Tour de France 2015: Stage 12 **Spoiler**

I think Quintana was actually complaining it was too hot for him the other day so this might be better as far as he's concerned. Froome has won uphill in wet conditions before in the Dauphine, Romandie and CI IIRC.Hows does Froome do in the wet?
We know Quintana seems unaffected by bad weather (or hot weather for that matter).0 -

Hopefully this rain means Contador can breathe properly on the final climb.
Shame about Meintjes. Looking bashed up but still rolling through. Top rider.Contador is the Greatest0 -
Some people are avoiding the test match.Sounds like the second test is equally as gripping
That would be most sensible people.Team My Man 2018: David gaudu, Pierre Latour, Romain Bardet, Thibaut pinot, Alexandre Geniez, Florian Senechal, Warren Barguil, Benoit Cosnefroy0 -
The two boys out front are starting to look like a mighty impressive ride.
Control yourself0 -
Sep's shoulders not benefiting from drafting the little flower.
He should really take most of the descent/flat by himself given he rode the entire climb on Kwiatek's wheel.
Thankfully he is.Contador is the Greatest0 -

Agreed. I hope they make it and duke it out for the win. Happy for either to take it TBH.0 -
Very large rain0

Carlton has been silenced by the weather conditions at the finish, it's wonderful0

How do the front 2 play this then? Kwia attack, Sep sprint?
In every realistic scenario I can think of, Sep gets dropped.
COME ON SEP, HANG ON IN THERE.0 -
Shame, but I don't see how Sep can possibly win this. If he drops Kwia on an HC that would be shameful for the world champ, and can't see how he could beat him in an uphill (?) sprint finish. Maybe in an ironic twist of fate Kwia will puncture in the final moments...0

There goes Kwia0

Congratulations Sep. Nice effort. I hope you enjoyed it as we certainly did.
Now I hope Kwiatek can hang on to his margin.Contador is the Greatest0 -
Something so special about seeing the world's camp jersey attacking in horrible conditions.
Just makes me really smile.It's not so much about winning, I just hate losing.0 -
