Can Tony take polka dots jersey today?
No he can't, Kadri and De Marchi will be tied once De Marchi crosses in 2nd
So much bullshit 
Stop being a vibe killer and learn to read the thread, strydz has already corrected his mistake, and besides - who cares about some little misinformation?

Are you kidding? 30+ minutes pr. mountainstage?
He was recently 27th in the Dauphine, losing 24 minutes on Talansky. There he was a helper for van den Broeck.
He lost 1 minute on the first mountainstage that was won by Froome, he lost 4½ minute on the second mountainstage (3 minutes on the favorites). Had he not lost 12 minutes on the final stage, where he sat up, he would have been around 20th GC, with several riders similar to what is present at the Tour.
Also he was 10th at the Paris-Nice, which was not quite as mountainous, but still more than just "punchy".
Gallopin clearly won't be a threat to the GC, but giving him the yellow jersey could mean that he will stay somewhere aroung top 15 imo.
Yes I am serious. Paris-Nice was not more than a punchy race, look at the route and you will see no mountains whatsoever, Rojas finished 4th overall, Vichot in 3rd. The Dauphine is not raced the same as a GT and yes he did well but still lost 12 minutes on the last stage and 24 in total and it is a 1 week race. He is a talented rider but yellow or not he will lose a huge amount of time and won't finish top 20, he will try and defend the jersey and by the time the real mountains come he will be running on empty.
Which stages do you consider real mountainstages? Just so I can throw it back at you once they are ridden

Wrong Tony Martin has 18
The others are Kadri 17, De Marchi 17, Edet 12 and Purito 11
So next time check your facts mate. |

When Germany win the World Cup, Low will say they 'watched Martin win to build team spirit'. Fantastic rider.

Agree, it was a zzzz and Astana i hope won't succeed in getting Lotto to help them tomorrow.
I almost wish Gallopin now would prove to be a insane climber and would drive it home to paris. |
