Tony for the win, Froome will put a couple minutes at least on his rivals. Hopefully Contador and others can do good rides and limit those losses as much as possible.

Kwiatkowski I think will jump back into the top 10, maybe taking back white for now in the process.

And I have a feeling Rui could do well.

 

[BigMac]

Darn it, clicked on Kwiatkowski

Tony Martin will most likely take the win but not with great advantage over Froome.

[Parrulo]

Contador will flop like a boss

 

[Shardi]

Imagine if theres good moto-drafting like in 2009. 54 kph the first 18km for contador

Think Contador will struggle with his position, lots of scooting back on the saddle and will loose about 2min to frome. Valverde 1min30. Ten dam and mollema about 1 min...

Nah screw it, no GC contender will be within two minutes of Froome-dog..!

My common sens tells me that the extraterrestrial behaviour displayed on stage 8,,., - theres more where that came from. He will do even better TTs than in 2012.

Don't see Porte going flat out, why would he?, saving his legs is much more important now.

Martin
Froome
Talansky

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Looks like Panzerwagen is OPQS's best chance of taking a stage win moving forward.

Froome will push the German and the rest of the GC "contenders" are in damage limitation mode.

Pity Malori bailed out earlier.

 

[Warhawk]

I went with the homer option since you provided it, but seriously, Martin or Froome.

Martin
Froome
Talansky

He's said he wants to test himself and test out his new position, or some other words along those lines.

 

[Sophistic82]

froome doesnt need him till the alpe d'huez stage

 

[qwerty16]

Who of the Sky-team will go all out?

Porte alreacy discussed above. Boasson Hagen maybe? Thomas most certainly not I guess.

 

[Pulpstar]

Clinic will go mental if Froome beats Martin

 

[Pulpstar]

Who clicked on Tejay. Have you been watching ?

 

[EnacheV]

Froome will win this by a huge margin, he will go all out, he knows he needs a big buffer by saturday, when he will be all alone in the mountains again.

He also doesn't strike me as a guy who would take it easy on a stage he KNOWS he can win.

Winner:
Tony Martin. Froome if Martin is still feeling the crash.

Dark horses:
Meyer
Westra
Costa

 

[Sophistic82]

Martin
Froome
...Conti, Valverde +>2min

btw Tony wants to lose a lot of weight and transform into a gc contender over the next 2 years.

Then he must join Sky!!!

 

[element]

Could see EBH having a go. It's not the strongest TTing field and it would be interesting to see what he can do. He's been pretty average so far, so maybe he's been saving something. I feel a bit sorry for him these days.
