Millar can loose by 5 seconds to Schumacher and claim yellow

Millar 15secs back at the 2nd check, very hard to pull that time back, but it's do-able.

Devolder is waaaaaaay above Cunego
But Devolder has been sick and had fever on sunday, so that explains his lesser performance today.
I'm not a Devolder fan, but saying he is only just a bit better than Cunego is laughable. And Andy Schleck is nowhere near Devolders level in time trials. |

Evans 2nd
He went really fast the last half of the stage.

Valverde might just finish behind Sastre

Millar hopefully can hang on to 2nd, very unfortunate for him to perform so well, to be beaten by a German who had no right to even finish in the top 5.
Still, I should take some good from it, by the fact my prediction of a suprise winner was right.
Is Schumacher in yellow I suppose? The Eurosport commentators said they thought it would be tight between Millar and Evans for yellow, but I couldn't remember how Schumacher was in the GC before this stage...
EDIT: Stupid Kirchen:x

Thanks for the link back there, I tried it but it didn't worked probably because the stage ended. I'll try again tomorrow. |

Great ride by Millar. If only ASO had listened to Quick Step in the buildup when they asked why Schumacher can ride when Boonen was not allowed.

I'm leaving a scathing comment for the future in case the forums ever resume normal functionality: Vogondy deserved to win.

A truly awesome sprint from Mark 'you know' Cavendish.

Mark Chavendish. Im not french or anything, but such willpower displayed by Vogondy deserved to be rewarded. Like seriously.
EDIT: I would love to see the top 3 for the green jersey in Paris be Hushovd > Zabel > McEwen.

Vogondy was rewarded, with a Combativity prize.
But what a sprint today

I think there is no-one who can possibley doubt Cav now, great sprinting. His team is aweseome and I love his character
In the post-race interview he was talking about how great the team was and said something like 'Oh yeah the team is great, you know, and it's great coz there aren't any ego's you know, even though there are some big stars, you know. Well ok I have an ego, an I know people will laugh at me for that, you know'
Interviews with him are great
