Yep, he takes a lot of criticism for being passive. But when he has the legs, he has repeatedly shown he has the guts to attack from far and often delivers.telencefalus said:i said that nairo was going to win and he deliever what a big REAL champion
He looks a bit over his normal weight and the heat does not help in those conditions. Today was cooler. It helped. With the kilometers he is feeling better. So a bit of miss-timing his peak as well. He needs to adjust his program TBH.RattaKuningas said:Suddenly he is back again. I wonder what went wrong in the 2nd week because this was a lot stronger Quintana compared to the Quintana that we saw on Alpe D'Huez.
He was totally let go today, he was 4 or 5 minutes back. It's much easier to be aggressive when you have nothing to lose. I'm not saying he isn't, but today proves nothing.yaco said:27km solo attack to win a stage in Suisse and then attacking early on a 14km climb to win a stage in the TDF - But i read he is a passive rider.
He's not really passive when chasing stage wins like today. Unfortunately, when it comes to GC riding, he's pretty passive.yaco said:27km solo attack to win a stage in Suisse and then attacking early on a 14km climb to win a stage in the TDF - But i read he is a passive rider.

"He did well by doing what you wanted him to do! Take back what you said about how he should do this!"Jspear said:Boom. Take that all you detractors.
Who let him go?Koronin said:They let him go. The top 4 had nothing to worry about in letting him have a small amount of time and Landa isn't (or shouldn't) attack his own teammate.
