Jack_89 said:Simple control today. I got the impression that he did not want to sink the shot and was limited to control rivals. Good run anyway, one day less!
LaFlorecita said:Hmm, to me it seemed like Alberto could not do much more, when he attacked he couldn't even get the slightest gap. Alberto has to improve and drop Valverde big time at some point, otherwise Piti might collect enough bonus seconds to take the win.
It may well be. Or, he feared the last km plate, he was afraid of being taken up in the final meters and give more bonus to Purito and Valverde. Or maybe it was affected by the alleged cold. ...LaFlorecita said:Hmm, to me it seemed like Alberto could not do much more, when he attacked he couldn't even get the slightest gap.

Jack_89 said:"La victoria de etapa ha sido para el mejor, y yo me he limitado a vigilar a los rivales que están más cerca en la clasificación general", ha dicho tras su primer día vestido con el maillot delíder.
El corredor de*Pinto*ha insistido en que las fuerzas están "muy igualadas, en una subida en la que no ha habido una continuidad en el ritmo duro".
Netserk said:Purito and Piti in the drops, Contador on the hoods.
The stage win was for the best, and I have limited myself to watch the rivals that are closer in the standings," he said after his first day wearing the jersey delíder.Red Rick said:Meaning?
Anyway, if it rains on a mtf, Contador can wipe out Valverde completely. It didn't think Valverde was much stronger, it's not like he got a gap in the sprint
