pensées actuelles de le tour
i want cancellara to take the yellow because i am not a fan of contador (and contador will most likely take KOM anyway). lance doesn’t stand a chance of winning any jerseys (i’m not even sure about a stage) unless all of astana works for him (which they won’t because contador is much stronger on the hills and has a greater chance of winning more stages). cancellara’s performance in the 2008 olympics (taking 3rd out of fucking nowhere!) and consistently great riding in ITTs shows that he is a strong rider, especially solo. thus, i think he has a fantastic prospect of winning the yellow jersey overall.
according to velonews, he wants to keep the jersey at least until the team time trials (on tuesday).
sorry, my tumblr will NOT be a spoiler free zone.
