Don't think the Tour guys can really peak anymore, just hang on to their form for dear life and hope they don't get deep fried, baked, cooked and barbequed, all at the same time
For the only one who that could happens is Quintana, becoue it his first time to double Tour-Vuelta, but not for the rest.
But with Quintana you never knows, as well
it is not normal to be second in your first GT, and more if is le Tour. That is totally unusual, so he could double well too...who knows..
I expect Froome with a level similar to le Tour, with less spark, but enough to win to the people that came from il Giro or Chaves. Tomorrow is not a bad day for him, long climb, not very step. and he must be there with the best. He just need to be regular, take advantage of a stage as fuente del Chivo, and do a good TT in Burgos.
People from leTour as Purito or Valverde looks that dont want to waste any extra power.
Landa looks like he just follow Aru and dont waste more energy, other way his director could be upset if he pur some econd to Aru...
