    Eurosport take two ad breaks in 8km :(

    Suppose if they have non in the last 30mins or so then it aint too bad...

    Why are Saxo Bank helping Liquigas. Surely Schleck is out of it, no point them helping, should be saving their legs to attack on the last climb...

    Schleck isn't out of it. Nibali has cracked worse than 3 minutes before.

    Fckin' Quintana … that creep can roll, man.

    Even with that, the guys 5 minutes behind him aren't too relevant, it's Nibali who needs to be broken, and they need to drop him.

    Although as Schleck's just attacked, I guess that's why...

    Schleck stirs the pot. A very early attack. Liquigas down to two.

    + Willems in the breakaway

    Schleck is not gaining much.

    [Somewhere in St Moritz]

    Ring ring...

    "hello"

    "Ciao Michele, what should I do"

    <pause>

    "let him hang"

    20k's to go 1:45 the gap - Sanchez presumably the best bet to stay away but I expect the pack to gobble them up with 10k to go - and J Rod to do his stuff

    Breakaway stretching away. Lulu becoming dangerous.
    Cofidis stick a man on the front.
    Maybe Moncoutie fancies it?
