Tour De France 2011

Contador looks happy just being able to stay with the other favourites, I can't see him having the legs to attack in the Alps, especially as it's rare for anyone's form to improve in the final week.

I also can't see Voeckler winning it but he'll be growing in confidence as each day passes with him in yellow, but even if he stays with everyone in the remaining mountain stages his time trialling isn't good enough to hold off someone like Evans over 42 kms.

It's an interesting race, no-one looks like they are yet prepared to gamble everything on a race winning attack, so none of the top 7 can be ruled out yet.

One way he could win it is if Contador remains off colour.
Contador might just be able to hang in, and just have enough strength to neutralize any attacks without being able to attack himself. That's the way he's been riding so far. If he keeps doing that, he'll be doing the watchdog job for Voeckler.
His other secret weapon is the truly awesome Pierre Roland. What a rider! He's reeling in any naughty riders, setting a blistering pace on the front, playing guardian angel for Voeckler. I'm loving the way two French lads have taken control of their own race, even if it might not last until Paris.

I honestly think this is the best edition of the Tour I've ever watched.
