He looks lean but knackered!

Hats off though for sticking with it this far, I hope he gets the TT win.

    Would be nice to win tomorrow but will he?
    Who else is in with a shout?
    There are better TTers there then Contador aren't there?

    A TT at the end of a GT especially one like this is more about recovery I would imagine. I doubt it will provide as much drama as this though!

    Millar is a vet, you'd expect him to finish a GT as standard.

    MIllar has won a TT late in a GT before (at the Vuelta) so he has a chance, particularly as he looks to have been saving himself (or maybe just surviving) for the second half of the Giro.

    I'd just like to see anyone else but Contador win, to at least add some kind of drama to the day, otherwise it's just going to be a lap of honour for Alberto.

    Weather forecast is for dry and warm with little wind - ideal. Menchov might still fall off though?!
