The Hitch said:So for Froome to beat Contador definately sends the alarm bells ringing.
Not the end of the world of course. There are other scenarios. Maybe Contador is just here for the pay and the sun and wouldnt have even bothered otherwise. Maybe he is trying to save himself for a few goals. Maybe he plans on doing things differently this year with the train. He has sucked worse before in races (eg Criterium International)
Or maybe Froome simply is now a better climber than Contador.
I do take heart from the fact though that Evans beat Contador and Nibali was close behind. Because that suggests it may have been more Contador sucking than Froome improving (and its a lot easier to deal with the former than the latter).
Some good points Hitch.
Was i surprised AC sucked today,yeah,i must admit i thought he had the form to win.He could be here for the pay,sun and promotion of the team and waiting for later goals.He probably knows Froome in July is going to be a different Froome to last year's Vuelta so a meaningless stage today has just eradicated any chance of complacency from AC for the rest of the year.He will have been slightly concerned by it for sure,also Purito's continuing excellent form,was at Lombardia and thought he was incredible in atrocious conditions.
Do i believe Froome is simply now a better climber than Contador.That i am unconvinced of.Maybe last year was Froome's TDF and his team didnt want that.Still firmly believe its AC for the win in Paris.
