Subject: Tour de France 2010
Why do you think, they not respect them?
I think tomorrow we won't see any attacks from the favourites, because the last climb is to far from the finish.

The upside of Contador's move today was that he'll probably win the Tour De France. The downside is that the audience booed. To paraphrase Liberace, Contador will probably cry all the way to the top of the podium...
I'm not sure. We saw that Andy is very strong this year in mountains stages and i think that the victory will be played thursday.
Unfortunately I missed this stage! :-(
Just read that Contador got yellow because of an attack while Schleck had a defect.

He did his job... He attacks him as Andy is having problems with his bike, it doesnt look intentional, it just happen at the same time...
what do you do? they've waited for him on the paves already, they have to have a race at some point. Schleck had no team mates to help him so I'd be looking there first.
If Contador waits for Andy, Menchov who is pretty strong in TT would have benefited too much.
Imo, this things happen, it's a race incident... it's just bad luck.

I saw it on youtube now ;-)
And before I read some news sites, some of which think it was unfair (Swiss and Austrian media) and in Germany some write it was unfair, some write it was a normal race incident.
In my opinion is it was a legal attack, unfortunate for Schleck that it happened at the worst possible time. Nothing unfair, but surely not gentlemen like.
However, his interviews (and the ones from Astana) were complete rubbish what I've read. He said he didn't see that Andy had a problem and another one said Menchov and Sanchez attacked so Contador had to follow them. Well, on the TV images I've seen it's clearly Contador who attacks and not the other ones and he must have seen that Andy had a problem. Think that shows that Astana themselves aren't completely proud of what happened ;-)
Anyway, was nothing wrong imo but I hope this incident isn't gonna decide the Tour! ;-)

Like you I think everybody reacted in the heat of the moment...
Plenty of km to go; it will sort itself out.

Well, I'm not sure what to think of Armstrong, but the French do and they made sure everyone knows it, every year again unfortunately.
Well, since he's innocent until proven guilty. So people shouldn't boo a 7 times champion. Especially since he still finishes their tour despite being completely chanceless.
Its probably his last tour too, so i really pity the fool who boo´s Lance.
