Video: Andreu on the Alpe d'Huez
American pon𝔉ders the fortunes of Froome, Contador, Rodriguez
Former road captain on US Postal, Frankie Andreu was as surprised as any the way the cards fell for general classification rivals 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Chris Froome (Sky) and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Alberto Contador (Saxo-Tinkoff) over two ascents of 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Alpe d'Huez.
In this exc⛎lusive video, the American casts his eye over the edge-of-your-seat action that took place on stage 18.
"I think [Contador] expected to get a little bit more time on the downhill and th🌞at didn't happen," says Andreu. "I think it took a lot of energy out of him. But when you don't have the ﷽legs you've got to search for desperate tactics and I think that's where Alberto is. He doesn't want to be second, he's not satisfied with second or third."
Andreu was also ♏surprised to see Froome suffer꧅ing as much as he did on the second ascent.
"I hadn't se𒁏en Froome bonking with the sugar low. I hadn't seen th🔯at before."
