I heard it too --- I didn't think of druggies, so much as they never had all the radio contact and info that they have now, so racing must have been edgier - and more demanding with regard to chasing down groups and not knowing exactly whrre everyone else is on the road .. surely that is also a factor in the modern game?

Was thinking the front runners looked a bit too strong to lose such a big chunk of time.
Pantano consistently has a few km/h on Zakarin, and is running about the same speed as the YJ group.

Domestique dropping his leader? That would never have happened in Wiggins' day...

Yeah, Zakarin is on the limit. He could blow up. The finish of this climb is particularly nasty...

Why is Quintana giving up even more time? Definitely finished unless something happens to Froome.
