And they have shown Zabel some mercy.. missed time cut by officially 5 sec but he is incl in official stage results.

 

I am genuinely happy for him he probably spent a good part of today babysitting Kittel and then left him at some point when it was clear Kittel wouldn't make it.

Well he didn’t abandone. He showed respect and rode the stage.

Yeah so did Kittel.

Think Renshaw climbed in the car

 

Edit

 

Sorry Renshaw.. he finished 44min after cut off

I would finish 24 hrs after the cut. These guys are simply crazie!

Sooo, is it too early to call it a 2 horse race?

Or is the race over, with Thomas doing a "team orderd" mechanical to let Froome win?

 

It remains to be seen what intensity Dumoulin & Froome can produce in the 3d week.

Some of the other contenders are still in contact with Froome, but they looked pretty meek (except for Martin and Bardet) today.

I dont like Valv.Piti, but respect for the attack. Quintana is back to following wheels.... cant the read him"Do not go gentle into that good night" from the team car ?

Have to agree with you. DD made a bad call to include him in this years tour after the trouble he has had. Never ready imo and today showed that. His attitude reflects badly on DD. Hope that's the end of his involvement with the team.

 

They based the entire team around him.

I am not sure if i like one team mate up the road and his team mate chasing him down.[emoji848]

 

I know it is for time gain but it doesn't sit that lekker with me.

 

Gutted for Nieve

you thinking of froome and thomas? with thomas in the lead and his penchant for crashing, dare they take a chance? you never know. if something goes wrong and sky left time on the road, they'd look like thickies. i think brailsford will tell us it's a race, not a coffee ride
