2013 Tour de France, stage 11: Avranches - Mont-Saint-Michelle 33km (ITT)

[Jelantik]

Will Froome catch Valverde? 3 minutes... it's not impossible

yup. it's a payback from using Quintana as his rabbit experiment last week. Now he is froome's rabbit.

 

[trevim]

Contador looks fast to me.

Me too, but then I realized he was on a descent.
Fugslang decent after a slow start. Just wait for Rui Costa

Kwiatkowski falling away (wrt Porte)

 

[LaFlorecita]

I've such an aweful feeling for Contador in the ITT

So have I

 

[Aditya]

Andy losing big time guarantees one thing that he wont be seen as a threat to the overall GC. Means he could go all Landis on one of the mountain stages

 

[The Hitch]

Andy is totally blown away. Would be down 6-8 mins.... Out of top 25 possibly

Very poor performance indeed. I know its not his strong skill but this is just too much..

Andy knows he can't win this tour. Or come 2nd. Losing time in the tt is a good thing. Means he cam go all sella in the alpes.

Or at least try

38.59...Not too bad. I didn't expect much and the conditions have changed a fair bit.

 

[Hugo87]

So have I

Hope not, if Purito and D.Martin are defending himself's, Contador will manage losses like 1'15-1'45.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Quintana 49th at first checkpoint +0'53

 

[Jelantik]

ok. Evan, one GC contender already lost 2 minutes from tony. This could be froome's day to nail the coffin.

 

[sjonnie]

Evans 14th 2"30' down.

 

[BigMac]

Eurosport with scrwd audio again

 

[auscyclefan94]

NOt bad for Quintana, second check is better indicator tbh.

 

[Parrulo]

Quintana not so good as well

 

[Broth3r]

And there goes Eurosport's sound again.

 

[Afrank]

Froome could not look more alien in TT gear.

 

[wwabbit]

Kwiatkowski falling away (wrt Porte)

Pulling away from Quintana though...

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Contador 10th at '25. That's above expectations!

 

[auscyclefan94]

Contador 25 seconds off according to P&P

 

[Netserk]

Alberto with a decent performance. Let's see if he can hold it.

 

[the sceptic]

Will Dawg catch Valverde?

 

[Publicus]

The alien looks primed and ready. He beats Martin by 20"

 

[Aditya]

Come on Valverde!

 

[sjonnie]

Eurosport commentator was gushing compliments about Froome's "lower body" - Jesus!

 

[Red Rick]

Contador 10th at '25. That's above expectations!

In before better than expected memes
