2011 TDF: Stage 19 - Modane - Alpe-dÂ’Huez

[luckyboy]

hah, is that the tunnel AC was stopped by the police in?

 

[Zoncolan]

That's the point. Andy took a risk, Cadel didn't. That's why I hope Andy wins.

Andy had to. Cadel didn't. That's the difference.

Voeckler is throwing a tantrum

 

[Jamsque]

Cunego, Rolland, and Tommy D still with Evans.

What a ride from Tommy D, he is getting better as the race goes on.

Andy is going to win polka dots. Evans is going to catch Sanchez soon.

 

[Jeanne]

Voeckler seems pretty mad!

 

[Buttelski]

evans only 30 secs down on contador

He'll make that up on the descent

 

[abbaskip]

All those saying Cadel didn't have a mechanical, I'm waiting for the explanations now??

 

[Ragerod]

Voekler's gone, physically and mentally. Save your energy man!

Sanchez would win the Polka if he wins the stage. It's possible.

Voeckler is throwing a tantrum

Still unhappy his supply of Spanish meat ran out last night at dinner

Hinsight is 20/20 Evans could have blown himself up chasing Andy and lose the Tour to a counterattack by Contador. It's clear that Contador didn't have the legs for that, but only in hindsight.

Yes, I know. If AC had had the legs, he would have gone with Andy and there would have been a response from all of the other GC contenders.

I wanna throw Cunego in there as well!

Dear Italian top 10 contenders (Basso and Cunego): thanks for giving us absolutely nothing to cheer on for three weeks in a row

 

[Ferminal]

I think it's better for the stage if there is a catch... that way it can all happen again on the Alpe.

 

[goggalor]

That's the point. Andy took a risk, Cadel didn't. That's why I hope Andy wins.

But Andy only took that risk because if his move failed, it would put Fränk in an excellent position.

 

[Maxiton]

Aren't these descents dangerous?

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Evans need another 15s on TV to be virtual 2nd in GC

 

[bicing]

I am afraid for them as they descend. Imagine falling down there!!!!!

 

[jobiwan]

Andy is looking the strongest of the guys left. If Evans catches up, Andy will crush him.

 

[Spider1964]

Ordinary from Samu to wheelsuck forever then attack!!!! Karma can be a ***** Sammy!

 

[Jamsque]

All the favourites will have scouted this descent, they are going to BOMB down here.

Also,

The Tour is Won on the Alpe

 

[Parrulo]

samu going all out

 

[Jeanne]

I am afraid for them as they descend. Imagine falling down there!!!!!

don't say it out loud.. no bad karma

 

[Zoncolan]

What's the gap from AC/AS to Evans?
