Re:

Breakaway stage. I don't expect froome to attack, just follow opponents. Contador and Nibali not yet in form to do it don't think. So maybe Quintana. What I'd like to see is sky actively pursue the second podium spot and send Thomas up the road or even Porte in a break. That's what I would do on pcm if I was 4 mins up with the strongest guy in the race.

Cannot see any of the above happening.

Gonna be a carbon copy of yesterday IMO . . . .

Sagan wins the green jersey.
Majka wins the polka-dot jersey.
Contador wins the yellow jersey.

Buchmann to take the win.

 

[The Barb]

KOTM will be won by Quintana or Froome. Maximum points remaining on this stage are 37, still much less than the 50 Froome got at the finish yesterday.

 

[Boleslav]

Now we have today's winning group! It will quickly get up to 10 minutes lead over the peloton. Dont think Demare and Simon will make it across. Pauwels for the win while Voeckler and Majka will focus on KOM.

We've got ourselves a psychic here...

Has Froome attacked yet?

Re:

He climbed the Tourmalet earlier and is now cycling backwards towards the peloton whilst reclaiming mana by performing rituals to the stem God

 

[sir fly]

TJ ready for the descents.
Looking forward to the ascents.

But he's right. This break will almost certainly make it. I don't agree that Voeckler and Majka will focus on the KOM though. What does that even mean? That they won't ride for the stage win?

I wouldn't mind seeing Samu attacking with TJ over the top of the Tourmalet and putting the hammer down on the descent.

 

[sir fly]

The Aspin should tell the breakaway's destiny.

This.

Out of all the top riders TJ will be the most defensive.

Re:

I really hope to see Froome the roleur materialize. The most important thing is to take a long good look on the stem and check what options it will suggest and then just go for it. Dont fail us now Froomey, we know you want to.

Above all do what stem says. Do not fail stem.

 

[Miburo]

If i know Contador majka is a set up for him but i doubt it, i think he completely gave up.

 

[The Barb]

Dan Martin trying to bridge a four minute gap!!

 

[infeXio]

Bennati has abandoned due to a crash. Massive loss for Contador if true

Lol you're cute

 

[sir fly]

Martin to catch them on Aspin?

 

[Sasquatch]
