I liked seeing how happy he was after the stage, it was a great performance which he fully deserved to win, and he's a nice guy so I'm pleased for him.
It hasn't really livened up the race for GC though.
Although, on the plus side, with his closest challenger two minutes away, it does mean that anyone who wants to be in with a shot will have to go for broke and try something hugely audacious, which seems to be what Contador has been trying to do.
I find Contador a lot less likeable and deserving than Froome, but I'd like someone to try and justify him being less exciting a rider to watch.
