3 stages down and 3 top 10s. I can't complain. Especially considering we are by far not a top team here! Hopefully we can keep up the good form and get some big points and move up the CT rankings here.
Impressive performance here by Cabrera again. Not showing himself all year but then always on top in America.
Van Heerden screws Eritel up here. Basically just a continuation of their whole season. SN will be surprised/shocked once he sees the struggle of Eritel. Hopefully Berhane/Teklit at least show something now. That team lineup shouldn`t belong to the underperformers in the Tour of America really.
3 out of 3, what a legend. And the ease of that sprint, so impressive. Congrats Miguel. I'm glad with Coutunho's performance, being 2nd behind that monster is almost a win.
Now onto a break from the Cabrera show. Thanks for the reports, Tamijo. Brilliant stuff so far!
Great stage for Pozzovivo in the fight for the GC win here! Compal also doing well here with this win and the relegation fight is going strong seeing also Aeropostal`s sprint domination.
Next to Pozzovivo also Berhane with a decent result while Reis, Eastman need to find their legs in the long climbs even though it will be interesting with Telkom and Augustyn being best placed.

Okay nothing wrong for us that stage, we still need to pull a surprise somewhere in this race to get some real points which we will absolutely need, but no problems yet.
Ouch this was unexpected! Starting the climb at the forefront of the pack to losing almost 3 min to guys with more or less the same hill ability ismind blowing. What a silly finale. I can only hope the next couple of stages will give place to a recovery from Reis.
Nice triumph for Compal though, shushemoin was superb! Pozzo and Rujano enjoyed this too surely as well as a few others.
Good points to take home from here, Shushemoin finally got to show off his Kazakh jersey and what a way to do it! Lowe also hanging onto top 10 here, at least almost. Good race so far, and so cool to get to see the video clip off Cabrera, what a rocket!
I knew our TTT team was decent! I knew it! I knew it!
Whisper it quietly, but we could win this.
