Re: Re:

It's funny because in May Porte was crushed by Contador.

To be fair they were quite even until Porte's penalty/crash. Porte was peaking, and Contador was.. yeah in okay shape back then.

But remember that Porte abandon the Giro before the hardest stages, and the first 8 days of this Tour he have been hiding. So he should be relative fresh.

He cracked badly during the second week. At the start he was riding well indeed.

He crashed and got injured

Re:

Uran should retire from cycling

What an idiotic thing to say.

Apart from anything else, Uran clearly made a decision to soft pedal of the maillot jaune group to conserve energy. He will attack at some point to come.

 

[rainman]

Mr producer forget Barguil ffs. He's been dropped

This coverage is absolutely hopeless. No indication of what is going on between Majka and the yellow jersey group

Re: Re:

Sky simply has the best rider and by far the best team!!!

Yeah sure, it's the new Us Postal

Yep, Sky were unbeatable in the Giro too. Oh, wait ! Wasn't it Saxo Tinkoff showing total dominance there?

I really hope that was tongue-in-cheek. Contador was isolated for much of that race. Astana was the strong team of the Giro.

Lol. Quote of the day

 

[cineteq]

Nibali, Valverde, Sanchez and Contador on the descent!

Re: Re:

Jrod was never gonna do anything this Tour. He was the most overrated rider leading up to the Tour.

Afterwards it's always so easy. This reaction is a disgrace.

What are you talking about? Go back and read my posts on Jrod

If you said it before this Tour, it was based on no arguments

Eh? So if one correctly predicted that Jrod would be bad this Tour, it was pure luck? Right. Anyway, I've been saying that Jrod has been on a steady decline since 2012, yet die hard Jrod fans delusionally kept believing that he could reach his former level again

When were Us Postal unbeatable in the Giro?

Giro is not important. There is only one Tour de France!!!

Did you even watch the race? People were talking about how weak Tinkoff were there.

 

[Marco Pantani]

Majka in same shape as last year.

Indeed. It's been about 20 minutes since we saw any of themm

This camera on Barguil is embarrassing. Completely missing the main breakaway group.

He did finish 4th in the Vuelta last year, but I agree that it has been a noticeable decline the last couple years for him as a GC rider.

Hope some of them tries to ride around Dawgs elbows and goes on the descent.

Sure, he was on a decline in 2013. Winning the WT, 3rd in Tour, winner of Lombardia and moral winner of the Worlds

He's not as good as he was in 2012/2013. But still good enough to ride a good GC. This has just to do with sickness, horrible shape or something else. Not on being too old of other kind of nonsense.

LRP and G look like they're out on a sunday morning club ride.

 

[djpbaltimore]

Majka with ~ 2min advantage over the top. Game over.

We need an orientation session for the trolls who join every July.
