Re:
The funny thing is that everybody is talking about the "La Pierre St. Martin" stage although the situation of the gc would be hardly different without it.SeriousSam said:Quintana is very unlikely to win the Tour, but will he have the dubious pleasure of being the strongest climber of the Tour without winning it? Thus far, Froome has equaled or beat him on every occasion.
By my count, he lost 11 seconds at MdH, 63 seconds at PTM and 1 second after the Mende climb for a total of 75 seconds.
If he can gain more than 75 seconds in the Alps through climbing, he would be the strongest climber of the Tour.
