In an interview with Marca, Richie Porte says he expects Alberto to finish ahead of Quintana.

And in x interview, I heard that x rider expects Quintana ahead of Contador...

Whats the point?
This is the Alberto Contador thread, and Alberto is the underdog for the overall victory. Why can I not post quotes from other riders who predict he will win/outrace one or both of the main favorites?

If such posts annoy you, you can always ignore them.

Their opinions are relevant, more than yours or than mine.

They don't annoy me, I just find it funny how selective you are. How many interviews/previews/experts etc. have you seen the opposite stated, yet, obviously doesn't post those quotes?

Inner Ring has him a rank below both Froome and Quintana. Or said in other words, he is as close to the BMC duo ( :eek: ) as he is to Froome and Quintana.

I've not seen other interviews, I select my interviews carefully :D previews, yeah, of course. But why would I post them? I'm not objective and this thread isn't meant to be objective :)

In terms of ranks maybe, but obviously there is a big difference in terms of likelihood to win between Tejay and Porte and Alberto. It is normal that previews put Alberto at a slightly lower level than Quintana and Froome.

Obviously, for he is Alberto Ahai, The Champion That Was Promised, The Last Racer. And his will be a bike called Lightbringer, which he will drop the Sky King

Just read a ridiculous french article on Eurosport on Contador, full of bias and exclusively judging him on the last TDFs he did, they say he's aging, they literally give him no chance to win unless Froome and Quintana crash. 2 out 3 comments under that article are clinic jokes.

Ignorance at its best, holy *** fuckity hell. Can't wait for this to kick off
