a bit of a sting in the tail. froome/valverde surely need to attack if they have any ambitions on the overall win.

Hmmm Saturday will be the day i think, untill then Froome and Valverde will be marking each other like flies on cow pooh.

 

Mind you, the way Froome has been riding this tour he might well try close the gap a bit....every second counts

Hope MTNQ can get into the break.

It'll stand a good chance, I reckon.

It'll be a mellow bunch in the break as the GC big guns might be chilling until the big one on Sat.

 

Then again, this is the Vuelta.

Anything can happen!

After the success of that green wild card team at the Grio with 3 stage wins if i remember correctly, i cant help but feel that MTNQ really need a victory here if they what to secure future grand tour participations.

For comparison:

 

164 made it to Paris (Tour)

156 made it to Trieste (Giro)
