Where did you see? In the stream I saw nothing special, just him walking behind the main group and the live timing also shows nothing  

Probably over a minute behind medals now.

Early leader Luo lapped after 40 kms.

Right. Yeah, his outsider shot is pretty much gone indeed  

 

Still one  in the main group, so a medal is still possible for the home team.

Surely Korzeniowski is getting more confident? @Monzanator

Yeah, he said he might just get excited soon. Still watching the chasers and says he doesn't see much fire among them.

 

You can probably tell when cycling peloton gives up the chase on breakaway too?

Garcia still in the top half of the race

Huh, Kawano hitting the ground (literally, as in punching it) and then getting up and continueing.

[dcro 10,210]

For a second I thought Kawano vomitted.

Usually, yes  

 

Often it's when the sprint teams start moving away from the front of the peloton and the peloton gets wider instead of stretched.

Korzeniowski says Tur & Hilbert should start the serious chase now. Rules Vieira out as he "doesn't have the strenght".
