    looks like Stannards up the front now
    Pain hurts much less if its topped off with beating your mates to top of a climb.

    Stannard is putting some serious power down. Big gap in a short time and Chavanel can hardly hold the wheel!

    Is that a plastic bag on the katusha rider's head?

    Someone needs to tell the graphics guys that Stannard is not Johan van Summeren.

    Roelandts with his old teammate.

    I wonder if doping skeletons are negotiated away for race cooperation.

    Would love it if Stannard won this!
  • Gilbert back in the group.

    Chavanel helping Cav loads here.

    Almost afraid to imagine it- but he would certainly be a worthy winner.

    Vorganov refusing to take a turn. I guess he's smoked.

    Stannard looks pretty powerful here and trying to force but the others arent going for this.

    This is what happens when Sky don't ride tempo - riders like Stannard get a chance to race like real men

    I'm sure lots of people will be glad to see a Sky rider looking down through effort and pain rather than to read his power meter.

    If Cav is still in the chase group having Chavanel up front could be good for him as it will force other teams to chase seeing as Cav seems to have very few OPQS guys left.

    No chance Stannard is going to beat Chavanel in a sprint - if he hasn't been dropped on Poggio already that is..

    Stannard...wow

    Would love Chavanel and him to drop this Russian then make it to the finish.

    The plastic bag on Katusha rider's head is so un-aero it is slowing him on the climb! That or he's knackered.
