What a cock Contador is. And the bullshit apology that followed...
Can't stand this type of behaviour. He would have known full well what was going on...the only reason he's apologising is for public relations...he's not sorry he did it.

@ BusterBoy
How are you so sure this is merely PR. Historically Contador has proven to be a gentlemen and relatively classy racer. When all the shit slinging was going down during last year's tour, Contador didn't lash out at Lance @ posse despite the fact they had fully abandoned him. I don't think he's the unscrupulous a-hole you believe him to be.
Even if Schleck hadn't lost time yesterday, I don't think he could hold on to yellow. Contador will destroy him in the TT... not to mention Menchov, who despite being down a couple minutes has proven himself a very capable TT'er.
Here are my podium picks:
1) AC
2) Menchov
3) Schleck

seriously Bort, if it wasn't going to be Schleck causing an upset, all I wanted to happen was for Contador to beat him hands down in the time trial just so there would be no question about who was the best man this year.
He's won, but I say it leaves a bad taste in the mouth.
Anyway, big day for the sprinters, can't wait to see Cav go without Renshaw again.

I have to revise my prediciton after stage 17:
1) AC
2) Schleck
3) MenchovGreat stage today. GO RYDER! Garmin better dump Vande Velde and go with Ryder next year for GC. He's earned their support.

So Contador wins the tour by roughly the same amount of time he stole from Schleck on the mountain stage when Schleck threw his chain.
The head to head race up the tourmalet was epic and one of the best pieces of cycling I've seen - the glare from Schleck to Contador when Contador couldn't shake him was amazing. The were both incredible.
BUT this is a hollow win overall because of his actions. I hope Schleck improves further next season and takes the jersey.

^^ bort, I have no idea what I'm talking about really...just yanking some chain.
But really, how could he not know?
Then again, I could be totally wrong!
