Yep, important time loss for him today for sure, it's a shame I really do want to see him at his best without bad luck in a GT but it doesn't look like its gonna happen.. I predict a crash in the next few days for him also

I'm actually curious to see if Kelderman, if he shows a competitive rythm, can challenge for the victory. Last time a rider arrived at the Vuelta with so few race days ended up winning it over the age of 40. Expect the unexpected. |

OMG https://pcmdaily....st_1310094
Porte will indeed crash, apparently I can sense him crash months before
Yes and Kelderman's situation last year was similar, I believe he is a legit candidate to the podium again, one of the most underated riders in the peloton.

From what I've heard Zakarin and Kelderman were already involved on a minor crash, Zakarin seemed touched..
Anyway what do ya'll predict for today? I'm going for either Trentin or Kwiat, Wildcard is Dylan Teuns

Maybe I don't know exactly last Kms...isn't hard for Trentin? Looks more like a Kwiatkowski/Valverde finish

Climb is overly hard.. 4,5Km at 4%, last Km at 6.5%.. only if climb is brutally attacked and someone like Dan Martin can get away in the final Km but I doubt

Eurosport must have him only for bad comedic value.
