We guess that we weren't the only ones wondering if that lead Cadel Evans had on Alberto Contador and Andy Schleck going into today's stage wasn't a matter of concern to these two. When the Australian fell off the back of the pace set by Dani Navarro, the two contenders jumped all over it. Schleck and Contador attacking 8 kilometres from the top of the Col de la Madeleine! What a spectacle those two guys put on.A great sideshow was Samuel Sánchez's descent from the same peak. A case study in how that's done.
Despite all the above, we still don't like the way Contador looks on the bike this year.

To me Contador looked better on the bike than Schleck. You only look around when you feel strong and C. gazed around quite a lot.
And Bradley is sadly failing his challenge. I fear that honours will be even on those two bets, at one each, unless the pyrenees are really surprising.
Sure. It's just a sensation that he's more putting up with the pace than forcing it. Schleck, according to today's press, was gunning for Contador because he noticed that he was having his ups and downs over the course of the day.
In any regard, these two inhabit some other zone.
