    Rojas in the break means HTC closing the gap. 95 km done and still no real break. 20 km until the intermediate

    Looks like this one will finally get a gap.

    If that group sticks then I see another stage with a Norwegian flag next to it!

    There'll be a few attacks over the last climb because the rest of the group won't want to get to the final run in with EBH and Hushovd still in there. I hope Roy finally gets his win.

    EBH will win this.

    He does well on days that News International have terrible days. On the day the NotW was shut he won the stage. On the day Rebekah Brooks resigned he was in the winning break. Today the Murdochs are being grilled and he's in the break again

    He makes it his personal mission to cheer up James Murdoch.

    Weather looks absolutely vile.
    Thor's type of weather, being a hard Norseman?

    Devenyns gives himself an advance birthday present (it's his birthday on Friday).

    Someone will win from this group, anyway. 33 km to go... 6 minute lead.

    Ten Dam is back with the medical car receiving treatment to his face. The weather will have affected the dressing around his wounds. He's a tough nut, and he's hanging in there.
    Poor bloke. Must be an infection risk for those riding wounded with all that grubby water being sprayed all over them.

    any action from main group on the climb?
    love to see voekler give it a go on the descent but good sense will probably prevail i guess in these conditions...

    Would like to see someone have a go for a bit of time. Maybe Samu again.
    The climb doesn't seem that suited to an attack.

    Hesjedal would be the first Canadian stage winner since Steve Bauer in 1988.

    Bert attacks!

    Contador has put in an attack. He's got a few seconds at the moment.

    Well, that put the cat amongst the pigeons! Will they have the guts to carry on? Ah, no Basso & Cunego, so they might be interested.

    Contador looks fooked from that attack.

    The rest of the GC contenders are back but I reckon someone else will put in a dig before the summit.
