Alberto Contador declara a la cadena SER que tuvo calambres producto de la deshidratación
webvan said:How many Ks did Froome pull for Wiggo exactly in the TDF, 15 at most, he'll be fine, unlike Bertie who'll end up making a fool of himself like on the 2011 TDF.
He will increase his lead day after day. Counting on Spanish Armada to ambush Froome and put him out of contention at some point. Only Contador, Valverde and Gesink have a podium chance.hiero2 said:Personally, I think Rodriquez was the biggest winner today. I wouldn't be too surprised if he manages to continue to make things interesting over the next 2 weeks. Also interesting to see how Froome is handling the AC threat.
hiero2 said:I wonder what it takes for you guys complaining "boring" to find it interesting. No, take that back, I don't really wonder. I think y'all are just complaining too much. Sigh, well, you are entitled to your own opinion.

20 look-downs a minute.

I think he really intended to win the stage so Saxo worked. No one just can guarantee that he will feel very well all the climb. He cracked literally 300 meters to go." said:That probably was the reason why Saxobank went so hard. A scenario you usually dont see. They tried to protect him as long as possible. Sadly they were finished at the worst possible moment and left AC uncovered on the foot of the climb.

roundabout said:They did all they could. Perhaps a bit early, but you didn't really expect Saxo to be setting the pace on the last climb, did you?
Contador was left in a good position to start the climb and was in the last 4 when the action really kicked off. His legs quitting in the last 500 is not the team's fault.
LaFlorecita said:Perhaps I am not really smart. Or not.
Perhaps I am just ****in ****ed off because I've been waiting for this race for 6 months and yes, if Alberto is not gonna win I will be angry and sad and disappointed.
