    Lets face it, at 4km from the finish Froome could just pace himself to the line and not bother covering any of these attacks. He wouldn't lose much time at all

    Richie Porte into Smiling Assassin mode.

    Amazing isn't it, the more it hurts the more he smiles! And looks so relaxed!

    I actually think its a grimace that just looks like a smile. But he does look so relaxed.

    Must hurt for Bertie to be reeled in by one of his former domestiques.
    Bertie needs a steak.

    Good work from Bauke to hang on so far.

    Ten Dam just disgusts me the way he is constantly drooling and dribbling all over himself

    OH WILL YOU LOOK AT THAT

    Mr Porte gets dropped by 100m then uses his SKY TM powers of recovery to make it back and hit the front. WTF :roll:

    I tink it's more like 10k for the yellow jersey group isnt it?

    Excellent point - I was just reading the distance off the screen which as you say refers to Costa.

    Still think it's too close to the end of a not hard enough stage to make any real time on Froome.

    Did anyone pick Rui Costa for PTP?

    With those glasses he looks like he could be the next Transitions Lenses man.

    Great ride from Costa.

    With all their weapons let's hope they carry the fight through Saturday.

    Fark!

    I don't like J-Rod but fair play. He is going to move a fair way up the GC tonight and it was his team's move that made it happen.

    reshuffle on the GC from 2nd to 10th, the man says.

    Some poor decisions by the director at the moment - let's watch the 15th place rider arrive!!

    Isn't it clear? Froome stays in 1st, most other positions could be subject to change.

    Froome is an idiot. He should just make sure he gets down safely.
