No I meant the attack slightly earlier Obviously bonuses could do something if he has a good day/Uran has an off one.

Only possible, when he has a Valverde TT...or for everyone who didn't watch stage 1, he needs to wear a LottoNL jersey for the TT to screw it up.

Sucks for Bardet and Uran that there weren't (m)any summit finished and even fewer ones with decent build-up

Yes, but atleast 2nd and 3rd place and top 5 there don't mean THAT much as in TDF so you normally see fighting for win no matter what. And not like TDF where they are happy with top 3, top 5 and some even top 10 so they think not worth to attack and then maybe lose your top 3/5/10... |

Uran uran the most non attacking rider on the podium since Wiggins?

Meanwhile Benoot will probably finish top 20 in his first Tour. Not bad for a classics rider |

I really dont understand why TDF is bigger then giro and vuelta... And no, I dont mean because of the media, money and everything like that. But for many cycling fans that follow the entire season why is TDF what they look most forward to... |

Seriously google Wiggins attack and it's either Roubaix or occasionally Froome doing it for him

Yep, and that's probably never gonna change. I also haven't enjoyed the Tour as much as the other GTs for years. |
