    Yeah, not the best transfers
    Yeah, not the best transfers ever 👿

    You never know though, with any luck they’ll both test positive before the end of the race their points will be removed from the game 😀

    On a serious note, I’m not sure how I feel about Contador being helped to the win by members of other teams… I know they’re friends/ex-teammates and surely if the gap is large enough Tiralongo will take the win (assuming he can keep up on the final climb) but it doesn’t seem fair for him to be getting help from other teams.

    Hmmm, Contador 20 seconds up
    Hmmm, Contador 20 seconds up on Rodriguez/Valverde/Losada
    and a full 1 minute 22 seconds up on a group with Froome and Gesink in it.

    Froome really is completely shot isn’t he?

    EDIT: Contador now 40 seconds up and in virtual red.

    EDIT: 26km to go, gap up to 1:10. Contador looks like he might riding into the lead tonight. Not entirely happy about it to be honest but you’ve got to hand it to him, he’s really gone after this rather than riding defensively. Froome in the main peloton now 2:42 down.

    Contador on the attack
    Contador on the attack early!

    Good move if he can make it stick, Rodriguez is good at the punchy quick attacks, not sure he’d be able to keep up with the pace if Contador can keep this up all the way to the line.

    Does beg the question though, what was Contador eating on his day off? Must have been Weetabix…

    Break falling again with Garmin and RadioShack on the front of the peloton. Doesn’t look like this one is going to be allowed to stay out for too long at this rate.

    I was considering bringing in Mondoroy and Duque for tomorrow but won’t bother now, can’t see either contesting the stage win tomorrow if they’re in the break today.

    Hmmm 😕 thought there’d be more people starting to go ‘sprint based’ today, hope that a random breakaway wins and I don’t lose out too heavily.
