The stage will have started already wont it???? Where would be the best place to get updates.....live feeds wont start till 2/3 of the way throughRdBiker said:Liquigas will send Pellizotti on the attack on the penultimate mountain and before that they probably try to get a guy in the breakaway. I think yesterday was Basso's turn and today is Pellizotti's.
Menchov will follow Di Luca and Leipheimer so I don't think he'd go after Basso, Pellizotti or Sastre.
Leipheimer will follow the wheels of Menchov and/or Basso and hope they will fade on the final climb. His time difference to Menchov should be +/- 30 secs.
Finally I'll take a wild bet and say that Di Luca will be dropped on the last climb. If either Basso/Pellizotti/Sastre are up the road he might crack under the pressure of the chase group. I don't think he can climb (and we saw that in the TT) as well as Menchov and I might even say that he'll get dropped before Leipheimer.
My bet:
1. Pellizotti/Basso
2. Menchov +2.00
3. Sastre +2.00
4. Leipheimer +2.20
5. Basso/Pellizotti +3.00
6. Di Luca +3.00
Armstrong, Rogers, etc. +5.00

select the day, then there is a number of different options for your viewing pleasure, select the feed of choice.
It's in Italian so turn the sound down and go to EuroSport and select live audio.
(although with the French open on at the moment the audio starts a bit later throught the stage)
Alternatively go to http://www.cyclingfans.com/ they list a number off different live feeds.

The pretenders to the throne will drop away one by one leaving a small group, time gaps between these guys won't be that great. Menchov to finish first out of the top people, then LL, then Di Luca and Pellizotti.
