Can't remember that a team started pacing after the race leader crashed. |

I've lost all respect for Sky because of this. Horrible move.

Froome and Rodriguez are in the first group. I haven't seen Contador.

Theres a good chance Clentie was involved too knowing the fact Valve was and 2 Saxo riders involved. So Clentie was around too |

Katusha are just as bad as Sky here, but would you rather they slow down and wast an opportunity for echelons? |

It's not like their pacing for minutes, it'll be more difficult to stop, then. |

The crash happened because they started pacing.
Doesn't mean they don't have to stop though.

There is a Saxo Bank rider in the first group. That must be Contador, or else he would drop back and help... |

The thing is that there's no reason they should stop.
