I was basically correct about the penultimate stage of the Giro d'Italia. Simoni, Di Luca and Rajano all made life tough on Paolo and at one point had enough of a lead on the road that Simoni was the 'virtual' leader on the road. But with an amazing descent of the Finistre climb and then a more than adequate ascent of the Sestriere, Paolo kept Simoni in sight and won the overall by just 0.28.
This next week Lance Armstrong starts his pre-tour racing with the Dauphine Libere in France. This should prove to be interesting. Stay tuned.
