That is not important imo, if they will get back they will be empty. While whole Saxo is resting...
It is important cause Froome would have teammates to bring him water, to give him a wheel if he punctures...

Trust me, it would take a book. I'm not exaggerating.
I guess the bare basic to know is all Skys are a million miles behind except Froome and everyone went apeshit attacking at all times.

It's difficult to explain it briefly. So many things have happened. |

Yeah, but dead teammates. But of vcourse it will be better for us Froome not likers if they will never make it.

If Froome is still in yellow after today, or if the gap isn't down to 10sec., Movistar and Saxo should go home and feel ashamed.
There's a fine line between "psychotherapist" and "psycho the rapist"

Sky has blown up completely. Kennaugh crashed. Porte is having a very bad day. Froome is isolated, while Contador and Valverde still have many domestiques left. Lots and lots of attacks sinds the start of the stage. Things seem to have finally settled down a bit. |
