and now Contador, he only needs to come to the finish within 2:40 of Levi.
the overall is his, I predict |

what a finish, the commentators are saying Levi may go for boni-seconds tomorrow but i doubt he'll want to take the TdF victory away from his own teammate
Cadel however may have a go

and now the controversial statement:
Contador wouldn't have won if Rasmussen wasn't here since he would have to attack alone 
EDIT: and I'd say 99% chance that nobody goes for bonus tomorrow

that's what i think, Levi and Cadel are old enough and experianced enough to let Conta have his glory i think, it was just the commentators that are a bit stupid, to be fair
i think Lance being in the team car helped Conta, i know it would help me, having a 7-time TdF winner shouting up your arse for you to win the TdF, that'd do the job

EDIT: or did you mean the bonus seconds?

actually they're not that stupid, they have just said they were talking about Levi trying to grab some boni-seconds to grab second
as there are 12seconds available before the champs-elysees

Levi said he isn't going to. says Evans is a much better sprinter than him |

not really. it'll end this way.
I'm interested to see if the protest is a go. but I doubt it. they won't be able to get everyone into it. |

i meant fun all the way until Champs, because that is when the sprinters get serious
should've explained better

fun especially if some adhere to the protest and others don't
that would be fun...crashes galore with some sprinting to the finish and other stopping just before it... |

Theres one flaw in Evans and Leipheimer supposedly going for bonus seconds ~ the green jersey isnt officially decided yet, so Hunter will do his best to get as many points as possible

aah yes Boonen has like a 34point lead and there are 35 at the finish or something similar, and if Hunter gets the 12 on the course then he could upset
although i think Hunter will not contest them because yesterday's stage where Boonen won the bunch sprint for 5th Hunter patted him on the back in a 'well done you've won the green jersey' kind of way
