A team of climbers? I'll applaud if they're not last.
Yeah no chance, but they're the local team.  |

Actually not, looks like they are stopping the clock on the first man who passes the finishing line, seems like they have done it on every team.....  |

On TV they aren't stopping the time with the first rider either.
At least not in TVE. |

Looks more like volcanic.
Freire and Cardoso lost time, so I have no clue who will lead after tomorrow's uphill sprint. No one else is here who's really good at that. Petacchi, sorta.

I feel a bit sorry for Löfkvist.
He was signed by Sky as a captain for the Tour de France (at least that's what he says he expected). They then start chasing Wiggins, who's under contract with Garmin, and ends up getting him, meaning that Löfkvist is no longer the team's leader.
In the Tour, Löfkvist works for Wiggins even though he turns out to be better than W.
Instead, he gets captaincy in the Vuelta - but when he's dropped, the team goes for the possible stage win (which they didn't get) instead of helping him limit the loss.

In all fairness, Lofkvist was never going to be Sky leader, we all knew the Wiggins --> Sky rumor was never really a rumor.
If Lofkvist had any sense he'd have realised that too.
On the TDF and Vuelta thing, I'll just shrug, I have no idea of their tactics some times.

Tour de France ended 25th of July, today it is 28th of August, so about a month. Before the Tour, he had, maxium two to three days.
EDIT: Of course he is not at the same level as before, but better than in the Tour.

Have you noticed the official Spanish commentator always pronouncing HTC as HCT?
