I think he was out for himself, Klöden was chasing him....

I have to agree the Vinno was out for himself –

I also believe injuries sustained by Jan in the crash with the team car the day before the TdF started were down-played. You saw Jan’s performance in the prologue, not really the world class TT effort he is known for, and he wasn’t really looking good until later in the race when he was feeling better, and fitter.

I’m looking forward to a good race this year. I’ve been an Ullrich fan since 96’ win or loose, this year will not be any different for me.

I agree, by the last time trial we saw him take the third place podium

Too bad Pantani (the greatest cyclist that ever lived), was set up and eliminated by "you know who", and now that Tyler is being set-up, I don't really know or care!

What is this World coming to?
