Andy near the front. Long range attack? Here is Rolland!

 

[roundabout]

Pierrot!!!

I disagree. If your tactics don't account for how you feel, fitness, or potential for success, they aren't good tactics.

The "might as well go for it" has not substance

So what other tactic do you suggest using Roche and Paulinho for? This basically was the only thing you could do with them after missing the first break.

 

[Kender]

TOMMY!!! Get that tongue out

 

[luckyboy]

Voeckler, Rolland, Didier, Poels

 

[murali]

moser catching riblon

Yep. Gotta make Sky work. One way or another.

 

[Bakhjulet]

Moser climbing well.

 

[murali]

fugslang and quintana are on either side of froome. saxo, where are you?

 

[roundabout]

At least Nieve has balls.

Rogers?

 

[Scott SoCal]

Look stressful for TJ. Huge crowds...

 

[luckyboy]

[Aditya]

Nieve goes after Rolland. Smart move!

 

[TANK91]

TJVG will win this

 

[cineteq]

Saxo superteam have 2 left vs Sky's 4?

As if we don't know they're going to implode big time pretty soon.

 

[thrawn]

Nieve on the attack too woo.

 

[Kender]

Yep. Gotta make Sky work. One way or another.

Sky didn't have to do any extra work. They burned the same 2 riders they would have regardless

 

[the sceptic]

booing sky. nice

 

[Poursuivant]

Booing Voeckler - embarrassing.

 

[roundabout]

Holy Moser.

 

[murali]

[Flamin]

Lol, Dutch ppl booing Sky/Froome?

 

[Broth3r]

The Japanese champ is a trooper. Always there.

[TANK91]

These spectators are a joke.
