With the depth of team that Quintana has relative to Dumoulin I'd be surprised if we don't see him going into Sunday's TT with five minutes on him.
@peter_v I don't think he's ever been frail mentally, it's just a question of his natural physique and the ability to sustain that climbing power over a 25/30km climb versus a 10km lump like today's. Think of the effort it took to get a very sickly looking Wiggo through the mountain stages of the Tour (also what we now know as kenacort assistance included) next to a very healthy looking Dumoulin too-I think you're more likely to see Kruijswijk and Pinot on the podium than him at the end of the week just because Tuesday will rinse him and then he won't have much of an opportunity to recover.
