[TommyGun]

Only Nibali can do something. Contador does not seem to have the legs today.

 

[fungusbear]

Finally!

i think you meant to say "if any attacks happen in the gc group, it won't be until contador or nibali do something."

True. Astana time now.

 

[Sky'sthelimit]

Porte trying to nullify proceedings.

Re: Re:

Why doesn't Valverde work with them and put the pressure on Froome?

And when he had a chance, they stop every time, why don't they work? I'll tell you why, because it's him they were attacking in the first place! And Froome/Sky is on his wheel immediately by the way...

So you think Contador and Nibali are riding to gain 3rd spot on podium? nonsense, when Valverde closes so does Sky.

Of course they are, they even said so, also said it will be very hard. They have no illusions of beating Froome, cause now it's not possible. Valverde doesn't drags Sky, Froome simply follows him, he marked every move of Valverde so far...

It's weird how half the forum attacks Valverde when he responds to Contador's and Nibali's attacking of his 3rd place.

 

[Arredondo]

Thomas drops

Am I blind or does Rolland not have a bike computer?

Re: Re:

We're bashing Lotto for protecting their 8th place. Not for working for Sky

well thats even more idiotic. these guys train months for the tour de france. to have your driver become 6th out of 200+ riders is an amazing accomplishment. if you cant understand why these teams protect their top 10 finishes than you dont understand cycling.

If you think 200+ riders are battling for the top 10 then certainly there's someone here who doesn't understand cycling.

No, people criticise him for not working with Contador/Nibali to try and win/help Quintana win. He just counters and wheelsucks.

French director is French
Although they do seem a bit more chauvinistic with the coverage than usual this year.

 

[meat puppet]

Finally. Now keep the pace up too

 

[djpbaltimore]

Astana need to press the pace. This is Nibali's best chance at stage victory.

 

[Publicus]

Frooome has Poels left?

 

[fungusbear]

Porte gone. And G
