Spilak slow. He just isn't in shape this season yet.

There are many contenders doing worse and he's not the leader here.
He's been a co-leader with Purito. I know some other contenders are doing worse but in this kind of TT he should be second only to Contador (and Quintana) if in great shape. I hope he brings his A game in Romandie.

Danish commentators thinks that Quintana did 29:11. They are completely confused that Contador beat him!

Now I actually think the TT in the tdf wont decide anything. Froome might still be better than Bertie and Quintana, but still the two just smash everyone else in a TT so they really don't have to worry. The ITT in the tour is maybe a bit flatter but still very hilly.

The tt's in pais vasco are always extremely technical. I dont think we can compare them.

I think (i repeat I THINK) that Contador has an advantage over Froome in a TT like this, but in the TdF it isn't comparable.
