Tour de France - Stage 9, 168.5km - Saint-Girons / Bagnères-de-Bigorre, July 7th

[Ryongsyong]

Porte is really absolutely screwed

Yeah ... but yesterday shows he's now 'magically' become the second best climber in the whole race, so he might have a lot of power still .

Wtf

10ch

 

[Miburo]

They better destroy Froome in this stage, inexperience is crucial here.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Pinot gone

 

[Geraint Too Fast]

Pinot.

 

[Netserk]

What are Saxo doing?? Don't pull, attack!

 

[Dutchsmurf]

What are Saxo doing?? Don't pull, attack!

Getting rid of Porte first, than attack on the next mountain.

Porte and Evans 30 seconds back.

who has experience of race exploding to pieces with that far to go

 

[Red Rick]

Since Froome is alone, they should attack so he has to work on the flat

 

[Miburo]

What are Saxo doing?? Don't pull, attack!

NO PULL. Make sure froome stays isolated.

Attack later with kreuziger in the stage.

 

[The Sheep]

this stage is awesome

 

[Netserk]

Evans mechanical

 

[Red Rick]

Contador

 

[Bakhjulet]

This will never end well for Sky and Froome. Froome must calm down, don't try to defend the yellow today, he still has the ITT's, Mont Ventoux and Alpe d'huez where he can do some damage.

 

[Miburo]

who has experience of race exploding to pieces with that far to go

No but Froome is right now super ****ing nervous.

 

[Mkind07]

has anyone got a decent stream?

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Porte struggling already

 

[Gubby Allen]

once again it is proven that the riders make the race. People were saying this stage would be awful... So far excellent..!

Moral of that story. Never listen to people.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

This stage must be raced to the end, the damage can be identified later.

Saxo, Garmin and Movistar must go all in.

Racing as it should be.

 

[jsem94]

Porte dropped? Crazy.

 

[Ruby United]

porte is gone!!!!!!

 

[sjonnie]

My guess is Froome wants to be iwith the large lead group so he doesn't get separated on the flat.

 

[jsem94]

Racing is ON.

 

[Red Rick]

Contador getting out of his train to enjoy the landscape

 

[Dutchsmurf]

Porte and Evans 1 minute back.
