Tour de France - Stage 19 - SPOILER

[VamP]

TV has blown but he can still be proud of his efforts in this tour!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's like the understatement of the year!

 

[VamP]

Sanchez has caught the lead group on the descent, that's some serious skills!

 

[yello]

Are he and Contador going to have a go again?

 

[VamP]

Are he and Contador going to have a go again?

I would guess so. Sanchez will be looking for a stage win at least as a consolation prize.

 

[RedRider]

Are he and Contador going to have a go again?

Contador has to go again if he has the strength. Frandy also need more time from Evans who has to catch up and hang in there.

Incredible to see TV's anger and frustration at his own body's failure to keep up with his desire.

Write off Tommy at your peril.


He's got three teammates pulling him along, and he's recovered 30 seconds of his time loss!

Cadel to make contact near bottom of the Alpe ? The Yellow jersey gap is coming down too.. What's AS/AB and SS got in their legs..

 

[meenaghman]

There's a bit of a climb and then a drop down into Bourg...

 

[Crackle]

What a chase, Voeckler might get back here but will he stay there on the climb: Fantastic!

And it's downhill at the moment. The guy's looked stuffed to me. I doubt there's much left in those legs when it starts to climb again!

My head says you're right, my heart disagrees...

 

[yello]

Right, here we go. All back together, back to evens. I think there's going to be some ripped up legs in 13km time.

 

[yello]

Poor guy is struggling. It's over for TV

Contador's away... a last dash?

 

[Crackle]

Commercial break, grrrrrr.......

Andy Schlek looks done, this could be interesting.

 

[biking_fox]

All back together, back to evens

What was the point of bertie spending all that energy not to get a gap at the bottom - just to try and wear the others out a bit? Surely Frank will have the freshest legs now, as he cruised in with the pack?
