Their next best rider yesterday was 30 minutes down. Astana will have a numerical advantage that's for sure.
I find mountain TTs impossible to predict, but usually the strongest climbers do well so Kruiswijk, Chaves and Nibali should do well today. I'd be surprised if someone else is in pink tonight. It sets it up nicely for the two Alpine stages at the end of the week.

Shame for him they don't have strength, wonder if we'll see him moving teams. He's provedhes strong and just needs a team behind him.
Yeah today will show how people's form really is. And yes, don't think pibk will change, he's got a decent gap to Chavez and even bigger to nibali. They will both need to work him over and to then crack him when he's isolated next week.

Watced the highlights. Amazing. Chavez wow.
Shame for the bmc guy, but racing racing.
Can't say I'm sorry for valverde.
Nibali is down but far from out.
Excited for today, the shark is a fighter.
And kreiswick (sp) are lotto strong enough to hold it, he's got a big time gap and looked strong. Really hope lotto can muscle.
