    Are Astana just riding to keep their riders safe or are they making sure that Lance has a chance of yellow tomorrow. Too many other teams will want the break to come back as well. A bit more open than some stages will be.

    Not sure, if they're just riding to keep themselves out of trouble then fine, but otherwise they are wasting their energy as other teams are happy to help chase

    Millars raided Lances wardrobe for those pesky black socks. Makes sense in the wet conditions! :lol:

    Thanks for the link NervexProf. I've been trying to watch on channelsurfing.net but it's some awful American channel with ads every few minutes, really bad coverage.

    Hope Millar stays away!

    Surely Rabobank and Cervelo will start powering along on the front now?

    Astana on the front, not exactly lining out the peleton though

    Millar's got a very good chance.

    2 min advantage now....

    with the conditions no-one will risk pushing it hard to chase him down....esp with a hard stage tomorrow

    The rule of thumb is one minute per 10km so it'll be close. He's been in front all day and has a hill to climb at the end. But the bunch isn't riding hard, they're leaving Astana to steady things.

    Strange that the teams aren't organising a chase. All the better for Millar
