Inquitus said:I don't like Chris Froome, I am jusy analysing the facts dispassionately, if Froome hadn't crashed then getting crushed by Alberto would be highly significant, as it is he crashed and we don't know how much of an impact that had.

Publicus said:His mental edge over Contador is gone.
LaFlorecita said:Yes, seems like a huge waste of energy.
Publicus said:Froome is going to say whatever he can to save face, but fact is he tried and failed. I suspect he will be fairly demoralized about this race. His mental edge over Contador is gone.

A rather sweeping statement - if you wanna make it more objective why not contribute during the race, instead of after? Peace & Love man.Mellow Velo said:A pity that this place sucks so much, when it comes to objectivity.

What a tactical mistake! I know he was more interested in sending Froome a message but... to think he could've killed two birds with one stone is going to burn him for a while.
And Tinkof... WTF! WTF! Jesus Christ! Where the heck were they???
Contador just wanted to show Froome how strong he was yesterdayBetter Call Saul said:Ironically, contador taking the GC lead yesterday cost him the race. Had froome retained the lead, sky never would have let a break like this go. Contador would easily have taken the time from froome today and... Bingo!
