Just keep calm and patient Matthews, next year you'll have full leadership of whatever race you want.

Which team is he going to ?

he's not going anywhere. 2016 with Orica too

He's staying at Greenedge, but seeing as he's Australia's best upcoming rider and Gerrans will surely start to fade as he gets older they'll ride for him. They don't have a dedicated GC team so he should get leadership in whatever race he wants. Next year he'll probably be better than Gerrans anyway.

Contador will for sure attack today.

Re:

Doesn't like he suffers at all but pace is not hard enough for him to win.

Needs to make it harder.

Aru mustn't be good otherwise it really makes no sense for astana to not do anything.

 

[Squirbos_19]

What's happened to super Astana, I can only see 3 teammates for Aru.

Probably there over aggressive first week starting to take its toll

Re: Re:

Contador acceleration!

 

[Maaaaaaaarten]

Betancur doesn't care about mountain points here?...

NVM he sprinted for second, just didn't follow Intxausti

 

[Miburo]

Contador attacks LOL

Aru couldn't follow at the end.

That was to test aru

 

[Red Rick]

Contador is trying really hard to work for Astana it seems

 

[Rollthedice]

What is Contador doing? Three Astanas follow.

 

[goggalor]

Contador just has too much energy it seems.

 

[Moose McKnuckles]

Contador wanted to be at the front on the descent.

 

[BeagRigh]

Re:

Contador isolates himself with 3 Astana

 

[Publicus]

Aru is dead and Contador knows it

 

[Miburo]

He was testing aru for sure and aru couldn't close the gap at the end.

Contador still has kreuziger, besides astana doesn't even use their man advantage and what's the point if your leaders seems to suffer.

 

[Hugo Koblet]

Contador doesn't care about the Astana riders. He cares about Aru who's clearly not very strong. That said, it wasn't a very smart move.

 

[The Blues]

Cataldo and/or Landa should attack now. They need to take advantage of the fact that he only really has Kreuziger.

 

[GuyIncognito]

Re:

Checking how Aru is doing

 

[No_Balls]

Re:

So when are they going to hand over leadership to Landa? Aru dont look good (or is bluffing big time).

 

[WheelofGear]

Contador's team have been damn weak in the mountains.

Alberto should have waited to the final climb.

 

[Miburo]

Wouldn't be surprised if contador attacks on the next hill, not sure if that's smart unless he gets porte or uran with him.

Aru really not looking good.
