Davitamon Lotto hätte es doch gar nicht erst zu einer Ausreißergruppe kommen lassen sollen, wenn eh schon klar war, wie du sagtest, daß Ausreißer heute mit einem großen Vorsprung ankommen können. Gleich nachzufahren ist die halbe Arbeit, anstelle 15 Minuten auf 100 km rauszuholen.
h weiß ja nicht, warum du es nicht als Lutscher Sieg bezeichnest, wenn man nur am Hinterras von Hinault hängt, dann eine Attacke startet, als Arvesen und der von ag2r das Loch zufahren und sich dann die meiste Zeit wieder dranzuhängen. Am Ende hat er auch wieder nur am rad von Arvesen gehangen (fast so, wie Hincapie, nur nicht ganz so schlimm), um dann wieder als Sieger hervorzugehen!
Ist für mich ganz klar ein Lutschersieg!
Klar, Lotto holt die erste, die zweite Gruppe zurück und danach geben alle Ruhe oder was ? Du verlangst da das 4 Mann 239km an der Spitze fahren..

Wenn einer gelutscht hat dann war das Hinault der sich dne berg raufziehen lässt und im Flachen keinen Meter mehr geführt hat... und an Arvesens Hinterrad war er nur ein paar Sekunden nachdem er er erstmal das Loch wieder zufahren musste... mit Hinault lutschend am Hinterrad...

Sébastien Hinault goes straight by Grivko and then up to and past Tankink. Then it's Savoldelli's turn and he is up and past Hinault, who latches on his wheel.
17:04 CEST 232.5km/7km to go
Grivko, Tankink and Arvesen are next behind Hinault and Savoldelli; the Giro winner goes over the top of the climb ahead of the Frenchman with a few seconds advantage.
17:06 CEST
Hinault is not working, just hanging on Savoldelli who is know in full flight on the descent, his favourite terrain. Gerrans is hanging on to Arvesen with difficulty, and Grivko is dropped.
17:07 CEST 235.5km/4km to go
Hinault is coming through now - despite being clearly pretty stuffed - but Arvesen and Gerrans are only a handful of seconds behind.
17:09 CEST 236.5km/3km to go
Savoldelli and Hinault are watching one another but working, while Arvesen has some trouble getting Gerrans to come through. He does, and the four come together.
Savoldelli jumps clear as they come together though...

Arvesen goes!

Gerrans counters, Savoldelli sits on him then jumps under the flamme rouge
17:11 CEST
Savoldelli is towing Hinault back; Gerrans is cooked

Savoldelli has the legs and drops Hinault, but he has a long way to go to get up to Arvesen on the finishing straight, the Norwegian going flat out. But Savoldelli has grand tour winner's legs, and he can just close Arvesen down in the closing 30 metres, and he takes Discovery's third stage win of this Tour.

Gerrans and Arvesen were six seconds back at this point. It seemed the stage was slipping out of their grasp, but Savoldelli was being frustrated by an unhelpful/shattered Hinault. The Giro d'Italia winner sat up, gestured angrily and then jumped clear, only to be hauled back by a fast-closing Arvesen, other two in tow. The Norwegian then jumped with about 1300 metres remaining, opening up a promising-looking gap.
Savoldelli looked to have missed the boat but the Discovery rider was not giving up. He shot after Arvesen, inching his way up to the CSC rider and blowing Hinault off his wheel. The final 300 metres saw a mano-a-mano duel between the two. Both seated in the saddle, pedaling furiously, Savoldelli reeled in the lone leader, then came past within a stone's throw of the line.
