Are you guys actually blaming BMC and Katusha? Lol, pathetic. So they should just give up their overall and stage ambitions to help Contador?

They're 14th and 12th on GC. They should have given up GC hopes ages ago.
You wouldnt see Garmin chasing like this.

What should they do? Let Froome and sky burie themselves maybe?

Why? Froome could let this group take a minute and it hardly matters. However if BMC and Katusha keep widening the gap and chase down the front they put themselves in a much better position.


Some of you need to get over the Sky hate.

BMC and Katusha are POS teams for sure, Evans is 14th, WTF ?! Even worse than Riis helping Indurain when Indurain was in the front in 1995 on the way to Mendé...

14th place is better than nothing.

Who cares about 15th place?

Chasing should be sky's and Froomes responsibility.

Well they are a bit far back to really care if you ask me...

What should they do? They're not riding for the audience at home, they're riding for themselves. Why should those guys care if Contador or Froome wins?

Exactly they shouldn't care. So why are they taking sides?

But they would still be in 14th place if they didn't do any work today. The only reason for them to work is that they seriously believe they can still catch Contador and Mollema.
