Was a great battle today, I love the killer eyes from Schleck, right after Contadors attack :)

Too bad Contador is so strong :(

*edit*
The medal of today goes to Samuel Sanchez, IMO.
Doesn't look too good for Schleck with an upcoming time trial :<

Think Contador wont give it away anymore
they use dope in almost every sport..

Since when did schleck become dutch?

e* wtf is luxembourg or w/e stealing our flag!
:DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDd
Parent
holland, belgium and luxemborg all same shit:D why dont you let france have one part of belgium and the rest you call holland ?:D:D
Parent
belgium has a german part aswell and in luxembourgh they pretty much all talk french/german and a little bit of dutch. What you just said is the same as putting denmark with norway or something similar
Parent
german = horizontal + red and yellow on different place

belgian = vertical

pretty obvious to recognize
Parent
and you say that to me why?
Parent
very :PPPPPPPP
CHEATERS only, even worse than ET
if you think schleck has a still chance to win, you are wrong!
he does have a chance, if contador has a flat tire or if he falls or w/e :D

anything can happen, but on paper, contador will get more additional time at the time trial
Parent
Awsome finish!.

Did tourmalet 2 weeks ago on a trip from Bayonne to Perpignan and 20km/h up that mountain after 150km is just insane.
ez win for Contador :)
