I really don't get this. We've got an isolated Froome and yet everyone is doing these half-hearted attacks. There is a pretty decent chance that this will be the only time we'll see him so isolated.

Rodriguez is really Mr. Invisble this year. Disappointing.
His form was nowhere before the Tour, so just wait for the third week, when he comes into his own. |

Not going is good. Let Froome lead the chase
Chase who, 15th overall Martin?

There's still a descend. Valverde and Contador know Froome's descending capabilities. |

Still far,but good.
I dont get Saxo though...
Contador is all that matters to them, and he's suffering.
When did Contador start to struggle this much in the mountains?
But ya Contador is gone. |

And Schleck is actually climbing pretty good.
Martin and Fuglsang can go to the summit.

Apparently Movistar don't even want a stage win for Valverde. Ridiculous

I would agree, if it were attacks, This is just 25% accelaration. Maybe they can kill him in descend though, Kreuziger and Contador descend better than Froome.

Well sure, but they've totally threw away the chance to bonk Froome and put some daylight into him.

In the past, a steak powered Contador would have gone off the front with someone like Quintana by now...
