If Froome goes into week 3 with less than 2:30 over Quintana then things are still well and truly up for grabs. Froome would obviously still be favourite but thi tour is massively back loaded.Gigs_98 said:I have the feeling Froome will absolutely destroy everyone tomorrow. I'd say he will lead the gc by at least two minutes after tomorrow. I really really hope Nairo will have a good ITT and then be strong in the alps so this tour stays interesting, but I fear after tomorrow everything will be done and dusted.![]()
But considering how bad Quintana was today I doubt he will be very good in the Alps. The Quintana of last year would definitely have a good chance but we don't know yet if we will have that Quintana again this year.Richeypen said:If Froome goes into week 3 with less than 2:30 over Quintana then things are still well and truly up for grabs.

Froome starts at about 16:40 local time, I think, so the other GC favourites are probably starting from 16:00 and onwardsToledo Ice Cream said:When are the GC guys setting off?

Totally agree with this post also hoping Porte and Yates have good rides.Gigs_98 said:I have the feeling Froome will absolutely destroy everyone tomorrow.

Then it reads like a full-on power test. Froome murders the field. It seems like Porte is well positioned and ready.capuldemetal said:tomorrow front winds for almost 3/4 of the stage.it's gonna be a tricky one
