Actually Armstrong admitted to wheelsucking...but he didn't call it that, he called it "following wheel"...lol

I am hoping for some opportunities for Cadel...bless him....he needs some good luck to happen to him....oops, bit fanboy/girl that, ah well. Go Cadel!;)

Cadel was interviewed on Eurosport at stage start and said today is not a day for GC. It would be suicide to attempt anything. When pushed he said that he's far enough back to try anything but not today.

I saw a portion of that same interview on the pre race show here. They also interviewed Matt Lloyd, who said that they were not about to give up even with a 3 minute deficit, so obviously they are on the look out for opportunity, most likely not today, unless I guess Armstrong or Contador have a bit of bad luck, then I think it will be game on.;)

Well Wegelius is in the break. Are they sending him ahead to wait for an Evans attack? Stranger things have happened.

Yes I know.....but the commentator on the tv has managed to confuse Kloden and popo, van den broek and wegelius...from my point of view, while I believed he was there, I couldn 't trust the commentator for confirmation of this lol
