Thor Hushovd, thats a surprise. Again. But he also had it too easy on the last climb, bad tactic by Evans. 
What was a bad tactic by Evans? He got into third place on the stage and made an attack when Contador and Schleck were trying to mark each other.
Yeah but it was too late.
Earlier than that and he probably wouldn't have been able to stay away.

But it always happens to him. He should give up on GTs and focus on stage races that are less nervous. Romandie, Suisse, Pologne etc...
Let Mollema or Kruijswijk be the leader next year.
You can't count on gesink |

Yep by 55" over Taaramae and 1'20" over Jeannesson, who is having a pretty consistent solid ride.

It's seems like Evans lost all his bad luck(so far in this TDF), and Gesink got the bad luck of both of them.. Sucks. I had high hopes for him this year..

I think the bad luck went Radioshacks way. Just waiting till Klöden hits a dog or something and breaks his funnybone.
