Frank needs to win at least 2 min for the TT.
I think it's too risky. Contador and Andy will have to attack and Evans just do what he do best, stick at other's wheels. |

I don't think Voeckler will lose it tomorrow - i reckon the favourites will take it easy.

Best stage so far. Andy gets punished for his stupid tactics in the Pyrenees.

I really hope so, but he already said his legs were painful on sunday, and todays stage was really made for him, it fitted perfectly with his type of rider and he still lost time on Evans-Contador. I think he is starting to get tired it's going to be really hard tomorow...
Team Europcar !!
RIP Wouter

The Norwegians will be insufferable.
However the Schleck fans will be ridiculed. That's a good thing |

With Contador back on fire, I'll be surprised if he manages to take it "easy" on Thursday. |

DAMN, DAMN, DAMN! What?.. Norwegian 1-2.. OMG, NOT please again!
Evans gaining time?! WTF? This wheelsucker can suddenly attack? I don't get it!
Contador had steak or something, he maybe only bluffed in Pyrenees.. I expected something like this after what he said yesterday..
Damiano is slowly preparing to completly crack in Alpe d'Huez, sadly.
Frank won't win this, but he is now at least leader..
Ivan isn't made for this stages, sadly again..
And Andy.. At least he will ride for Frank fully, hopefully..
And my great-grandmother died. 
WHAT A HORRIBLE DAY TODAY!

That stage was MUCH longer, though. Also Andy is scared of tomorrow's descent. He says it is inconceivable that ASO has included it.

He's a great wheel sucker, and a wonderful "last 3 km" attaker.
I don't say that to underate him. You need a superb mental skills to be cold blooded in that situations. |

I'm not looking at the climbs for gaps...I'm looking at tomorrow's descent

I really wonder how close the GC could have been with Gesink, Wiggins, VdB and Vino still on the field. |
