Looks like RCS haven't decided yet, even if the French authorities have.
@Kiss_my_Panache
This according to BEin sports.. #giro
@Kiss_my_Panache
The race has been modified. No mtn top finish.

Dunno how true this may be...
Galibier is OUT, its been confirmed since yesterday, I don't know what Quigley is on about.
Here's my team for today. Shame they've taken out a climb though
Vicenzo Nibali
Mauro Santambrogio
Cadel Evans
Johan Le Bon
Robert Gesink
Carlos Alberto Betancur
Luka Mezgec
Rafal Majka
Stefano Pirazzi
Update from RCS: Decision about Galibier to be made before 20 pm. French autorities working to remove the snow. http://www.pedalierweb.es/antBuspre.asp?cod=2979&nombre=2979&prt=1 … #Giro
Looks like they may have taken today's other climb out as well.
Yeah, chose the wrong two stages to try to pick for the break - never mind! Having said that, Weening got in the break today and then crashed, so I'll never know whether that would have been a good pick or not...
decision on Galibier not final. Decision to be made 8pm this evening.
Battaglin damaged ribs
Vanotti Broken collarbone
Vanotti has also abandoned.
Chalapud was in the crash but is up and racing.
Battaglin has had a bad fall and is on his way to hospital, conscious
Sprint 1
1 Colbrelli
2 Paolini
3 Pietropolli
4 Trentin
5 Nizzolo
6 Cavendish
Snowing heavily in Bardonecchia.
Garzelli was targeting today for a win. Wonder whether the route change has altered that.
Lead is six mins.

The new course will be 182k.
Glad I saved my transfers for this morning. I was wondering whether to bring in Pirazzi, but there's not enough mountain points available now (cue him winning the stage).
Uran
Evans
Nibali
Pozzovivo
Betancur
Santambrogio
Chalapud
Mourey
Gavazzi
Mmmm. I took him out for Niemiec and a ten point penalty - bit of a rush of blood I think
Well done sir, and that's the difference with everyone else- you squeezed in pozzovivo who looks good for top 5. I thought about taken 10 penalties and swap him with pirazzi last night, but thought the pirate would be in the break so not worthwhile- should have waited till this morn! Grrr
They've now cut Sestriere from today's route....although we're still expected to get the summit finish at Jefferau!!
So nobody thinks Scarponi might make a move, then?
Pretty annoyed they're planning on shortening tomorrow's stage, means my 50 penalty points probably weren't worth it and with one less mountain top finish its likely today with get crazy with lots of teams looking to get a summit finish stage win.
It's still taking in the Col Du Telegraph so it's not like it'll be a 50k Crit?
No penalties

Nibali

Was considering a Lampre rider but not convinced with them yet......
Looks like a lot of very very very similar teams today. The penalty points might decide it. All I'm saying is I have taken no penalty points (sorry enrique) and I 'm praying Gavazzi is not outside the time limit
with Wiggins gone, will they totally be behind Uran now, does this mean Henao wont be allowed to attack??
No Penalties
Nibali
Gesink
Uran
