Really poor waiting again because he won't take López with him. Quintana doesn't deserve to win riding like this all the time.

Quintana is one of those riders with so much natural talent but with a tactical mind so poor that it costs him races.

Can’t stand Simon Yates

I want to love Quintana, really, but Yates rides the way I want Quintana to ride. He waits for the opening and goes for it.

I just don't understand Quintana.

Love the cooperation between Valverde and Quintana there. Valverde might've cost Nairo a valuable 10 seconds there.

Yates is a 800m specialist, not my style of rider

Quintana is pathetic. MAL should just ignore him and do his own thing.
Surely its the other way round. MAL was the stronger rider, and should have won the stage. But he didn't attack just follwed, refused to work with Quintana and ultimately ended up second but still with enough strength to outsprint Valverde. :eek:

Yates continues his great season. Another great ride. Why was Lopez holding? Very strong ride today and he should attack more often. Quintana just gives up every time when he gets away.

Quintana was stupid, but Lopez even more so. Just ride with Quintana a bit, and he would've outsprinted him. Mind-bogglingly dumb.

Yeah he attacked once from 15km out, but his nature is to wait until
