Most disastrous TT, even worse than Pinot at the Giro

As usual, the curse of the French riders on the last TT, they really have a mental problem

Yeah, as someone posted earlier its almost a disgrace to be such non-prepared/tooled for short TT as a GT contender. French rly need some lessons in that exercise!
 
Sky screwed Landa by making Kwiatkowski pull on the way to Foix. Big shame. Froome's mvp's both get no reward today.

And the scary thing is that Henao was terrible, Nieve broke down in the 3rd week and that Thomas crashed out, and still it was never in doubt.

I love watching the tour de france. I just wish the world tour teams had a required budget range so that all teams were competing with same budget. The Tour de France especially looks like a stage race that greatly depends on a really strong team overall in order to go for gc. I applaud Chris Froome's accomplishments hugely, but his team as a whole is so much stronger than the others, and their budget is as well.
