Somehow, I have flashbacks from 2010 Lombardia, this descent looks really similar, especially for Nibali...

Nibali maybe being conservative for the Olympics, would suck to crash when he will be a contender for a gold medal.

Gold medal >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> random tdf stage.

Not even a single GC attack. This must go down as one of the most pathetic Tour ever.

How would that happen at that pace? You don't seem to understand how fast the Sky train is moving.

Exactly. People need to understand how the Sky team have just sapped the strength out of Froome's rivals. Just brilliant teamwork.

Every team has that level of simple basic teamwork. The only difference is Sky have so many watts because their budget dwarfs the rest

It's not just about money. It's the meticulous preparation, the close training regime. You haven't seen that kind of team ethic in any other team.

Great breaway action!

The fight for GC really embarrassing. Pushing the limits on the descents would have produced wild things. I guess everyone opted for safety. Even Nibali.
