Well whatever happens - Saxo and OPQS get a lot of credit for actually doing some proactive and attacking racing. They get a huge thumbs up from me - what cycling should be about 
You are clearly forgetting about the Belkin guys who indeed also were proactive |

I don't understand why team not wanting to give 5 minutes to Contador and Fuglsang is bad tactics.
You dont understand that teams that have nothing to go for and will loose that time in the mountains anyways dont want to loose it?
Come on you cant be serious.
BMC and Katusha had nothing to fear, its not like Evans or Rodriguez can take enough time to get back into the race and go for a win against Froome.
There are only one person who can compete with Froome and thats Contador.
Wrong. The only rider that probably can match Froome up a mountain in this Tour is Quintana. |

Odds of Contador suddenly being the old Contador for the third week?

Well I turned on the TV 10k to go today, assuming it would be another boring flat stage. Now I'm pretty annoyed I missed it all, had to do a quick read through the thread to figure it all out. Sounds like a fantastic one.

No, I mean what actually happened. Andy and Cancellara gaining two minutes in the first week attacking after his brother crashed Contador. 24 hours after Andy was 8 minutes down and the peloton stopped to wait for him.
Just as a comment to this, wasn't the stage Andy crashed actually the stage before the cobble stage and not the one after?  |

Mollema: "we only heard Valverde was behind, we only heard later it was something with his bike. But Valverde shouldn't complain about unfairness. He's been unfair in the past"

He said coz Peli said Froome to jump from 2nd group to Saxo group and to attack again and win the stage, then he said hes gonna eat his shoe if that happens

Froome hesitated and checked his radio it seems, and then it was too late.

Great intervieuw with Cav on him nearly missing the good echelon. Hi already did a sprint at that time apparently, Froome in his wheel, wasn't able to follow  |

Most likely the plan was that Kwiatek opened the gap to drop Greipel. |

Agreed. That is up till last week. But now it has all changed. Some people are back in form, some have lost it.
We all know Contador has won Grand Tour 5 times (or 7 times- way you see it). If somebody knows how to win its definitely him. And he knows all the tactics
Belkin and TST have KREUZIGER and TEN DAM in top 5 and can use strategically against Froome.
Froome might be strong but 1 man does not win TdF, team does. |
