Not fair!
Two actions haven't been fair:
1) Of course Jan did wait for Lance after the crash. Jan often looked back, he had to change his rhythm. Unfair was Lance' attack immediately(!) when he had arrived Jan. Why Lance didn't wait some seconds? Jan did not react in that moment - he just coudn't believe it ... 2) Unfair was Mayo: no work, 2nd place. Mayo has stolen Ullrich 4 sec (= bonus time). Maybe the decisive seconds in this TdF. Let's hope Armstrong doesn't need that 4 sec. in the TT. Manuel |

The attack comes about 1 minute after Lance got back up to Ullrich, and the attack was started by Mayo, not Lance. Lance simply matched it and then surpassed it. |

maybe he should have gone back to Jan and asked if it was ok that he goes?

Let's hope Armstrong doesn't need that 4 sec. in the TT. Manuel I agree. Jan did most of the pulling today up the last two cols. Mayo had one or two feeble attacks and then sucked Ullich's wheel before passing him at the line. Mayo wanted a high finish for the locals, but he got it the cheap way. He ought to lose time for being a scumbag. If those 4 secs are decisive, today's finish will indeed look bad on Mayo. Ed |

He'll pay for it on Saturday, when Ullrich will give him the finger halfway through the ITT. Gerrit |

You're completely full of crap! Well after Lance was back with the group
MAYO launched an attack. Lance merely responded, then put the hammer down. "M. Wehrmann" wrote in message ... Two actions haven't been fair: 1) Of course Jan did wait for Lance after the crash.

I thought the same thing at first, but remember it was that a-hole Mayo who attacked first. Lance went with him and then by him. 2) Unfair was Mayo: no work, 2nd place.
