Thumbs Up for Purito




Thumbs Up for Purito...

With five category climbs, today's exciting finish saw Joaquim Rodriguez handily passed Alberto Contador to win the 150km mountain stage to Puerto de Ancares.


"Today I showed that I am also strong in the long climbs, although I recognize that in some moments I had trouble keeping up because Contador's attacks were incredible. There are several demanding stages left and the duel isn't just between Contador and me. I think Valverde and Froome are very close and either one can go for it."

Purito is only 22 seconds ahead of Contador in GC and tomorrow's another high mountain stage...




Stage 15: another high mountain dilemma.
