What a fantastic opener by Ullrich on Tourmalet today. He will crush Armstrong. I think Ullrich is just playing with him right now..

My guess is that Ullrich will beat Armstrong by at least a couple of minutes on Luz-Ardiden. Vinokourov doesn't look strong today.

Mayo is 4 minutes down so I don't think he will be able to get the top spot, but he can make the top-3 because it seems that Vino is going down today.

I have been following slightly and I want to believe that lance will pull it out. Maybe he is just taking a different approach this time around.

Waiting for him, or at least not speeding up, was the only right thing to do.

I didn't see the crash when it happened. So how did ullrich wait on him?

Is Lance ahead of Ullrich in the stage or behind?

I guess it doesn't matter much if they waited or not... Ullrich is 1 minute behind now..

Ullrich didn't speed up, you just don't do that in the tour de france. They took it slow, also saw Tyler telling them to keep it down.

Announcer say it should be in the bag, unless something crazy happens. I am no Biking expert. I got Dante for that

Lance looks to be in good right now.

Waiting for Lance was the right thiing to do. The announcer said one of the unwritten rules of pro cycling is that you don't take advantage of another's misfortune. Lance had done the same thing for Ulrich before when he had bike trouble and Lance slowed down for him. Now that's sportsmanship!
