how did Kangert manage to finish so high? Wasn't he dropped early before the Uran attack and when Agnoli was still working hard for Nibali?
He was. I'm guessing he had a bad moment earlier on the climb, recovered and paced himself to the top.

Seems Gesink did really evolve to a worse climber after leg break. Seems pretty definite. He'll have to contend with lower top 10 placings in GT's, or become a super dom.
Wiggins and Scarponi did only seconds better, but they are old. All the new guys, Gesink can't keep up with them.
Nibali has this under control. I don't think Evans can damage him. Maybe Uran.. but Brailsford seemed almost dissapointed he won, it's all about Wiggins... |

Kangert time is weird yes..Same time Agnoli who did amazing job today..he also feeded Kangert and lost over 8 min. at the end. Like Kangert would have ride just for himself. |

Sick or completely out of form, by the looks of it.

Ryder Hesjedal, you have failed yourself, your team, and your fans.

In the fantasy game I'm participating in (no transfers allowed), I have Wiggins and Hesjedal as my two expensive captains ... I doubt I'm going to win 
Great racing, though, although it looks like an impossible mission to beat Nibali now. |

Of course I'm still rooting for him, but I can't help being disapointed in his GC attempts.

Better than the UK reaction to Wiggins which is just flat out denial that anything is wrong at all. I mean how could it be, he is a Knight of the Realm and out savior from the Europeans

He was, but from memory, came back into the group and did some pacemaking for a bit. |

Think he means Kangert, but the person who did that was Agnoli

Does anyone think Wiggins is now out of contention? He seems out of it. I'm liking Evans for the podium...for the first time in history.

Why? What does he possibly need a rest for?
