Chain gate was what, 40 seconds?
Current gap, 10 seconds.
But you'd have to figure in that if chaingate didn't happen, Contador would have probably attacked on the Tourmalet. It's impossible to blame a GT on one incident like that, changed the race.

Yes, all those what ifs would have changed the race completely. |

Don't forget Cancellara said, save something for the final 7km, thats where a lot of time can be made.

Nope, he's losing quite a bit to Sánchez at check 2

If Schleck keeps the pace, he'll hold onto second. If he continues to slow down with the negative progression he's shown so far, he'll lose 2nd to Menchov

none at all? Nope, no way. I'm not a fan of TT's, but they are a part of racing.

That would mean, since Schleck and Contador both had stages where they put 10 seconds on the other, the only stages that mattered this year for yellow were cobbles and the chain problem. |
