He hasn't showed anything in Portugal to think he will win today. He is free to proof me wrong ofcourse.

My feelings exactly. No expectations for a win. A good showing would be fine :).

Since we are in the kingdom of bold predictions, yes, I think that Contador will have a champion reaction and win. Thomas 2nd, two Spaniards, Pinot 5th, two Spaniards, Gallopin 8th. Martin will lose 20 seconds. Not sure who finishes 57th :p .

Tinkoff working in front of peloton. Theoretically would it mean that Bertie is feeling great. Considering Tinkoff strategic abilities it means nothing or the opposite, I am afraid... But I still hope :)

Well I've had a grand week as a fan. Nibali wins a stage and takes the overall, Bala ambushes Tejay and takes the stage and the overall and Fabu wins a stage.

Alberto it is Your Turn to do something!!! A Good Ride will be enough :).

What are you laughing to?

20 seconds is a lot, it's hilarious if you compare it with 3 days ago.

He just crushed the field in a fashion that Froome does it when he's going full ***. Look up the results of 2014 algarve, against worse competition and he barely got a gap.

This hill is nothing, 3k at 10% and he got so much. Might be a good year after all

It's been years since Contador won the Tour. What you see is a man slowly descending into madness :D

I am schocked. Not by the result, but by what he's told us this year so far.

It seems that...

...he is telling the truth!!!

Awesome strategy

He won with a big margin in 2010 as well. But then it was Tiago Machado that got 2nd I think
