2) Wiggins may crack tomorrow. You are right, but the odds are between the two is Lance will crack before Wiggins. Lance has experience in this situation, but I haven't seen Wiggins put under pressure.
3) Lance admitted in his post race interview that he cannot match the accelerations of the young guys.
4) His comeback today was impressive I agree. Others came back also, but Lance did it when they had more pressure on. Wow.

Richard,
Lance was playing possum the other day. Did you see Contador look around when he was told by radio that Lance was bridging? Even if he cracks and doesn't do well you know he will not go down without a fight. I was watching as Armstrong was bridging, his legs look awesome. I don't think it is over yet, in fact it is just beginning. A great stage today!
