Hi there all,
Was reading Cadel's web site http://www.cadel.com.au/ and
he mentions that tactically, it's to his teams *disadvantage*
that CSC did not keep the yellow jersey ("the attacks will be coming
now"😉.
I dont get it. Anyone can clarify this?
Why would it differ from if CSC did keep the Yellow?
Thanks,
AC

Because everyone knows that Discovery won't want
to keep the jersey, so they don't have to do all
the work, so they'll let the right attacks go so some
non-threating rider will get the jersey and then their
team will defend it. This means the sprinters
teams then have to work more if they want
bunch finishes.
CSC wanted to keep it, so they would chase down
everything.
