Dumoulin already left it all out on the road to create the gap.TMP402 said:Missed opportunity for Dumoulin and Thomas to do what Durasek did and get an extra 5 seconds.

Well, Astana is not that strange. Both Lopez and Fuglsang have a **** sprint.
But Katusha? WTF?? Just let Spilak ride tempo at the front and Moreno wins.

I think Katusha's problem was that both Moreno and Spilak are quite fast in such a group, thus none of them was interested in sacrificing their own chance for their team mate. Really, really bad, though.

What? They were closing Thomas every move.. if he made a move they all would have went.
