Christopher Juul Jensen will leave Saxo, confirmed by him and Oleg (on twitter yday), he has no new team yet, but he thinks he should be able to get a new contract elsewhere.

I agree, he is a smart guy who knows how to win, you cant expect him to win every stage, by himself, and attack on every mountain putting 4-5 min into the other contenders on every mountain. However even if he did that, I am sure people would just say it is weak competitions and/or he has motors...

I have also been really impressed with him, looking forward to see him rest of the Giro

Re: I agree, but guess the last paycheck from Tinkoff was too good to turn down..

Is this the last chance Porte will get as leader with Sky?

Re: That I agree, but at the same time, it might something to do with National pride etc, maybe Orica is trying to show they can take better care of Porte than Sky can... ;-) But I do agree, they could give a bonus to Clarke or something, as he was the one doing the fairplay.

Re: Re: Fair play is one thing, but it is not the other guys fault he did not follow the rules. You can argue they should all protest, but then where does it stop? If it is raining and they have descend and a few riders don't like and others do, should they all stop? If there is a crash 3.5...

Re: But surely someone in the car will be screaming in his earpiece he cant do it and has to wait for a teammate? Is this much different than when Porte "illegal" gave Froome a gel as he had forgotten to eat so he could still go ahead and win? Guess Karma is a *** some times.

Andre Greipel

I like him as well, nice to see someone who is not afraid of attacking, should be fun to watch next few year.

Re: Re: Could also be, kid runs out of money to have his toy...

I still think Uran could come back to some sort of form, but seems he will have to without a team, as not seeing much help for him at all. I hope that Rogers and Kreuziger will come into form, also expected a bit more from Basso and hope he will be stronger going forward, otherwise it might be...

Doubt it will enough to shut up Oleg, but at least it might helps Sagan's confidence

Froome for the win, I think Fuglsang could do well as well, maybe top 5?

Maybe De Jongh went to Oleg after the argument and agreed with him and said he was not allowed to do he is best or not allowed to do his preferred training regimes?
