I so feel for froome thanks alot Team Sky Froome would have 2 GT's now,
the race is over now unless miracously Purito and Valverde do ok in the mountain's,Froome wont get a podium place at this rate.
Froome in tour form was riding every one off his wheel,he would of been a different animal for Contador if fit .
It would be great for Contador to win tho after his troubles ,i just think Froome will finish below gesink even and Froome on form is on another level in climbing and ITT to Gesink.

I think he is going for the red or just let it slip with a couple of seconds or so.

There is no such thing as letting it slip. They all are going as fast as they can. A couple of seconds can decide the title if they are consistent in the mountains. It would be insanely stupid to give away time deliberately.

To prove my point Purito could still be ahead of froome on GC after this .Sky should withdraw him nothing to be gained now.

Ye Purito is a great decender but there is still almost 10 Km flat - but either way he did better than I had expected. Gaps small before the mountains :D
