Tour de France Stage 2 (3/7/11) - Les Essarts 23km TTT

[Scansorial]

AC could be down something like 2 minutes now? Game changer my man.

2 minutes behind Schleck is something to worry about. 2 minutes behind Evans is not.

I like Evans, but let's be real. He could easily lose 2 minutes to Contador on a single climb.

Is it me or this is pure comedy?

I laughed. Insert Panzer joke...

To be honest, having yellow at this stage is more of a burden than it's worth. So actually, they couldn't have put themselves in a stronger position.

They better get it now, because there is no way Wigans will win the TdF.

The Schlecks are not working at all. Anyone Surprised? According to the Finnish Eurosport commentator the wind has changed too and therefore every team are doing the last part faster now...The Schlecks has been so lucky but I really hope this luck will change soo...

 

[Gloin22]

Wind direction on final stretch has shifted.

 

[fujitourer]

I betted my money on sky winning. I was close. still I also betted on lotto outperforming bmc and that will happen for sure

Really? I'm not so sure.

That's a very good time by Cancellara and his wheelsuckers.

so? if he is good and has giro shape, one big MTF is enough if andy can keep up with him. not only that, if contador has a weak team, what about eivens? i hope he has 5 min on contador just to make things interesting. game changer.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Team Fabian Cancellara + LuxembourgBallast at 5 seconds

ummm...And your point is?

Uh, lessee. AC will probably be down by 2 minutes this evening.

 

[Havetts]

Cancellara, give the man a ****ing medal.

 

[Kazistuta]

I only got a quick glance, but it look like that he fell because the rider behind him hit his tire, i have to go back and see, and I believe that rider was Cavendish.

Lars Bak just said on Danish TV that he and Goss were behind Eisel when he fell. As far as I recall there was three riders behind Eisel at the time, though.

 

[GroupDK]

wauue, impressing ride from cancellara..

 

[Parrulo]

Only really matters where he is in relation to Andy. He can drop everyone one like a stone in the mountains.

that^^

and contador loses a bit more time.

how much is he behind atm?

 

[luckyboy]

I can see BMC fading towards the end, won't lose to Lotto though.

 

[Bala Verde]

Incredible Team Schleck...

No pulls and still top 3 +5s

 

[superconfex]

wow trek and the S BOYS DID FA...hahah well planned

 

[Bavarianrider]

With Grabsch on the tea HTC would have had it.
Aldag in the Gulag!

 

[MartinGT]

That's a pretty big if, eh?

 

[Maxiton]

Leopard, without Fabian they'd be farked.

 

[BYOP88]

Leotard would've won this by a country mile if they weren't handicapped by the Schleck's. I guess the best signing Leotard made was Cance.

 

[Ramira]

So the Schleck's are now 1'37" ahead of Contador. I reckon that's about what Andy needs in the ITT.

 

[hfer07]

damn- is always good to have in your team the best ITT of the world literally pulling the entire team to the finish line.... god job

 

[Havetts]

BMC 3rd on 2nd Intermediate. OPL losing 2 guys.
