Tour de France 2015 stage 20: Modane - Alpe d'Huez

Re: Re:

Froome is not the strongest Sky rider for the first time this Tour.

I don't believe for a second it's enough for Quintana to win the Tour, but it's still significant.

Froome is 15 minutes into a 40 minute effort, Poels is 15 minutes into a 20 minute effort? We'll see

True, but still the ease with with Poels rode to Quintana, having to be called back time and again. He doesn't look good, and Poels does. But you're right, Poels doesn't have to keep the reserves Froome does.

Edit: I should probably have said that for the first time he doesn't look like the strongest Sky rider, which is obviously different.

CMON NAIRO

sky is crunching the number..... at this rate... keep pedal at this rpm.... we'll catch them..

 

[Irondan]

Hesjadal and Pinot! Great stage ending!!!

 

[Maaaaaaaarten]

Valverde gone, but he got his podium anyway. He was strong today and I respect him for the move on Croix de Fer.

Also, Froome is actually really looking bad.....

When Porte takes over the pace making, SKY will really fly.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Froome is really having trouble following Poels

Re:

If not for Poels and Porte, it would have been exciting today. 2'38 is impossible even though he is giving his all, Quintana.

Not impossible if Froome had a hunger bonk.

Come on Hunger bonk!

Anancona has been riding really well in the third week. Great job from him.

They didn't keep the pressure on him on the Croix-de-Fer descent, so very unlikely he didn't eat

 

[Jspear]

Quintana has 20 seconds on Froome

 

[Big Doopie]

i think quintana might do this.

 

[Fight.The.Power]

27 seconds

 

[Simurgh]

****...it's probably gonna be Quintana anyway

 

[Irondan]

Nairo's not gaining enough time... Lets go Nairo!!

 

[SeriousSam]

Nibali about to catch Contador

 

[rick james]

Quintana is going to do this

 

[fungusbear]

FLY NAIRO FLY

 

[TI-Raleigh]

Around 30 seconds to Froome, I believe. Nibs catching Contador group.

 

[Ramira]

If only Quintana had dared to go early enough to take another 30-60 seconds yesterday. It would actually have been exciting.

 

[GuyIncognito]

At this rate, Quintana is going to win the stage. He's eating up the break's lead

 

[Hugo Koblet]

30 seconds.

 

[TaBaixo]

Come on Nairo, nobody wants Sky to win!
