    Looks like the rest are happy to let the break get established. Even if Rolland gets all the intermediate points, Froome or Quintana can take the jersey with a high place at the end of the stage. Double points & all that.

    almost 2 mins on the main field now.

    Group of chasers 30s behind the lead 4.

    Movistar to the front of the main field, keeping Quintana's KoM alive?

    Turns out that Froome is in fact identical twins that take it in turns to ride. Quintana loses white Jersey as it is proved he is in fact Yoko Ono.

    I hope froome or Quintana wins the stage and wipes out all Ro-Land's efforts. Just because I'm evil. I'd actually like to see Ro-Land win a stage or summink.

    Its gonna be a dud day. Unless we see an elevated bike again. The main guys will of course leave it until half way the climb to Semnoz...

    Kirby is peeing me off again with his bs about how there will be racing tomorrow if the gaps are small. Does he have any clue?

    I'm never forgiving Eurosport for putting such a rich and subtle spectacle in the hands of a golf club bore.

    Sean, Sean- how on earth do you manage not to kill The Kirby-Grip? Even I could do a better job commentating.
