    Svein Tuft has been involved in a big crash but the Canadian is back on his bike after the incident on the descent of the Glandon.

    How's the Glandon?

    Apart from one chute, and Bauer quitting, neither of which we have seen, all is quiet.

    OPQS helping Sky or riding for their own interests?

    I doubt Kwia will get 9 mins on Quintana to get in to white, but they might just be looking to get Kwia up a place in the GC - 12 secs to jump above Rogers, then 5 mins(!!) to Fuglsang.

    Kwia might even fancy the stage if this big bunch in front fragments.

    Looks like the Riblon group have just been caught by the big bunch behind.

    But Rolland is now just off the front (but not by much).

    Who?

    Can't believe how much more relaxing it is watching ITV4. Carlton thinks he's doing radio. He NEVER SHUTS UP

    Tufty will be hoping his crash boosts his lanterne chances.

    Has Tom Veelers abandoned? Le Tour don't list him in the virtual GC - he was lanterne rouge today.

    Still on Canadians, Hesjedal is a fool. Why would you want to go solo this far out?

    Fairdoos Ryder looks like a right prize c0ck in those sunglasses!

    Cycling shades are often badly styled enough but if you're not going to wear them you might as well take the opportunity to wear something that doesn't make you look like a total bellend :)
