aarrhh.. maybe everyone here was right. Contador got a good legs today, he might have messed up and let Tejay and Bardet slip away..

“It was a day of cycling when it’s hardest. The truth is that I had good legs and perhaps I should have tried something else, but at the end of the day, I’m happy because my legs are fine. Tactically, you’re always wiser after having crossed the finish line. The race is still open, there are still three stages to go and important things can happen. The crucial thing now is not getting cold, recover as best as possible and tomorrow will be another day. From here to Barcelona, the terrain makes it more difficult to attack but it’s not impossible,” says Alberto Contador.

Looks like something in store .. for more.. Lanciano everyone??

Contador: “The race ends Sunday”
:D:D

Hard day of cycling today. Cold and snow. In the pic it looks that I'm 10 years older than yesterday! Keep working! pic.twitter.com/tP8BYnSvMU

Haha. Still no scientific solution for fogged up sunglasses, dew on the power meter and plenty of blinding mist. :p

Yeah, I think that the moment he beat Purito in a sprint was the moment he realised he ****ed up tactically

Purito said he started the sprint early on, so that's perhaps partly a explanation Alberto beated him at the line.

Love it how Contador desperately tried to grab some boni's.

I don't think Contador can drop Purito on the climbs. Today he attacked, but Purito answered really strong, he reacted quite late.

The only possibilty is that he surprises Purito in the sprint, because today Rodriguez rode tricky in the finale.
