Contador's crash on saturday looked pretty hard. He's a fair bit down on time, too. He'll get 3rd at a push. I think Porte will struggle to get top 5. Pinot is 25 seconds behind and will get at least second. |

The French Press is not taking this very well, at all I think Froome won by his rivals not doing so well. Contador looked tired, Nibbles rode himself into form it seemed and Quinraina looked to gamble in the alps. Sky had a superb race to control yellow, and there were some phenomenal stages. Saturd... |

Contador is out! Abandons on the descent in the fog! Amaze.
You all went each way on Valverde, didn't you? |

Bastille Day.
Hilltop finish, 7 categorised climbs. Expect mayhem.
Looks insanely hard day. Contador to crack today, as it looks like he's been rolling his shoulders a bit up sme of the climbs. |

Witht he exception of a couple of crashes, stage 4 was pretty dull. Note how Sagan's gmaeplan is to wheelsuck Kittel to the green jersey. But with further Faboo! Pavé today! Pavé! 9 sections of it! If it's dry, Froome's asthma could show up due to the dust that kicks up. if its wet, thencarnage coul... |

it's only Riblon not going around a corner. Contador has attacked and froome'll have a fucking whinge abouit that as well as peopel shouldn't ride bikes fast dfownhill as it is dangerous and he's shit at it. Like Andy Schleck. |

If I were Contador, I'd be spending most of today crying and trying to work it all out. Froome was phenomoenal. As was the man who thought "I'm going to Ventoux to watch the cycling. I'll need a tent, food, booze and stuffed wild boar." |

Interesting that Wiggo has said that if he wins the Tour, he'll ride domestique for Froome in the future! Cynically, I think that it's because there has been a lot of talk about the 100th Tour being very mountain-y, and Froome is the better climber, but not so good at time trialling, compare to Wig... |

I read about those tacks that some idiot spread on the course the other day. Was it Wiggins who called for the pack to slow down so those affected by it could catch up? That's sportsmanship. Yep, it's an unwritten rule that no rider should benefit from mechanical problems with bikes, so Wiggins ord... |

The classic and deciding climb up the vicious Mont Ventoux is live on ITV4 this afternoon, 1pm-3.30pm. Although Alberto Contador is pretty much guaranteed the overall win, the next four or five riders are pretty much fighting over seconds one of the hardest and most histroic climbs in the cycling w... |
