    Contador has a different level of motivation and tenacity from the rest of these guys. It’s all in his head.

    and all round ability + ability to recover. So vital for the GTs.

    2nd check, Aru +3.

    I wonder how Cataldo has gone. He is not on the TT time tickers.

    Barring accidents, Contador can cruise in the wheels all the way to the Tour. The double is ON!

    Aru seems to be struggling up the climb, but gaining time on the flat sections.

    Unfortunately (for the fans) the Giro could be over. That TT was a bit too long.
