Like Evans, I do not think that either Nibali or Menchov are going to cut 4:00-5:00 minutes into Wiggins and thus, think this TdF is over... I could be wrong, but I'm calling it now....

You can call me wrong and quote me a week from tomorrow(the 19th), where either Evans, Nibali or Menchov will not only have to have Yellow, but realistically, a gap on Wiggins....

Not saying you are wrong at all, but a lot of things can happen and that's one of the reasons this race is so beloved. 4-5 minutes is a big deal for sure, but he was able to build that gap in 10 days; it can be taken away just as quick. One day like Hesjedal had and that's it...

I'm cheering for Wiggins, but there is a lot of racing left and anything can happen. Tomorrow is another tough day and then stages 14, 16 and 17 in the Pyrenees will be tough on everyone.
