to be trying to force Sky to do it... there's clearly some needle there. Let's just hope that, if Sky do up the pace, he doesn't fall off again...

This is hotting up. Lot of pace from Movistar

 

[smutchin]

Henao and Uran are quality. So is Froome, for that matter.

 

[thom]

Wow, wasn't expecting that. Rodriguez from Froome and putting time into Contador. Impressive from SKY there indeed.

 

[smutchin]

Wow.

 

[Tomi]

Did Froome give the win away? Not wanting the red jersey?
