You look at the strength of the Sky train and it is hard to know how anyone could attack it if they tried.

Hope Big Tom D can stick this

He looked comfortable enough chasing Froome down everytime he responded but yeah he must have been dead on his feet not to have a go.

I dunno, I reckon he's planning to just do absolutely nothing other than mark Froome until week 3.

Yeah a friend of mine just said that maybe Nairo doesn't want to be in yellow yet, but to be honest the gulf between Sky and Movistar was so big I don't think it's a question of what he wants.

I think Movistar loaded the break with riders so Quintana could use them as a launch pad. I don't think they were expecting Sky to let it go out to 10+ minutes to nullify that. Also Landa did an absolute monster turn on the penultimate climb to stop anyone having a crack on the steep bits that Froome doesn't like.

He either doesn't have the legs or is saving his powder for the third week when Froome tends to be weaker. I'm really hoping its the second

If there's more than one way to do a job, and one of those ways will result in disaster, then he will do it that way.

Hard to tell with the mask he's always wearing. The ultimate stone poker face.
