I thought Contador attacking the way he did was weird

he was always more likely to lose his own teammate than the Schlecks

I don't think Contador trusts his team much after the Armstrong stuff, so suspects that explains it.

Time trial is where riders rise against the clock rather than each other. Is a specific skill - Wiggo is /used to be expoert at it, cos he was a track cyclist rather than a road cyclist.

I don't think he'll make up enough tim,e to get on the podium tho.
