To be fair Jani himself hasn't exactly looked stellar so far.forty four said:yeah he rolled in with janez this time. they should be helping levi who has some chance. la's ego/vanity is making the situation worse than it has to be. hard to watch.
Moose McKnuckles said:Why is Armstrong looking at trying to win a stage when his teammate is fighting to get on the podium?
Dunedain said:You'll need to ask Vino. As for Lance, I am disappointed in his effort. He does not seem to be riding like his message.
hrotha said:Nah, he's right where he wanted to be. 36th. Just like in 1995. He's making a statement, folks!

Thoughtforfood said:I would however suggest that Bottle might feel a bit of sting from the fact that he isn't getting any support. Someone wrote something here recently about Horner making a comment about not burying himself for an 8th place rider. If that is true, Bottle would have every right to feel slighted as he has ridden a good race for him. Not good enough for a podium, but he has put in some effort for RS. Funny too is the fact that P&P and that dumba$$ Bob Roll rarely if ever mention him. Could also have to do with the fact that the camera rarely if ever searches him out. Anyway, the guy has all of the personality of melba toast, so its no wonder nobody notices him.
BroDeal said:For whatever reason the team has decided that helping Leipheimer finish in seventh or eigth place is not a worthy goal, so they are now targeting the team classification. Horner here gives a blow-by-blow of the team trying to keep ahead of Caisse.

It appears the team is really tired.
Spare Tyre said:Reading that entry in Horner's blog is a bit trippy. They seem to be riding in a TdF in a parallel universe.
Thoughtforfood said:Yea, he was laughing riding in today, and if you notice, all of Astana's climbers came in behind him.
barn yard said:the difference here is that astana had someone at the front of the race
McClimber said:We shall see how the team does in the next 4 days.
At least Kloden, Horner, Levi, and Janez were in the main group today.
I don't buy it that others are "saving" themselves for harder stages.
