Re:

Gerrans is working, this is remarkble!!!

not at all. Always has been a willing teammate

Re:

LottoJumbo tactics

Let's wait, Bennett is doing pretty good this Vuelta.

 

[Sykes]

Let's wait to see how are Yates climbing legs, he can push a good gap till the beginning of Aubisque with Gerrans and Cort-Nielsen with him

 

[Cannibal72]

Nice free ride Chaves will be getting to the Aubisque.

Re:

If Contador had the legs he would have went with yates i think, great move from orica

This would have ripped the peloton apart.

Except when Matthews gets involved

Righfully so. He often worked for Matthews in the past but Matthews refusing to do anything back or even acknowledging him would make me stop aswell.

 

[Flamin]

Movistar is a disgusting team. Please Froomey, destroy them.

Re:

He was getting a free ride anyway

 

[deValtos]

Isnt there a 3rd orica breakway rider? Or did they get dropped?

 

[Billie]

Movistar aren't chasing. They're setting tempo. gap has grown 20 secs since they took the lead

Why should Matthews work for Gerrans? He has a very similar skillset but Matthews is quicker in a sprint

Keukeleire. Don't know his location.

Don't think the peloton would have let him go. Yates is just about low profile enough to be allowed slightly off the leash. Contador would have immediately been marked by Valverde or even Froome himself.

no inmolation from Contador , It was funny to read his fas here in Spain

Anyway I hope him and Chaves attacking at 10 from the fiinsh.

But the real battle today is for the 2 biggest riders cycling has seen in the last 30 years, Froome and Quintana.

 

[AlexNYC]

Contador has ideas

What do you mean 'like'?

 

[Sykes]

So...Movistar will put a hard pace since the beginning of the climb, Contador will make an early attack, Quintana goes with him, Froome will be dropped...then "rising from the ashes" with his yoyo tactics, Dawg will put Quintana suffering latter in the climb

Froome and Quintana considerer Yates at similar level to Contador.
He wast allowed, Movistar started to work with his best rider remaining in the peloton, Castroviejo. The same if Contador attack from far...

Movistar still have Moreno upfront who is currently still closer to red than Yates, but ofcourse it's a threat.

 

[Miburo]

Tinkoff shouldn't be riding unless Contador thinks he can win the stage which is impossible unless he has plateau de beille legs
