15:45 - Lelangue Confident In Evans
“Cancellara could still be in yellow at the end of the day,” said directeur sportif of the BMC team, John Lelangue. “It depends on how the race is unfolds. If there is a breakaway, there could be a big fight for the jersey from an opportunist. We have to find a good opportunity and always focus on the main objective. “Our whole team is great after the first week of the Tour. We are confident and we don’t have any problems.”
15:45 - Renshaw Also Drops Back
Mark Renshaw (THR) has also been dropped by the peloton.
Cav and now Renshaw dropped. They’ve done a lot of work together the last few days.
THR is heavy heavy heavy w/ time-tialers and sprinters - do they have any serious climbers, or a credible GC contender?
Lead 5 are down to 2:45 now. Telecom is really pushing the pace on the front of the Peleton - they just began the second climb and they have the peleton completely strung out already.
