Contador made a great move, and then did it again, and again. He deserves much credit for upping the competition today. Evans was fantastic in responding, and Sanchez--go Sammy go!

Very true! I like how Contador rides and today's repeated attacks were great to see, but I'm still wondering about the clenbuterol thing. I guess one could argue it is not any worse the Frank Schleck being involved with Eufemiano Fuentes...

Why does Contador always do so damn well after the second rest day!? Did he enjoy another steak yesterday?

Uh, maybe he's rested. Just a thought. It's not like he blew everyone away. Like Thor. Again. Hmmmmm....

Does anyone else find this year's Versus transmission of the Tour deeply annoying? They keep yapping and they do not show the race! Could they talk while we get to see race?

E u r o s p o r t has great coverage, fewer and shorter commercials, in-depth commentary. It's great to not have a TV! Originally Posted by pll

Are you watching the live coverage or the primetime show? IMO, the live show during the day is much better. Originally Posted by pll

Watching right now. It took until 7:24AM to see the first image of the race... I can see in online sites the race images always start earlier than Versus. Originally Posted by Becky
