Re:

Froome having a bad day?!

Obviously a tv mistake
He is on par with TLMRTP.
Richey however *** it up with starting too fast

Re:

Why did Aru start the Tour so badly/////couldahve podiumed alongwith Porte ...maybe yet ???

He didn't really start that badly, he just lost 3'22" to Froome in the TT. Add in the descent and the echelons and he lost about a minute and a half in the climbs.

Aru's problem is that he's a very bad time trialist for a GC rider. Nothing to do with form.

Quintana aint gonna even top 10 moutain tt..jeez

 

[mr. tibbs]

Martin, Aru, Froome--who looks worse on a bike?

Not terrible for Quintana.

 

[woodburn]

Froome going to win this.

 

[Geraint Too Fast]

Adam Grabsch.

 

[Ruby United]

deja vu for Doumolin though I feel this one may not go his way

 

[Guybrush]

pretty decent for this version of Quintana

There's no reason to think that he could have podiumed based on his later performances either. He hasn't been among the very strongest on any mountain stage and he's always going to ship time on flat or flattish TTs.

DAWG 1st!

 

[huangho]

Quintana having a bad day... after another and another and another...

But still will close the gap to Mollema and Yates...

 

[TMP402]

Yates *looks* awful there.

 

[johnymax]

Froome wins this IMO.

 

[Ataraxus]

Yates one minute down.

 

[rick james]

Come on Dawg

 

[Billopoulos]

Froomey best on the last check by 14'', easily going to take it

 

[TMP402]

I fear for Froome in the technical section at the end.

 

[Pricey_sky]

Yates faded,

Froome timing this perfectly.

 

[Arked]

Froome is crashing it and showing how to properly pace yourself during TT.

 

[woodburn]

Re:

Looks like he will finish 10th.

 

[Billopoulos]

Froome is flying atm, he is going to expand his difference and just manage that descent.

 

[TMP402]

I like the group who turned up with massive "Bayern Rundfahrt" banners.

 

[ontheroad]

Almost a muted reaction for Froome from the fans.

^^ Not a bad start eh ? Would love to see your example of bad if that is not a bad start

Inmy book losing time like he did WAS a bad start
