More scandals? More heart break? More attacks?With the departure of Michael Rasmussen we can expect the departure of le train orange and the arrival of le train vert d'eco as Discovery is forced to the front to set the pace and control the maillot jaune. While it would be nice to see big 'ol George go for a stage win either tomorrow or Friday, I am sure that Johan Bruyneel will have Hincapie and Popovych slaving away for Contador and Leipheimer.
Will there be a break? Who will get away? Will anyone, other than Evans, threaten Contador and challenge Discovery's near podium sweep? Predictor-Lotto will need to be aggressive and actively mark the Diso pair. I expect Caisse d'Epargne and CSC to both put something together in an attempt to snag the stage win, but Rabobank could channel all of their anger and frustration into a face saving win. It would be sweet if Menchov, Boogerd or Dekker won the stage.
It should be another nail biting day. Let's just hope it is scandal free.
