Martin and Talansky just arrived. I had expected much more from Martin, but Talansky once again proves he is severely overrated.
Expected timeloss for Contador when they decided to race it like this. Quintana on par, Valv a little more than expected, Froome was just a god today. This was what happened in 2013, Quintana was over 5 minutes behind at that point, only 3 now. Only rider who stands a chance. Also Gesink, what a performance! |

Good point. When Froome attacked, I stopped watching, only hearing commentators. At least Armstrong was exciting, when Froome and Skybots are boring. |

It looked like Martin was waiting for Talansky early on.

+1, I know right. Outside of the Froome result I would have called them crazy too.

Ha, this forum is great.
If you guys honestly believe that Sky are doping and absolutely none of the other contenders (TJ, Quintana, Contador, Nibali etc.) are then you're crazy.
The fact that young riders like Yates are getting up there in high positions makes me hopeful that it's pretty clean. |

It is not normal by weak climber to become super climber Froom.
Just look at its stand. HE DID NOT BECOME pedal. IT IS NOT NORMAL.
There is no logical pedaling technique. |

He hasn't looked good upto today so today just confirmed he isn't in top condition, but in saying this the rest day always throws up odd performances the day after so I think it explains why some riders were so poor and others like Thomas, Gallopin, Gesink were strong. Things will change with the next mountain stages

I told you dance in place..but I act nicely. It is damn hard to win Giro and TdF at the same year..
This will stay at 90's ..and beginning. Pantani 1998 was lucky.. |

Tried to tell you that on Huy matey, you just dont lose 18 seconds on 400 meters + having a hard Giro in the legs. I think, deep down, he know that. It seems so obvious now, but when Conta obviously was in his prime in 2011 and he got distanced by Evans (not Quintana and Froome who arguably are better climbers), you cant do that on the end of your career. At 100%, I think it was over anyways, so still wise to do the Giro and at least get that imo. Could very well podium without the Giro in the legs, he still can, but... meh. |

This reminds of how defensive the first mountain stage of the tour used to be. Then, Sky happened.

I don't really think many on here are saying the others are clean
