2016 TdF, Stage 8: Pau → Bagnères-de-Luchon (184km)

[Hugo Koblet]

This makes a lot of sense. Froome is one of the better descenders, so he should try and push Quintana etc. here.

 

[Pantani Attacks]

This is a stupid waste of energy by Froome

 

[trevim]

Lovely tactics from Quintana. Wheelsuck all the way up and let go of Froome on the last 10m of the climb. Brilliant.

Nice one by Froome not his fault that his only competitor is so dumb.

 

[Zinoviev Letter]

Yates still there. Good ride after looking like he was about to disappear during the attacking finish to the climb.

 

[Publicus]

Credit where credit is due, FRoome attack where his competitors thought he was weakest

 

[Hayabusa]

People moan that Sky are predictable but nobody will have predicted this!

 

[MikeTichondrius]

Chris Salvofroome?

 

[TomLPC]

This could be the most hilarious move in years

 

[Andro]

Valverde should be able to close this gap.

[Gigs_98]

I really really diskike froome, but that move was superb

 

[laurensde+]

Froome so stylish on the bike.

 

[More Strides than Rides]

Alright Valverde, how good of a teammate are you?

Re:

Froome is high or something? Wtf is this? haha

He's done this in the past as well. It seems he just likes to descend alone.

Re:

That's like saying Sky's kit is black. True, but nothing new.
Stupid wastes of energy are what Froome's always done. It's why he always fades in week 3
