Fleur, you know what i'm gonna ask. What's your judgment? This should be enough for you to judge. Tour in the bag?

I was just looking at those photos on twitter

He looks skinny enough, still 1month to lose some more weight and get below 60 kg

Re:
Alberto posted a photo of him training on the same day
Seems everyone left today. With him were Kreuziger, Paulinho, Valgren and Hansen.
He was ahead I thinkportugal11 said:

I saw the tape too, so I was glad to hear it was months ago and not recent!!
Thanks!
Too funny, I saw it was claimed that it was from the current camp, go figure
Phew with the tape then too!
Re: Re:
you got over your skis when you started imputing hubris to Contador (that his over confidence caused his crash). that's just an unknowable and inflammatory thing to say that doesn't bolster your point. 2014 was a tough year. he was clearly on great form and it was all for not. Nibali won because he stayed on his bike until Paris. ah but I'm sure you knew thatdamian13ster said:

He looks pretty fat. Just shy of a full Betancur

Today is a big day. Let's see how his weight is during the marchacontador.
I expect you to fully analyse it fleur.

In an interview yesterday, he said that although he won't fully discard the possibility, it is becoming more and more unlikely he'll ride for his own team next year.
So I wonder who he'll ride for, I don't see an obvious fit.

I'd like to see him on Astana again
Maybe Katusha, though Kristoff wouldn't be too happy, but then again he hasn't proved yet the level where he can expect to lead a Tour team.

On Astana, at least we'll know he'll always be great in the final few stagesNetserk said:I'd like to see him on Astana again

Re:
Darn, I was really hoping for his own team.
Next team will be a dilemma. It sure would be nice if it was one with really good support riders though.

Would be funny if it rains and he has a rainjacket on all picsMiburo said:

There very few teams that
- Need a new GT leader
- Have the money
- Have the support
- Don't have MPCC stick up their butt.

Re:
I don't know if MPCC would be an issue
There are lots of teams that would want a GT leader of Alberto's level though!Red Rick said:

Everyone wants him. To give an analogy. The moment Lebron James went back to the Cavs the team didn't only became way way better but also became one of the most popular teams in the public eye.
The same thing will happen with Contador. You're gonna get so many fans to that team. In terms of publicity, the value is insane of having him on your team.

Looks like it was a rainy and cold edition, from what I've read he just went alone on the climbs lol
His legs don't have amazing definition, but I guess he still has time to lose some more weight.
He doesn't look good at allBlurryVII said:Looks like it was a rainy and cold edition, from what I've read he just went alone on the climbs lol
