For all of the talk of Nibali and Astana bossing the stage, Tinkoff is quitely riding a great stage

Are they? No time into froome. Maybe they think they will get it in the mountains but I've seen this movie before and it involved conta and saxo hoisting the white flag half after 1 mountain stage.

I don't think Contador's goal was to put time into anyone, but to minimize losses which so far they've accomplished. The only one looking to make differences was Nibali (actively looking as indicated by their riding).

Contador and Nibali are riding like beasts.

Uhm…subjective much?!

Nibali rides really great, but what has Contador done to separate him from Froome and Quintana?

He has been at ease on the front. I'm being quite subjective. He's lost no time to Nibali or Froome, who some were predicting to put time into him, especially Nibali. Getting through today with the same time as the favorites is what they all need to do. The pressure is on Nibali and Quintana to put time into Froome and Alberto.
