    ooooh well this is exciting

    What's the tactic from SKY? Wiggins is hiding?

    No he's not, he's been sitting on Evans' wheel for almost the whole climb.

    The contrast between Uran's and Agnoli's facial expressions is amazing. Feel for Agnoli - looks like that really hurts.

    Reminds me of how I feel whilst climbing at a pace almost 100% slower than what they are currently riding ;)

    Uran Uran going on the attack! Brilliant. Now no Sky riders on the front of the group; what does that mean for Wiggins?
    Are you seriously asking?
    They just sit in and let others do the chasing.
    astana will not panic yet but cannot afford to loose too much or Uran will be a major threat and then they will have more trouble in next stages if two sky rider close at top of leader board.

    I understand that from the point of view of winning the stage - but in terms of winning the GC I would have thought that they might like Wiggins to make some time up from Nibali if possible on a stage like this. Or is it more a case of not losing any more time to Nibali?

    What I was sort of getting at was, does this mean that they now might be preferring Uran Uran for GC over Wiggins? Or are they planning on doing what they did with Porte and Froome in the Criterium International?

    (Can you tell I'm not an expert?)

    3kms to go is when it gets very steep.... Reports of 20% :shock:

    Uran's got very chance of winning unless he rides hard against the left hand barrier and someone "sneaks up" on his right hand side...

    4.4 km to go for Uran. He has this unless Nibali jumps.

    I sometimes wonder if some of the comments are from people who aren't even watching.

    Uran looks like he's on a low intensity training ride!

    No need for Nibali to panic. He is older and wiser now. GO Majka.
