Teams & Riders Alberto Contador Discussion Thread

[Jagartrott]

Fanboys and girls are annoying whoever they support.
They brush aside all logic and facts to make their case, and usually are disrespectful concerning rivals of their idol.

You will enjoy today, Contador will attacked in the last climb , and maybe he will put time on some GC contenders

 

[Miburo]

Contador should give astana all a watch or something. I don't wanna be in the hotel room when roman has 8 minutes on him GC.

All considered perfect day for him.

He looked rather easy when aru attacked.

 

[BlurryVII]

Yeah he responded well. It wasn't as bad as I thought it'd be.

By the way, I've been permanently banned with my original address ip, how did that even happen?

I thought Bertie looked a bit tired towards the end of the last climb although looked pretty good for most of it. Very fast stage and not expected.
Bertie does do the grimace even when he's on form so not a big worry.
Tomorrow could be telling for the GC. Who's recovered best.

Aru has too many people to attacked and Aru did before, but anyway Alberto was very well in the climb.

Tomorrow maybe he wait for Aru to attack.

 

[Jack_89]

Also to me , he looks good and seems responded "easy" to Aru. As i said days ago , i expects him on Campitello

If the other teams let Kreuziger take that time, Bertie's only problem would be losing sleep from excessive laughing.

Horrible is the word. The white shoes just give that flying - light look.

I was a big fan of the all white shoes. But I also like the black ones

 

[LaFlorecita]

I was in Uni during the entire stage but I am glad to hear he looked good

 

[indianfanboy]

I like the black looks mafia-esque very fitting for the Giro

Safety first for Mr Contador even on the home trainer.

Basso finished 20' in arrears. I fully expect him to abandon the race at some point. I hope Tinkov isn't paying him a huge sum of money.

He's saving himself for the final week.

i hope...

He's past it, funny, Jesus would have contributed just as much as Basso (i.e. nothing)

 

[LaFlorecita]

why's his upper body so large the legs look fine

Re:

Just in case he needs to get into a fist fight with any crazy fans.

Or with a drunk team owner

 

[indianfanboy]

I dont know whether its me but he doesnt look physically in good shape like last year

Re:

I tend to agree, I am not convinced he is in good shape. We'll see in the next few days.

 

[indianfanboy]

Hopefully he came to the Giro a bit under trained and peaks in the 3rd week and is 100% for Tour

“It was a fast and hard day again but the team was fantastic once more. My sensations were good and I felt well on the climb – this is important. The entire team did a good job today and we saved energy as a result of having Roman in the breakaway controlling the race from the front. In the finale, I had Roman in front of me and Rogers right with me until the last climb, where we caught the group with Roman”, says Alberto Contador, who expects another strenuous day on tomorrow’s stage to Abetone.

vedremo. ...we'll see...

 

[indianfanboy]

Hope he attacks tomorrow like he did before Etna stage in 2011 and then destroy everyone in campitello Matese
