Pfft Gesink, Contador and Brajkovic down and Leopard (among others probably) up the pace of the peloton. Recalling last year's stage 3, I think this is just poor sportsmanship. |

Leopard, wat an antisocial team. If the Schlecks in the group behind the peleton, Canc tells the peleton to stop. If Contador and Gesink are behind the peleton, Canc and co. go to the front and start riding. Can't believe it. |

Leopard is in the front of the peloton but only team who has paced from Contador's crash was Garmin!

It seems like they're accelerating on the hills.. probably to make it more difficult for cav |

but tempo is hard enough for their opponents to fall left and right everywhere |

Garmin is pacing because there is a quite strong wind today, about 30 km/h, so there is some chance that the peloton will split today, plus the roads are quite narrow today, so there is quite strong possibility of some falls too (and we already had some)..
