Based on what we saw yesterday, as long as Froome has Nieve, he'll be fine.HelloDolly said:

The Baga region and the Cadi Moixero & Pedraforca natural parks in particular are very beautiful places, just had to say this having hiked there. Hope the racing delivers, a fast start is... Well, a good start.
Would be glad to see someone go from a distance, quintana being my first guess.

Good situation for Contador if peloton blows apart you'd think....as he will have no team mates anyway except maybe Trofimov

Re: Re:
In the bigger picture it doesn't matter very much. It's not like Froome is in top shape to challenge for the win.

Even EQS have someone in the break...Meersman

Re: Re:
Probably a combination of no track background and being from the British domestic scene before joining Caja Rural. After their initial season, the only four riders they've signed who have been on the British scene are Joshua Edmondson, Jonathan Tiernan-Locke, Alex Peters and Luke Rowe, and only the latter had a track background and he's clearly the only one Sky found success with (Peters is an unknown case so far).

Break
Ruben Plaza (OGE) - 12 mins
Swifty (Sky)10 mins
Tsatevich (Kat) over 12 minutes
De Gendt (LTS)
Weening (Roompot)
Gilbert (BMC)
Eriviti (Mov)
Ten Dam (Giant)
Durasek (LAM)
Plus one?
Swifty best placed at 10 minutes I think

Re: Re:
Best placed is Swift at 10minutes. There is no GC threat in the break. Tinkoff shouldn't care too much, AC doesn't mind winning Gt's without stage victories. And even if his team uses all their riders to chase, it's not like he needed teammates to put time into his rivals yesterday.

Exactly, Cunego was 2nd. Probably the best De Gent performance of his career so far

Re: Re:
Sigh
Over in the Contador thread they re lamenting he has no team mates at end of races
You point out Tinkoff are chasing and using up their riders and its so what
Never mind I guess you know it all

We haven't seen a glimpse of that De Gendt since that stage though.
