I'm a Mad TDF fan and can see many late nights ahead!

I hope Cadel can do well but after the Prologue Contador looks good.

It will be interesting to see what Armstrong does up Ventoux if he is within 30secs of Contador - can't wait for that one.

Don't write Michael Rogers off either - he would have won the prologue if it wasn't for mechanical problems!!!

Cadel is stuffed tonight, unless he pulls his whole team through the TTT.

Yep - this will confirm the Tour for Contador/Armstrong considering 3 of the Astana riders came in the top 10 of the Prologue!! Although Saxobank have a very strong team with Cancellara, Voigt, O'Grady etc.

Cadel is going to need a miracle to do any good now. Its sad for him that he has never had a really good team around him. Maybe he is too much of a 'nice guy".

Armstrong is a freak!!!!

I'm so in awe of the Astana power.
It's basically Discovery all over again, except potentially better!
Hopefully Contador and Armstrong have a huge bitch fight, because its brewing!

Poor old Cadel, i've followed Silence-Lotto (even ride in their gear) for years now, he'll need a much stronger team than this to do any good...

Did you hear Armstrong say that the mood in his team is 'delicate' after the TTT. He said "That Contador came here to win, but so did I"

Can't wait for the mountain stages!
