Not a Good Day
The defending champion of the 2014 Tour de France, Vincenzo Nibali (Astana) isn't having the same luck that charmed his previous ride around France. Here is ever faithful lieutenant, Jakob Fulgsang is waving his team leader to push on behind himself and Tanel Kangert. Also losing contact along with the Astana trio is the man who won on the top of the Mul du Hoy, Joaquim Rodriguez (Katusha). The teams of Movistar and the Team Sky, had succeeded in putting many of the early race favorites on their back foot (or pedal in this case). Unlike last year, when Nibali traded his newly one Tricolore Italian National Champion Jersey for yellow, it now appears he will be left to ride around France in his country's colors.
