Ugly wheelsucking win by Contador. Unfortunately
smart cool riding..he just did what he should..following Froome wheel. Ignoring Burito, Piti atacks. At the end it was just statement..you wont drop me with this attack..I will counter because I am the boss.

Nah today's for Conta outsprinting Froome on Ancares
Like I didn't say it
Where's Froome destroying Contador now. (no hard feelings)
Well, in the end it's a well deserved one for Pistolero. And very close to Herras' record now

Warren Barguil got sixth eh? Nice. G.Caruso, Sanchez, Navarro and D.Caruso round out the top 10 for the stage apparently.

Happy to see Samu finish 6th in the GC in the end... Probably the best he could hope for... Contador with a well deserved victory, doing what he had to, theres nothing wrong with wheelsucking...

Did I write that Contador should have taken over? Or that it is illogical that he rides this way?
No I didn't.
It's perfectly logical and he has every right to ride the way he does. It still doesn't mean I have to find that great and awesome and fantastic. I find that way of winning, staying in the wheel the entire time and then finally countering them close to the finish, when there is not muc hrisk anymore, boring, ugly, and I don't prefer it. Same way why I don't like Purito and Valverde much because 90% of their wins are in the same fashion. Some people love it, I despise it.
I understand riding like that when you are a leader, but that still doesn't mean I have to like it because it tactically makes sense.
In what way that deserves the title of being a troll, I have no idea. But that's Riis123 logic. He likes to insult people as soon as possible when he doesn't agree with their opinions
