Ok dude I know nothing.
I watched bits of it (windowed) so wasn't with it all the time.
Come on down now.

Nah, andyp is right all day long. Also, if you wanna throw crap analysis into the thread where we armchair analyse all day long expect to get called out.
Great racing on both fronts. Great stages too. Feel like I've got my Eurosport value for money already!

All you need to do is suck Andy's wheel when it comes to racing knowledge. We all do. :)

Do you actually understand racing tactics? The 'no-pull wheelsucker' from QuickStep (not Astana) had been in the break all day, and was there to help out if his team leaders bridged across to him late in the day. He sat on Contador because the latter was threatening his team mates' GC position, so his job is to stay with him and win the stage if they stay away to compensate for the loss of GC position. Which he did. It's notable that Contador, who had done all the work, had no complaints whatsoever as he understands how it works.
