    Down from 4.10, they need to pull it in sharpish before the final climb and the run for home after the Urkiola at 138km leaving them nearly 50km to go, If Froome can get a couple of guys to help up the final climb and try to shake Cobo, he might just be able to get to the finish line for some time bonus and grab the win

    Could beat this

    Smallest margin of victory: Eric Caritoux over Alberto Fernández in 1984, 6 seconds

    Also, looks like Moncoutie will take his 4th mountains jersey in a row

    Ok my mate has just arrived
    Ok my mate has just arrived with a FLASK of starbucks white chocolate mocha, dont you just love her 😀 i’m 45 miles from my nearest starbucks

    Seems i picked the wrong riders from the right teams

    151 Barredo (ESP, RAB) +1:28:39
    115 Lastras (ESP, MOV) +1:31:20

    But there are 26 riders 2 mins clear, i’m not liking Geox’s tactic since Cobo got the red, they dont bother chasing breaks or anything, a very lazy team in my eyes the last few stages, they just sit behind Froome and watch, yeah a great plan, but its not really cycling, its just playing follow the want-to-be leader X(
