    Good effort. It's been a fittingly feisty image to tame.

    Can't quite believe the lack of proper gentlemen on this this thread.

    10 LAPS.

    WHY????

    I have never understood that.

    There's next to nothing for the commentators to say, until lap ten!

    I mean, come ON, they're not going to disqualify anyone today for being slow, are they?

    I think it's so they can fit in a few more Ritchie Froome mentions on the commentary.

    I was really hoping he'd finish the sentence with a Christopher Porte... but alas!

    Nice little mention for EBH there with a mention of the "tomb of the unknown shoulder".

    Froome and Porte's faces while watching the planes, they were like a couple of little boys at a fair. Bless.

    If we don't get Jean Michel Jarre doing a cover version of the Channel 4 TDF theme, I'll be disappointed...

    So why ten laps, especially? What's wrong with five?

    It should be 11 as it's 1 better than 10
