Duncan 23 Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 Nibali destroys the field on the final climb to take stage 20. Bad day for Evans, who now drops to third overall behind Uran. Betancur takes the white jersey for the best young rider. Mark Cavendish narrowly loses the points jersey to Nibali, but should regain it on the final stage to Brescia.Nibali now 28/1 for TdF! Just can't see Nibali having the legs to take the TdF after his exploits here. May stick £10 e/w on him however Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamieD 18,993 Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 The guy is a monster and deserved the stage wins but the red jersey was certainly Nibali's if the Galibier, Gavia and Stelvio hadn't been cut. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

OPQS were unsure of when the final intermediate sprint took place and Cavendish was bombing in front every time they went under anything which even resembled a banner!

Duncan 23 Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 Nibali down to 16/1 with 888. Now I just need Froome and Contador to ride into each other during criterium and I'll be very happy Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hardly befitting a knight of the realm He needed to be even better than he was last year to have a chance of winning it. That patently isn't going to happen, so he'll see it as there being little point in fucking himself up for a fellow Sky rider who can't stand him. Vuelta?
