PS:This is what happens when you put a TT after the mountains
The climbers just look at each other and get afraid of losing to each other and the TTists take the advantage.The remaining stages are not hard.
The TTs should be put before the mountains to make for exciting racing.
The Vuelta really isn't finished yet. Where Purito and Aru can gain time?
In stage 18, 19 and 20, they can gain some time.

2012 Contador proved that it isn't over until the podium and 2010 Contador proved that it maybe not be over after that and 2005 Armstrong proved it might not be over until 8 years later.
I forget what point I was making Rodriguez and Aru don't have the mentality of Contador.And the gradients ofthe remaining climbs suit Dumoulin almost as much as pure climbers like Aru or Purito.Plus the stages are ending with descent finishes.On stage 20 there is a 7km flat section after the Cotos where Dumoulin will close the gap easily |

In stage 18, 19 and 20, they can gain some time. Paul and DiCyc:The problem is that the remaining stages are not hard enough to crack Dumoulin |

because the whole team of Astana is weaker than Dumoulin alone?

Well, let's just accept the fact that the climbers has failed this Vuelta, anyway the Tour isn't over yet. The fight is still on.
