Indeed lotto burning out legs way to early. But Greipel can manage alone also.
I don't know, they still have a heap of riders left and with the way this circuit is then controlling it makes sense. Even if another team takes it up then as long as Greipel has one left then he will be fine
yep but is hard to control a sprint 15km. ..even 3km is hard enough. Highroad was 3km. mark sprint train team
Still have 5 riders!!!

Lotto knew how to ride that circuit perfectly, take control straight away and not let any other team get a position

Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

He made a couple of mistakes but that's inexperience and only having 1 rider to look after him isn't ideal but it was always going to be tough when up against a sprinter/team like Greipel and Lotto

I didn't know that about Ullrich in 1999 but I always thought that the Ullrich/Rijs situation in 1996 was similar to that with Froome/Wiggins in 2012.
Ullrich says the rivalry was made up by the media.
in the 1997 tour chapter of his book he tells the story of the first mountain stage. he was still thinking he would be working for riis, so on the last climb he asked if he should pull the group and then riis would attack. riis said no no you attack, you show them you deserve to be the leader |

And that's Greipel done for the race, he almost looked disappointed to say he was going home

Ewan should continue, 2 chances left without Greipel and Kittel. |
