Re: Re: Eh? He clearly sat up, he was freewheeling through corners at the end.

You could see that G basically sat up with a couple of K’s to go.

How many minutes would G have won by if SKY actually let him off the leash in the mountains?

Re: Doubt there is yo-yo man tomorrow. Sky are going to try and make this like a TDF stage and Froome is going to attack quite early, he will either win or die on his bike imho. It's not in his nature to accept 2nd place by riding a steady pace on that final climb.

Re: Yeah, fairly flat with crosswinds and to "only" lose 2:11 was a great ride by him. Should be interesting tomorrow at least if Froome recovers well.

Considering Froome absolutely smashed that ITT, Quitana has done an amazing ride for someone so light to limit the damage.

Re: Re: 30 seconds that day would have not been enough, it looks like he's going to need all of that 2:40 he took that day.

Re: Around 40 seconds I think at the first check. 1:32 at the 2nd check.

Nairo is going to lose over 2 minutes here.

Froome isn't slowing down...

Christ, he's already caught Chavez for 2 minutes.

Foome has went off far too quickly. Either that or full alien mode.

Re: Re: Spot on imho. After blowing up and giving away 30 seconds earlier I think Froome was a little gun shy today. He now knows he can take everything Nairo can throw at him, if it's the same situation tomorrow I'd place money on Froome attacking him at some point. With a long flat ITT...

Re: LOL. They both don't care about anyone else in the race but each other, they treated every other GC contender with disdain today. Froome is already thinking he will smash Nairo in the ITT, he was talking and gesturing to Nairo quite a few times in that last 2km.

Wow, Aru only lost around 10 seconds over the last 12KM.
