Contador doing the stage analysis with the Juan and only

Saddening to find this on page 3.

And I'm unable to understand a word :( But he looks Good and Happy!

Lordy if there was ever a Berto stage, it would be today. Go from the flag and never look back! He is Sorely Missed!

If Contador did the climb in 56 minutes, that's about 5.2W/kg. Quintana was at about 5.85 W/kg, and there were twenty riders within six minutes of him. Though a few started the climb ahead of Quintana, most were in the MJ group.
context as usual, how many tour days has bertie done this year???????
How much training he's done is the more interesting question. It's the 3rd week yes, but climbing performances in the 3rd week can often be some of the best.
