all this chatter and no spoilers

Well I for one am quite happy I did not see the outcome of stage 4 before watching it. WOW - Astana take the win, but Cancellara keeps the yellow with NO actual time lead - well, must be 10ths or even 100ths of a second, but the official results on the letour web page don't go out that far. I love the close, close, close ones.

Honestly I think this is very good for Contador - gives him time up on pretty much all of the other favorites before the race even gets into the mountains (and plenty - nearly 3 min on Sastre and Cadel) and shows how strong the team is, but Saxobank is still in the position to have to defend yellow, rather than the pressure being on Astana.
