I think CSC chased for several reasons--one, they are concerned with Ullrich upsetting Basso. Armstrong is pretty secure, but Basso will be knocked out of his spot before Armstrong, so... The other is experience. The posties stayed very calm, and almost looked like they didnt care. They knew they had plenty of time to catch Ullrich's solo break. Basso, on the other hand, looked a bit edgy.
Besides, theres nothing to lose by cooperating. I think CSC knows Basso isnt gonna win barring something happening to Armstrong, and they might as well work together to keep Ullrich from upsetting the status quo.
