2017 Paris Nice 5-12 March

['Dale]

20.5km remaining from 115.5km

 

Contador's tempo has burned off everyone bar David De La Cruz (Quick-Step) and Marc Soler (Movistar) and his gap over Henao is out to 54 seconds. Remember, he began the day only 31 seconds off Henao's overall lead.

Damn I love Contador! C'mon Go Go Go!!!!!

[HappyMartin]

Martin always seem to have a few matches left. He doesn't have matches now I think of it. More like a zippo. Shake it a few times. Rub it on your jeans. Give it a flick. Hey one more flame.

[Cav']

Henao should fade soon

Porte should chill the F out.

Porte should chill the F out.

He's like a bull terrier

His attacks are draining the other GC chasers

 

Berto is tempo'ing which is better for the long-range business

['Dale]

66 secs ????????????

[Cav']

1km to the summit Bert and the other 2 will have to work together.

[HappyMartin]

This Trek kit looks good. And with that white bike. Sweet.

[Gen]

Hope Bert has enough left to take it to the line with enough time to take GC

 

Man what a racer

[Cav']

It's going to come down to a few mere seconds.

['Dale]

De La Cruz gives Contador a turn on the front for the first time. Quick-Step's thoughts have turned to the stage win rather than a Dan Martin overall win.

['Dale]

Julian Alaphilippe attacks from the yellow jersey group, but again Henao is able to follow and bring him to heel.

It's going to come down to a few mere seconds.

Like 2016

Porte should chill the F out.

Don't think so. If Contador wins the overall race I'm guessing he'Ll thank Porte for the attacks on Henao. Looks like a couple more to come.

Contador does look good, doesn't he, for someone supposed to be past his prime. Brilliant racer
