FFS the way they are going on, you'd think Froome was going out the back door, not matching pace in 3rd/4th.
Quintana to attack? Cant see anyone else getting away from Froome, not at this pace.
I know, as it stands Froome will be delighted riding one set tempo. The Vuelta showed you have to crack him by short sharp bursts repeatedly. Silly tactics from Movistar.
Here come the stop go attacks now, far too late IMO<br /><br />-- Sun Jul 07, 2013 2:32 pm --<br /><br />Saxo to the front to calm things, Contador feeling this more than the others??

Martin looks strong up there, hopefully he'll finish it off.Shands said:Well it promised much but delivered little. Credit to Quintana again but the spaniards have missed a golden opportunity here. Well done to Froome too. Now hold on Dan!

Kiriyenka missed the time limit apparently and is eliminated.
Loved the racing today. Watched from the off and i thought it was fascinating from start to finish. Nice that Dan Martin won he and Garmin deserved the win today.
Kiriyenka is a huge loss to Sky, especially with G and Stannard carrying injuries and with Kennaugh getting knocked down that hill into the bushes. What a surreal moment that was. Hope he is OK otherwise Froomey will have little support left although today he was magnificent i thought.
