Yea I think Orica are remembering there is still 80km to go and they want to pace themselves. With some climbs too.

You have to wonder why Orica aren't ridding though.

It's not that surprising
They were never really going to win red and now theyre giving up on second and reserving energy rather than wasting energy by trying to catch the group ahead and dragging Froome with them

Lopez has possibly been Froome's best dom this tour. Maybe it was a good thing Landa dropped out after all. Give that man a raise. Everyone else gets a pay cut.
 
Too early for OBE. Only 30 seconds from Contador at the moment. No reason to chase yet so early in my opinion. Will come back together by bottom of climb. Time difference now dropping back down just with a fresh pair of legs from Astana.

This is why we can't have nice things. The small mentality that makes teams ride to defend a *** 9th place. Pathetic really.
