Well I think he can take 2-3 minutes out of Quintana over the two time trials. He limited losses exceptionally well today on a climb that doesn't suit him at all, and is reputed to be the most difficult in the race. Stelvio stage looks tough but isn't a summit finish. Depends if he can hold this form into the 3rd week I guess.

here's to hoping you're right, much impressed with his performance today. Kruijswijk might improve as well in the 3rd week, but he'll be on his own again seeing how his planned mountain stages domestique Jurgen Van Den Broeck had to let go before Bram Tankink (old warrior and certainly not the climbing type) had to...

Why? He might have a stint in pink after the tt but have you seen the stage profiles of the 3rd week?
