How did you come up with that? They were one of the teams who tried to bring it back. Can hardly say they bottled it.
Well as far as I was aware, everyone was on s.t.
Surely if Garmin bottled the yellow jersey, then so did every other team but Radioshack?
As far i as i understood, Bakelants will be in yellow. And not same time, i think its quoted as +1 sec. |

Cadel Evans in 10th, I think he could surprise everyone for a podium spot this year.

Yeah, I'm sure it must've been absolutely exhausting for him sitting in the peloton preparing for the sprint.
Don't bring back the Norwegian fanboy nonsense. EBH didn't do any work for Froome today.

Radioshack in yellow YES!
Glad im not the only one thrilled to death about this!
Since I started watching cycling in 2010, Saxo bank,(Leopard Trek) and Radioshack have been my favorite teams. Love seeing them in yellow.

It would be nice to see Sky do some kind of leadout or give him some help. |

Cadel looks very good. Not surprising at all really.

2 years ago, the team TT was already done, so it had more significance than it has this year already. |

About the team TT,
Other than Sky, who has a good chance of winning the stage, or riding well for the gc contenders?

If you count Hesjedal, then Garmin may have a good shot? Evans and TVG with BMC too. Movistar with Valverde for sure. There are more, but I can't remember now |

This is the last time I belive Rein Taaramäe is going to do well at a Grand Tour
Jérôme Coppel and Romain Sicard were supose to become Tour de France winners any time soon... Im still waiting, even Any Schleck is doing better
Thomas De gendt how can he goes from a podium at Giro to climb even worse than Degenkolb??? |

Sicard ? His development margin was quite limited from the start, no matter how good he managed to become during one or two seasons in Spain... |

Dude it's been years. You know very well you can tell everyone here what you know about Sicard without ever being sued

Unless he changes his nationality to British and starts winning every sprint he participates in, that's not going to happen.
He has known from the start of the season that Sky's goal at the Tour is overall victory. If he wants to go, he'll be forced to work for Froome.

Dont read too much into the attack by Froome-Bot today.It was just a stunt.Just to make ppl think Team SKY will be different and more aggressive in approach.Come TT Sky will have to decent lead and will look to defend the position.
Froome-Bot only attacks in the final few metres to win a stage if he desires to.Get ready to see the dreaded Sky Train come the Mountains.
May be he was trying to send a msg to all saying that he can descend well unlike Wiggins.

I still can't believe how Bakelandts managed to take those last couple of turns without crashing
