<3 Levi! Popo was awesome, Contador was disapointing. I still think it was a mistake to kill the team for Contador. Despite having to ride for contador i think Levi has the experience and the ability that can only come from having ridden the tour many times. That experience and ability that contador still has to build up. I think that Rasmussen has it won unless he does absolutly terrible in the TT (totaly possible) Great second place for levi. Hopefully he can make the podium come sunday |

Contador lost 1:04 on Evans on the other TT. this second TT is flat. maybe he can do it, maybe he can't.
but he probably can't, since the yellow jersey gives a rider a huge boost. |

no time bonuses are readjusted
from the moment that the results are made official for a stage, nothing can be changed. the exception are the final classifications. individual stages cannot be changed.
I know it's stupid but it's Tour regulation |

a Time Trial should be changed. Then you don't have to see how the others race... |

It doesn't give a boost if you didn't earn it but recieved it because of another riders abandon... it wouldn't gimme a boost ... |

if they will stop broadcasting will hurt the teams because their comercial rights and that's a good think if they will hurt the teams and they will loose like 1-2 milions euro they will start to clean theyr rosters

Thats what i think:
No broadcasting = not wanting to be seen = no publicity = no doping
But thats not realistic...I love cycling to much to miss it! |
