It is stable.
No edit wars, etc.:

~~File:Daniele Bennati-Vuelta a España 2011.jpg was nominated for deletion~~

Deletion discussions in Commons are often extremely long, so I just hided it. As the article is very long, it may take some days to fully review it. Regards.--Kürbis (✔) 13:51, 5 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Surely you're not saying you're waiting for that deletion discussion to finish. I have replaced the image in the article. It's no longer relevant. Green-eyed girl (Talk · Contribs) 19:34, 6 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I did not say that I will wait until the discussion will be closed.--Kürbis (✔) 17:58, 7 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Overall:
Pass/Fail:

Genesis of the new team
- Looks good--Kürbis (✔) 08:29, 7 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Spring classics:
- One minor point: I would remove "itself" in "The second group on the road gradually whittled itself down to a select group of top favorites. "--Kürbis (✔) 08:40, 7 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  - Removed. Craig (talk) 11:20, 11 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Fall races:
- Define "neo-pro" in "In August, Nizzolo continued his strong neo-pro season with a fifth place ride at the GP Ouest-France, ..."
  - Link added. Craig (talk) 11:20, 11 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- I don't understand this sentence: "Zaugg then showed a portend of his coming late-season form at the Giro dell'Emilia,"
  - Portend refers to this. Altered to signs. Craig (talk) 11:20, 11 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    - Yeah, I thought you could use that word as a noun. Evidently not :$ Green-eyed girl (Talk · Contribs) 18:26, 11 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Repetition of "behind"; suggest rewording: "eventually finishing the day in 7th place behind 21 seconds behind the winner Filippo Pozzato.[77] "
  - Doesn't need to be reworded at all; taking out the first behind and adding a comma makes the sentence flow better. Craig (talk) 11:20, 11 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Forgot signing--Kürbis (✔) 11:14, 7 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Stage races:
- There is a typo at the end: "The elder Schleck brother held his advantage through the flat stage and individual time trial on day two of the three-staage race," --Kürbis (✔) 17:34, 7 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  - Rectified. Craig (talk) 11:20, 11 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Giro d'Italia
- Looks good.
Death of Wouter Weylandt
- "Race doctor Giovanni Tredici, and the doctor for the Garmin-Cervélo team " - I would remove the comma
  - Removed. Craig (talk) 11:20, 11 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Tour de France
- Looks good.
Vuelta a España
- Looks good.--Kürbis (✔) 17:51, 7 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
rest:
- Looks good.--Kürbis (✔) 17:58, 7 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like Craig got the remarks taken care of. I found a few other small errors (typos mostly). Green-eyed girl (Talk · Contribs) 18:32, 11 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Pass Good work and a shame that it was so long in the queue. Regards.--Kürbis (✔) 20:04, 11 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
