2014 Tour de France, Stage 5: Ypres – Arenberg Porte du Hainaut: 156km

Wow VdB actually contributing to the action, well that's new

Well VDB is a damned good rider, he sees a shot at a podium at the very least if he can distance everyone behind him now, it's worth putting in some effort. I really hope he doesn't crash out for once, that guy is danged unlucky.

 

[chunksoul]

how much time can contador realistically lose ?

3 minutes max or perhaps more ?

 

[Better Call Saul]

Great news for the race that nibs is getting time here. Looks like he could get 2mins+

 

[MartinGT]
