2012 Tour de France: Stage 11: Albertville → La Toussuire - Les Sybelles (148km)

[TourOfSardinia]

And I actually hate Sky too, because they didn't let Froome to win this.

Froome hasn't been "working for this for years" so he wouldn't be
so "credible"

 

[maxmartin]

Nibali please attack again
W is at his limit!!!!

 

[its like that]

Froome told he can go now and chase Rolland

 

[Waterloo Sunrise]

It appears obvious that Froome was taking Nibali with him and away form Wiggins. Sky couldn't allow that. I think if Froome had made the break on his own Sky would have let him go.

Nah, Nibali couldn't follow Froome, he was well gapped too. Wiggins never bothered to try and go with it. Either had nothing more, or stopping to shout in his radio.

 

[Parrulo]

nibbs seems to be on the limit, so no more attacks for him today

just hope he at least doesn't crack

Why is Sky so desperate for Wiggins to win????

If they had let Froome go, they would be 1-2 at the end of tonight and the win would be guaranteed. As it stands, there is still a slim chance it could all go wrong, ala the Vuelta (although highly uinlikely it must be said)

They want a pure Britisher to be the first British winner of the Tour De France.

 

[Moose McKnuckles]

Froome doesn't even look bothered. He dropped Wiggins like a stone.

Why don't you get it. Froome is the most naturally talented cyclist right now, and this is the greatest performance by a domestique in the history of the Tour De france.

Any more over-exaggeration you want to get out of your system?

 

[college]

Great Wiggo and Froom going for it. Team Sky are awsome.

 

[Buttelski]

Huh

its disrespectful by SKY towards the fans

What a load of rubbish - its a team sport

 

[Waterloo Sunrise]

Come on CAS, beat the group.

LOL!!! You're so entertaining

 

[Cowgirlup]

TdF shouldnt looke like this...

This x a million.


Anything but this.

 

[goggalor]

Bah, Wiggo the Wheelsucker. Free Froome!

 

[Montanus]

Twilight zone! Froome looked done, now he tools the competitionen, showing he is clearly the strongest. Just wierd.

 

[Armanius]

So Froome could have dusted Wiggins, but told not to? Sounds like Michael Schumacher being gifted the win from Rubens Barrichello in their Ferrari days!

 

[Bala Verde]

Must be fun for Wiggins to win the Tour knowing that it's gifted?

 

[booboo]

Froome is keeping the pace too high to attack.

Wigans doesn't look good though.

 

[Red Rick]

Please Rolland, take the stage

 

[Hayabusa]

Nibali wouldn't have gone with Froome but would have gapped Wiggins slightly.

 

[its like that]

ffs let Froome go!!!!

 

[will10]

Must be fun for Wiggins to win the Tour knowing that it's gifted?

Was Froome going to gain 2 minutes with that move?

 

[issoisso]

They want a pure Britisher to be the first British winner of the Tour De France.

Born and raised in Belgium by australians counts as "pure britisher" now?

 

[Fight.The.Power]

its disrespectful by SKY towards the fans

I dont feel disrespected

 

[webvan]

Evans on the mend, saved by TJVG, who would have thunk!
