I actually don't see it that way at all. JRod is working, Contador looked like he was toying today. Tomorrow's climb is long right? Almost 20 km?

as of now he clearly lacks the legs, Jrod is more explosive and just as good endurance wise.rzombie1988 said:I don't know why Contador doesn't try attacking earlier, like with atleast 10km left. This last 5KM stuff just isn't working, especially with an uphill sprinter like JRod.

Miburo said:I mean it's like purito knows what to do against Contador. And each time Contador gaps him I just feel purito is getting him back.
Tomorrow is insanely hard. Last climb is 20 km yes.
