He really shouldn't be that bad, it's mind boggling.
I guess he overcooked himself trying to follow Froome. It's an entirely different dynamic. In the TT he could just ride his own tempo, never going too far into the red.rune1107 said:I don't understand how he could do a prologue on the level of Porte and Froome, and then get wrecked like this today? The Tour looks difficult now..

You should give him your number so you can coach him. If you wanna cheer for someone just you expect him to win all the time to fill the gaps in your life, then go cheer for the warriors, djokovic, barca,...
In the dauphine he's normally always eh but not in 2014, not a good sign although i don't think it's terrible. Tomorrow he won't have to control anything, that's a positive
