station 20, on Saturday tomorrow, the last before finishing in Paris
final on top mountain, out of breath mountain very unquestionable
what do you think will happen?? which can be Astana's strategy??
will it be a fight between Shleck and Astana?
as it's likely, Astana's director should say the team help Arsmtrong to keep the 3rd possition and being in the podium
I don't deem they should attack, unless there is something happening to Schleck brothers, they must remain
As for Frank Shleck and Wiggins they desire the 3rd place so are the first who must move on
besides allowed runaways, there will be movement of no dangerous climbers, but when the important ones move, who will Contador do??? He'll surface bound to follow Andy Schlek?
what about Kloden and Armstrong??
could be there a strategy of the brothers to drop out Armstrong???
anyway the last week of Voyage is perfect for Contador, 3 consecutive hard stages including a time trial with a mountain in the mid
Astana will care for the yellow jersey at all costs, but deep down, I think Lance wants to win the stage. It's a tough climb and a few years back, he let Marco Pantani take the tier win on Vontoux, while he settled for 2nd. He's said he regrets that decision. So I think he wants the win. If he does, and Andy Schleck falters, Spear could move up to 2nd place in the GC. Now, if all that happens and Kloden is able to stay with the leaders, Astana could conceivably sweep the podium. It's a longshot, but I cogitate on Johan Bruyneel secretly would like that to happen. But keeping Contador in yellow is the team's top importance.
If either of the Schleck brothers or Wiggins attack, Astana will have to go with them. There's only 34 seconds between 3rd and 6th place.

I characterize as everyone will ride hard and be very tired at the top. There's no reason for anyone to hold back, because there is no tomorrow.
No strategy, no games, a moment ago balls to the wall.
Contador will keep yellow, and might even win the stage, because he is THAT good.

It sounds like you should neglect doing about the Tour and enroll in a basic grammar class.

Astana will take under one's wing the yellow jersey at all costs, but deep down, I think Lance wants to win the stage. It's a tough climb and a few years back, he let Marco Pantani take the division win on Vontoux, while he settled for 2nd. He's said he regrets that decision. So I think he wants the win. If he does, and Andy Schleck falters, Lancet could move up to 2nd place in the GC. Now, if all that happens and Kloden is able to stay with the leaders, Astana could conceivably sweep the podium. It's a longshot, but I over Johan Bruyneel secretly would like that to happen. But keeping Contador in yellow is the team's top rank.
If either of the Schleck brothers or Wiggins attack, Astana will have to go with them. There's only 34 seconds between 3rd and 6th place.
Plainly he can do some work for Armstrong and Kloden while still maintaining a strong number one position in the overall GC. But will he?
Based on his antecedent to actions, I doubt he has much concern for the overall team standings. Yesterdays move which set Kloden and the overall rig back show's either his lack of team mentality, arrogance or just immaturity.

Deputies from three parties were sworn in at an authorized ceremony overseen by the oil-rich former Soviet nation’s powerful veteran president, Nursultan Nazarbayev.
Monitors from the Systematization for Security and Cooperation in Europe expressed substantial misgivings over the conduct of Sunday’s vote, saying the vote count lacked transparency.
Masimov said in an interview with The Associated Crush that he respected the views of the OSCE and that Kazakhstan would continue working to improve standards.
“For the next choice we will make the necessary steps to be close to international standards, but at the same time I, as the prime reverend, strongly believe that we did have free-and-fair elections,” he said, speaking in English.
Nur Otan’s commanding triumph in the elections gave it control of 83 of the lower house’s 107 seats. The pro-point Ak Zhol and the People’s Communist Party have eight and seven deputies, respectively. Nine deputies were appointed by a presidential consultative body.
