Is there any mileage to the theory that Majka going up the road this early on in the tour is a sign that Saxo are already writing off Contador? Seems weird for such an important domestique to already be stage chasing...
Seems quite smart to me. Letting Majka go up the road means they don't have to control the bunch all day to protect yellow, and can save the rest of the team for the finale to support Contador. Also means that Majka might close some of the gap on GC.
