    19km, 45secs. Losing some of his gapo but pedaling with lots of fluidity.

    Domrbowski spinning his lowest gear. In and out of the saddle. Pure climber.

    Bombrowksi has gained another 10secs. Blanco made a move with one rider. Scarponi gone solo. Kreuziger going to have to make the move soon.

    Dombrow out the saddle in the drops! WOW. Been watching some Pantani vids.

    Really looking forward to watching the highlights of this when I get home....oh, maybe not.

    Keep up the updates Frenchie, though i'm worried that if he wins you might disgrace yourself in front of the office.

    17km, 38 secs. Hang on in there.

    Still no one has the balls to attack yet.

    Dombrowski really does look incredibly young.

    Scarponi pulled back almost. LLS made a strong pull for the 20odd bunch before he pulled off.

    Dombrowski has not looked at his power meter once. Pure climber. Setting a huge precedent here. Even if he fails it shows he has the ability and panache to light it up later down the years.

    Schleck got some form.

    Roche pulling for Kreuziger. GC men still havent found their balls.

    Yeah I hate it when people look at their climbers all the time :P

    Andy is still in the front group!

    Consistency is one of the things I love about you Frenchie....

    Gap to Dombrowski has been holding pretty steady at around 35s for the last few minutes

    In a race of this short length I have no idea what these boys think they are doing not going for broke to take the win and the jersey. Just waiting for the TT is useless.

    Its going pretty hard in the bunch by Roche (pain face strapped) but Scarponi still not pulled back (10 secs away) and DB gap steady at 35

    I hope there is some proper photos later of this scenery and Dombrowski.

    Schleck still in there, pulling faces but digging deep. Bodes well for July, hopefully.

    JD will do well to take it to the finish. I hope he does but it will be a tall order.

    DD.

    Pozzo is there but not attacking yet - he really should attack more given he is a pure climber.

    Not seen a climber like this pure in a while. Good memories of Contador.

    The stage profile indicates 3.3km, but the commentary has been implying it's 10k!
