Re: Re:
When it comes to ITTs Contador has more to teach than to learn from Valverde. However, Contador should learn a valuable lesson from Valverde: how not to fall 3/4 times a year.
El Pistolero said:Valv.Piti said:"I was a bit conservative into the first flat stretch after the Karabieta descent, because my team-mates departing earlier reminded me to keep some energy for the final 7km, after the Soraluze slopes, where the real difference was made. I just went on full steam from there and - well, the strategy was right."
Contador could really learn something about this. Probably what won him the race.
He's just in better shape at the moment, Contador has far more time trial wins in his career however, so he shouldn't learn anything from Valverde. They're completely different riders.
