    Brajkovic doesn't look too bothered...

    Brajkovic doing well, doesn't look like he's killing himself either.

    How long to go? Was hoping to watch the end after my race at the hq but they didn't seem inclined to switch it from car racing. Glad I made it back for the finale.

    Someone seems to have superglued Brajkovic's arse to his saddle... nice stretch too!

    Bertie doesn't seem to have a sting to his attacks, a bit overweight still? Taji riding itjust right too, just stick with him, he doesn't need to do anything.

    How many km to go when Contador attacked?

    Contador went at 9km, Brajkovic didn't try and match his acceleration, just came across at his own pace. Everyone else got dropped.

    Thanks Rokkala. That is a very decent distance to attack from.

    Why is bertles jumping all over Sly's attacks?

    Sly goes over the top of VDB, contador does same... Taji right on it. He's riding a stormer.

    Springboard. Backstedt nailed it... Contador should have waited for Szmyd to get further ahead, then gone after him.

    Well if he can climb like this then he is going to podium on the Tour, along with his ability to crush the TTs..................leader for RS?!

    I really really hope he gets dropped hard before the end.

    Thing is AFX he's done it to VDB, Sly, Coppel.... he's beasting himself while his rival just pulls himself up. He's not looking a tactical genius right now. Brajkovic has kept his powder dry all the way, not wasted any energy.

    Contador is definitely not at his best...he just can't keep the high tempo going.

    Is Brajkovic actually breathing?

    It's like Gallopin said a couple of days ago. Bert isn't 100%, but it's the Dauphine. He'll be 100% next month.

    FORZA SLY!!!!

    Bertie wants the stage more than the GC. Y

    I can't imagine Gallopin is in the car yelling "Get on Coppel's wheel! NOW!" Somehow.
