2013 Tour de France, stage 17: Embrun / Chorges 32 km (ITT)

[Afrank]

Froome 11 seconds back, but had a bike change there.

 

[Netserk]

Froome will win

 

[Waterloo Sunrise]

Froome not on a good day, but looks like it will be good enough.

 

[go crazy]

Froome soft pedaling

 

[The Principal Sheep]

Froome has this.

 

[Cimber]

Froome got new bike = better on the last descent than Contador. Froome will win

 

[taiwan]

The Contador and Kreuziguer relationship is starting to look very schleckish . . .

Called it. Cbf finding the post though.

 

[the sceptic]

Dawg can go full *** in the descent here. Will catch Mollema and win the stage

 

[Finn84]

Blatant cheating by Sky, uphill bike change and they push him part of the uphill.

 

[Pippo_San]

YAY for JROD!!!
Suck it Vomistar and RaboBlancoBelkinFail!!!!

GOGOGO Dawg! Smash em!

 

[Parrulo]

So Froome climbed the last hill around 25 seconds faster than Contador

 

[Rollthedice]

Froome almost better than Bertie with bike change.

 

[Jelantik]

if he didn't change bike.. froome clawed his deficit.. should be interesting.. how it fares at the end...

 

[King Boonen]

Called it. Cbf finding the post though.

Me too, pretty sure on Ax3.

 

[ILovecycling]

Oh fvck,that will be close,its a pity that 2 descend is not technical

 

[Kender]

I can't understand people always saying froome doesn't look good... Have you guys not been watching the rest of the tour?

 

[wwabbit]

Froome trying to mess with the time checks changing bikes before the intermediate point...

 

[luckyboy]

At least it looked like someone else might have a chance at winning for a few minutes

 

[Bumeington]

Froome got new bike = better on the last descent than Contador. Froome will win

At least we'll get the answer of whether the bike change was the best strategy

 

[webvan]

Froome to make the catch in the final straight IMO.

Unlikely, times very similar for everyone between #3 and Finish.

Kreuziger might win this though.

 

[go crazy]

Here comes the rain!

 

[DirtyWorks]

Froome not looking too good and possibly a bike change to come...

He can lose a minute or more. But, I think he's got some alien left for today.

 

[spalco]

****ing Kirby has forgotten Pais Vasco already?

 

[hfer07]

WOW-Nairo was fvcking flying!!!

 

[Afrank]

Quintana 52'44, great time!

Eurosport commentator is such an idiot.
