Quintana is also saving himself for the TdF , looks like Contabeef has gotten it clear that he cant win TdF so his setup is different with a peak at Spain GC. |

Fair enough. Too bad for him but he'll win lots of races to come.
Gap should be enough to let Contador grant any possible breakaway riders the victory if they stay with him.

Nah wrong. Contador is riding TdF & Vuelta, Quintana Giro.

Contador is destroying them. What happens to him when he races with Froome. |

Hmm, ya thats right Quintana is going for the giro and not TdF this year, hmm, then this is even more strange.
Contador clean shouldn´t be able to distance Quintana like this on a climb unless Quintana doesnt care. |

Contador will still get destroyed.
Froome is on another doping planet then Contabeef. |

Can anyone see Kwiatkowski winning a Grand Tour?

Don't even think for a second TdF will be fun with Clentie in this form. One does not beat Froome.exe

Contador out of this world again. That's impressive. 
Hansen back with Contador.
EDIT: Horner apparently between Quintana Group and Kwiatkowski Group.

You meant lose, but loose is a good word. When Contador is in form, he's loose. He rides like this today. Comparable to his Vuelta win 2012. I think that could be a problem for Sky since Contador causes often for unexpected moments. Of course, Contador needs to be in top-shape for that.

He's opened another minute on the Quintana/Péraud/Pozzovivo/Nieve group....single handedly...on the flat

Contador has caught leaders. He will win this stage as long as 2nd (Quintana group) group does not catchup as last kilometer is more than 20%. |

Catch up? They're working together and losing ages of time on the flat. When they get to the climb they'll lose even more...

He is still young. In 4-5 years you never know. |
