Contador was going to renew his contract, was he? I doubt it, now.
I don't think he cares, he will leave Astana |

sorry I lost some of the stage, how did the pack break like that?
The cobbles were causing splits, and then there was a crash involving Frank Schleck that tore it all apart
Thanks! |

Andy Schleck and Cadel Evans were great today. Big congrats to
Thomas (great talent) and Hesjedal. Where was EBH?
Very sad about Frank Schleck. That looked like dislocated shoulder or collarbone for me. And so far he didn't make the finish line so sad about that and very Unlucky Chavanel but on the other hand he was very lucky yesterday so fairly enough!
Got annyoed by Hushovd. HE DIDN"T WORKED AT ALL JUST SITTING AT THE WHEEL OF FABIAN AND WINNING A STAGE SO SELFISH ---,--- |

nice stage to watch, but it has been mostly a matter of bad and good luck rather than a question of skill.
Gaps are mostly due to punctures and falls... |

I agree, its funny how we find out all the random info like Shlecks injury and Contadors puncture on forums because the commentators wont find out for a few hours. And they just repeat themselves over and over, i know it comes with the job of cycling commentator but the random facts about how Hushovd can climb hills and how great Lance is... |

I must have missed something I saw him giving all he can to bring Contador as close as possible like the best teammate Contador could have... What's the problem?

When Contador punctured, Vino for whatever reason kept the pace high in the group in front. |

Which included rivals Menchov and Wiggins. |

Geraint Thomas didn't work either. Perhaps Thor didn't work because Sastre was behind? But seriously, it's pathetic to "hate" Thor because of this. |

As a norwegian, I have to defend "my" guys.
EBH was with Wiggins all the time to the last cobblestonesection, where he dropped back to Chavanel's group.
What should Hushovd done? What should all the other riders except Cancellara done? Just give away the stage win to Cancellara, because he did what he could to give time to A. Schleck? |

This is ridiculous he was the one leading the group for Contador nearly on his own for the last 30 km (seems like he was good enough to stay with the front group). After such a stage he may not have seen or heard Contador punctured and can you immagine working like that for someone for 30 km and leave him on purpose at the end. Anyway the puncture was close to the end Vino wouldn't have been much helpful at that moment. Maybe for 1-2 secs.
Vino was at the front of the group and Contador far at the end what could he doo.
I hate guys blaming Vino on whatever he does since he came back. (not talking to you Crue)

I really enjoy the work of Danish commentators Dennis Ritter, Jørgen Leth and Rolf Sørensen. The first is the commentator, Leth knows every anecdote and every area and building in France and Sørensen likes talking about him self (and how it is to ride in the peloton).
Also they seem to listen in on radio tours to get up to date quickly.
