Psst, I think it was a trolling attempt.

Hatred doesn't bring to purification
Thanks

Unfortunately it made Alberto towering over him even more; and Alberto is not tall at all, so that's kind of weird.

Levi is very short. Not his fault, just one of the shortest GC guys out there.

Lol the woman translator is trolling Levis answers.

Levi comments: Contador is a big champion and won many races so it´s good he won and it´s good for Tour de San Luis...

Cmon Levi you can do better than that!

GC

1 Levi
2 Contador +46
3 Diaz +1 31
4 Schumy +1 36
5 Nibbles +1 50

Schumi must be gutted about those 5 secs to the podium

Specialized have swept this race so far.

Oh, Levi said something and pointed at something and then they laughed or something like that. But it just makes my heart grow, especially because of that tension you mentioned.

That was just bike racing back then and I'm glad to see that was left behind

Nice going by Diaz. Was pretty dissapointed that he didn't get a contract in Europe this year. He's quite a talent.

I guess after his missarable 2011 he didn't really deserve one, but great to see him show the potential he did back in 2010. Perhaps he just did not have the motivation last season after missing that protourcontract with Geox.

Anyways if he continues like this he should definetly be back in Europe soon.

It looks like he could still loose some weight. Strong performance, nevertheless...

Yes, I'm sure it was the bike...

I would be worried if he was at his ideal weight in january

about brands, did Contador finish his contract with Giro?

Yes, it exspired in 2011.

Helmet en sunglasses sponsorship switched to respectively Specialized and Zeroh+ as from this year. Like his shoes last year changed from Sidi to Specialized. However, his shoes from this year are still unidentifiable (but I guess some new prototype of S-works?)...

Fidolix & Nilsson thank you both for the answers

Alberto has always been king and doesn't need to prove anything. I think Levi is the one who is punching mustaches off the haters this week.

Far out i thought Nibali would go well. Impressive performance by Diaz. Nice win by Contador who will now not win the overall.
