I have to say that Valverdi looks like he may have come here to beat the hell out of everyone.

I'm surprised they didn't give Piti a couple of seconds lead after winning by about 15-20 yards.

Yea, he is going to have some problems from Cadel (I think) in the high mountains and TT, but the guy is riding to dominate, and I like seeing that.

Mamma mia, what a win by Valverde.
 He is in top shape. Whoa.Interesting seeing some other people with GC ambitions - like Evans, Riccò and Schleck right up there at the end. Good signs for the rest of the Tour. Too bad about Soler, who came in something like 3.5 minutes down. Apparently he is quite badly beaten up.

I suppose when he is leading the race in the Pyrennees... the Italians will come out with some damning OP Valverde evidence... and we will have a repeat of last year's scandal.

Soler lost over 3 minutes. Unless he thinks he has a shot at GC (only having 2 riders come to pull him back tells me not.) Should put him in good position for the polkadot when the real mountains start.

But I continue to wonder whether Valverde has a GT in him without a jour sans. I think he will blow up on one of the mountain stages...
