    Has the Voekler group caught Basso?

    Yep, pack 1:31 behind TV has made up 20 secs on his worst position.

    Evans group now at 12 secs back from leaders.

    WOW! WOW. What an amazing ride by Evans (and to a smaller degree Casar)!!

    Go Cadel Go.

    I used to dislike Evans, not anymore! I really want him to win the whole thing.

    Looking at that SRM live website, the autobus are about 12 minutes behind.

    how do you see the gap on that site ? I'm looking at it and can only see speed, bpm etc

    If I were the Confidis DS I'd be telling Europcar to tell Roland to jack that in, or you're on your own chasing this down

    Wonder if the bus can limit their losses as all the favourites catch their breath at the front?

    Not sure, this has paid off perfectly for Andy. His brother is now in position to take the time he needs and who has paid in energy for this?

    Contador and Evans.

    This is a very good day for the schlecks, if i was Andy i'd be quitely chuckling to myself knowing I only had to beat an Evans who has had to chase solo versus groups in the last two days, up a mountain in the third week of a stage race. Schlecks have won now, thanks contador! :lol:

    I take a note of the time when the leaders pass a notable mark on the map. There's nothing actually on the website.

    To make it easier though, Knees and El Fares are in Voeckler's group now.

    If I were the Europcar DS I'd tell my guys to stop chasing. The white jersey they actually could win. The yellow is gone.

    You're right, but I wouldn't want to have that conversation with Voeckler after the stage!

    And in fairness I didn't expect TV to get back to the AS/AC group.
