    Geraint Thomas is a beast. After helping Uran back he now has half a dozen bottles!

    Why on Earth is Devenyns helping out? They're catching Iglinsky easily.

    Well done the kids in white T-shirts. IMHO 2nd place in the big bike comp for them.

    Surprised nobody's tried to buy a favour from Geraint Thomas in the yellow jersey group. I'm sure his firepower would be much appreciated at the moment.

    As much as I'd love it, he's not staying away is he? 2'40 with 27k left... massive group chasing... not much help up front...
