Interesting to follow Contador today. Normally he would be the first to follow Froome`s attack where he would have broken and lost a lot of time, such as Quintana did. But today he set his own pace and drove the others back in. However, he obviously lacks a part, though he did better than he used to.

Guys new TDF drinking game. Every time Phil Ligget says "Richie Froome" has done something, take a drink.
that would mean that I need to watch him to begin with. that's a nobody wins situation.
Will say, Phil aside, I think the NBC package here in the US is really good this year. They don't act like every one of us is watching a bike race for the first time anymore. I like Bob Roll and Christian VdV, the in studio interviews have generally been good, they have taken on the controversies directly and Jens is always entertaining. Now if they could get Phil to retire (I don't mind Paul), then we would be good to go.

I think Phil and Paul are kind of iconic as commentators, but they are clearly past it.
Really amazing stage i think that Aru is an incredible cyclist and how many emoctions watching him I remember the greatest Vincenzo tour in 2014 and i believe in Aru, I think h can beat the english man see you to sunday with GC men.
tbf 2014 was with multiple climbs in Vosges. ASO disrespecting Vosges this year
And in rain all day with a very hard tempo (was also hard tempo yesterday tho). Nibali had went faster, Im pretty sure. Aru was pretty strong tho, but who remember Nibali making Nieve look like an amateurish 3rd tier rider on Hautacam??
