Yep, they have to get rid of him, or he might be dangerous by the finale. 6 kms to go will look like fireworks.

Tortured face of Purito turns into ecstasy on the finish line -- magnificent ride by the veteran to dislodge some good riders from that breakaway. Fuglsang was quite a brilliant ride also -- I might have followed my own advice to lay his pants off, but just couldn't find the nerve, and clearly there were some tips around for such a strong performance by him.
I think after that ride, it appears that AST have worked on him to be a strong support for Nibali in the mountains, and he took the leadership role in both hands for this stage! |
