Vuelta 2012, Stage 11: Cambados > Pontevedra I.T.T. (39,4 kms)

[Publicus]

Still a long way to go folks and stamina has been a problem for Contador so far....

 

[Cimber]

The climb will get less steep after the start. Should suit Froome better

 

[RVPRVP]

Watch all the Contador fans say i told you so,this race as been over for days now Froome is not goona get any better he his done .
I hope the clinic realise their hypocrite's saying froome dont tire etc.

 

[Red Rick]

Where is Fleur? You'd think she'd be posting the crap out of this thread by now

 

[Alpehue]

Froome looks tired

 

[WorldsGreatest]

froome's position and movement is not very good...

Ye indeed. He lost time on the 2nd part in ENECO. The important part is that the gap between them will be relatively small before the mountains = good for the spectators

 

[No_Balls]

Thing is. He will (probably) not lose time today which is important. And with a cushion like this going into the mountains it will look even better.

 

[Fidolix]

It´s gonna be close

I bet Berto want´s the red today, boss of the race.

 

[spalco]

Froome just saving energy (hopefully). Go go go.

He's cracking, Purito is going to catch him

I never said that and still won't. He's an as "worthy" opponent as ever(and with that I mean since 2011).

I don't think it should matter that much, still W/k is the most important thing, and AC was also the best on the flat

 

[spalco]

Those live time inserts suck imo. Kills the suspense.

 

[sultanofhyd]

I think people are wrong to believe that Froome is a better time trialist than Contador on any terrain notwithstanding fitness, form etc. Contador's TT records are way better than Froome's.

Last year Contador got beaten by a dominant Martin, this year Froome got beaten by a dominant Wiggins. I don't see the difference.

 

[Publicus]

Froome is pushing a big gear.

 

[Alpehue]

Alberto gaining quite fast on Froome now.. 10 secs

 

[Cimber]

I still pick Froome to win this TT but gap will be insignificant

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Ten Dam doing much and much better than Mollema on the climb part. Mollema loses 1'30, Ten Dam loses only '30...

 

[Alpehue]

Rod 42 secs after Alberto

Those live time inserts suck imo. Kills the suspense.

I don't trust anything shown by the Spanish TV.

 

[luckyboy]

JRod actually beat Menchov at the first check, lol

Those live time inserts suck imo. Kills the suspense.

Nobody would have any idea what's going on otherwise. We might as well not watch it.

 

[Mellow Velo]

GPS all at sea.
Now has Froome ahead of Contador.

 

[Bumeington]

Conta just 3 secs up now

 

[Fidolix]

Must admit, Purito puts up a pretty good fight.
