Schleck should be seen next to the Yellow Jersey for pics tomorrow AM - shaking hands all is forgiven. Then, he will need to show the legs he has been reserving for no reason I can understand. He had Alberto when he was suffering allergies on the first climb of any significance. And but for le mechanical today he did seem to have 5 or 6 lengths on Alberto on that attack.
But I digress - point is for Andy to consider how he wants to be remembered. He must show the classy, forgiving appearance to put Alberto off his guard and give The Race a hug moment. But inside, does Andy have the fire? I mean really? He must know his TT will lose 1.5min to Contador. If he is wearing the yellow then maybe only 1min, but still - why the wait for the Tourmalet?
Did anyone notice how Andy let the pack re-merge just before he jumped his last, fatal, time? See how there was traffic for Contador? If this was intentional it is a teachable moment about tactics.
