    Sky tapping it out on the front of the group - might be a good day for Porte.

    Still a reasonable bunch there. Scarponi looks like he fancies it.

    ...

    Big Jensie still got it at 40+. Dropped the others like a wet rag and has gone solo with a vengance.

    Yet again, the BMC world champ bibs make the World Champ look like he ate all the pies... Ok he is carrying a few pounds, but those bibs make it worse... It was the same with Cadel.

    Sky eating into Jen's lead 10s a km.

    These yellow cofidis helmets are hideous.

    Quintana riding easily near the front. Pitbull still in the pocket.

    I see your Cofidis helmet and raise you Lampre.

    7km, Jens caught. Rich boy 1 goes bankrupt. Europcar rider has half hearted attack thens tops. Rich boy 2 setting the pace.

    Who is going to be the first to show some flair? Before 5km?

    TJVG too near the back of the group at the moment as Gesink has a go.

    Gesink tests the waters...

    SOmebody needs to send a teammate on the attack to try and isolate Porte.

    Le Mevel or Navarro?? Cofidis rider has a go... and now Scarponi joins in.
  • Le Mevel attacks, hobering about 20m off the front.

    Porte down to one teammate

    Gesink pops FFS
  • Scarponi going nowhere.

    Sky going to be isolated in the last 3km.

    Gesink in "not that great a climber" shocker

    Gesink hits the wall in solidarity with Basso.

    Come on Scarponi. ABout time someone was able to drop a domestique. VERY surprising that this domestique on the front who has been on the front end the whole climb has shutdown every attack so far with ease. Makes no sense.
