I don't like what Cervelo are doing but this is the second stage where they have been very visible, the first time Cancellara made them stop and they missed out on alot, then today if Sastre waits the he can't catch the break, I guess the DS decided that once was enough

Please assume I am joking unless otherwise stated

Respect for Cervelo and Sastre is slowly going down the drain.

Finaly..I am on 3 week mission with that subject.
I've disliked Cervelo for a while. They have a few guys I like, but the people in the cars are idiots.
Can you explain theyr tactics today?
Attack after attack.to force peloton chase down breakaway ...to get points for Thor..? |

When it really counted. Like Spa, when everyone waited for Andy Schleck?

Sanchez does look hurt at his right arm/shoulder
I hope he can still be at his best at the final climb, but I doubt it |

Get Sastre a stage victory at any cost it seems.

Menchov was stupid..he did not atacked
Btw. Fair play prize go's for Rabo..stage 2. Miracle..where both Menchov and Gesink avoided crashing and would have taken few minutes advantage
Same stage..Cervelo but hammer down there. To get points for Thor..

I hope if it comes to it he does the sensible thing for his long term health, and drop out of the tour.

No. Andy Schleck's smaller group was behind the majority who crashed.
Plus, if nobody had waited for anyone, Schleck would have lost ground on all his rivals.

I just had a horrible thought. EBH is in the break. What if he wins on Tourmalet? Will we have to abandon this forum?

It's the Tourmalet - this break is doomed

There's no fu**ing way in hell Hagen can win this. If anything, Flecha will be better than him in the Tourmalet.
This said, if Hagen wins, I'll promise I'll eat my keyboard. It can't be much worse than all the crap I've been eating while camping. |

Sanchez seems to be allright, he is standing up with no trouble, so no fractures in arms or collarbone and most likely not ribs either. He seems to have hurt his shoulder though, but I doubt there is any fractures from the looks. |

Today its a group gesture, with andy it was a group gesture. In the mountains it was contadors decision and he took the wrong one. you dont act nice one stage and be a complete douche the next. I dont care what he does, its fair enough what he did in the mountains. But dont try to save your own skin when your already been planted as a coward. |

The effects of crashes are always worse two days later......what's in two days? Right. The TT.

He's just trying to out-douche Andy Schleck.
And failing.
He needs to take douchebaggery lessons from Grand Master Bettini.

No way this break gonna last till the finish. There's no decent climber in the break and yet Astana is in front to control the gap |
