Looking at the official Tour website (and PCS actually) can someone explain to me how Radioshack are leading the team classification despite Monfort being their best placed rider in 16th?
The team classification is not based on the time from the gc. The classification is based on the time of first three riders from the team in each stage.
Oh I see I thought it was the GC thanks

Wow, De Gendt crushed the time of Westra by 25" at first check.

De Marchi and Paulinho below Westra.
1-2 for Vacansoleil in a few minutes? |

Actually, De Gendt is probably becoming a great TT rider instead of going for GC riders like the Giro last season. Might become a Martin v2. |

He's like Moncoutié, albeit a worse climber. Great one day, useless the next.

Yeah, should be a good course for Peter, even more when first descend is very technical. I can see him attacking top15 again, if he is not taking it easy ofc.
Sagan said yesterday, he will be relaxing today...
I hope he goes full gas |

I love riders like De Gendt, great attacking riders and surprisingly good TT aswell! I don't know if anyone noticed, but yesterday he dropped out of the leading group like the first rider, but when they finished he was in the 3rd group, a real fighter! |

Hah a provisional 1-2 for VCD after all. Okay, not in the order we expected but still
Maybe Westra's time will be enough for a top 5-10. |

Froome really is turning into Armstrong. I thought it was a bit of a joke when he tweeted that Contador should've taken it easier yesterday, but after watching the interview with him, it appears he was serious.
Seriously, riders aren't allowed to attack him now?

Yesterday was third time Froome gave an obvious punch at Contador

Well I get what you mean, and of course Contador is allowed to attack, but he should never bring other riders in danger with his attacking. He could've swept Froome off of his bike and got him out of the Tour. (Maybe we would like it, but it's not right) |

Froome is free to let him go if he thinks Contador is taking risks. Nobody is forcing him to sit right on his wheel.
