    Gone are the days though of Armstrong's team having 9 men driving the peloton until the final climb. Bruyneel can't rely on his usual brute force approach to race tactics

    Armstrong: The end. Pace isn't high either.

    So, who was it who was saying Astana had a rubbish team?

    Horner should drop the old man to at least give them any chance of preserving any dignity.
    Make mine an Italian, with Campagnolo on the side..

    Now Astana on the front to really put LA in trouble!

    Kloden and Vino gone!

    Bang Bang Bang!

    I predict a big push on the final climb from the likes of Schleck and Contador to put some time into the other contenders....

    I wish Harmon would be able to spot Basso. I mean, FFS, it's not that bloody hard.
