The finish to the stage is very hard. I doubt almeida losses more than 2 minutes if he attacks on the last climb. Also cooperation could break down in the group because of break-aways from the breakaway.UAE needs to lose only 2 minutes in this stage. If so, Almeida can still win this race.
I do think giving guys like Vauquelin, O'Connor, Gregoire and a few others in that several minutes of a headstart is dumb as hell. This route isn't selective enough in high mountains for Almeida to make enough of a difference on some of those guys if they do a good TTUAE needs to lose only 2 minutes in this stage. If so, Almeida can still win this race.
