Still a great win for Sastre
Andy was great today, he had to be very defensive though

1'30 to Evans for Sastre in the classement.
And yes, once again, I had hoped for more on yesterday's stage and on the 2nd mountain today. It still seems like it's too late by now, but that said, it was an amazing victory today.

1'30 is nowhere near enough but hopefully he will get a podium. A podium is still a big ask, but fairly doable

Valverde simply isn't as good as you think
Do you not think if he had the legs he would go for it?

Okay... how much better at the TT is Vandevelde over Schleck and Kohl? Could he gain 3 minutes on either of them to sneak into the top 5, or is it too much to ask.
Shame about the crash yesterday for him... he'd be in the running otherwise and a good bet for a podium (behind Evans and Menchov). |

Tomorrow, A. Schleck's last job for the team will be to crash into Evans. |

At times, I'd say Vandevelde is better than Evans. |

about the same as Evans, but slightly less. Top 5 for Menchov is all he can hope for.
